Oloroso sherry casks are highly sought after by the whisky industry. It adds a lot of richness when spirits are matured in casks that were seasoned with Oloroso. Cream sherry is a semi sweet wine which is obtained exclusively from oxidative ageing and involves blending the Oloroso (in what is known as cabeceo) with an amount of Pedro Ximénez, hence it being commonly known as Sweet Oloroso. Classic Pedro Ximénez will display aromas and flavours of raisins, dates and dried figs, often combined with a spicy note and chocolate. 2nd Life: In their second life, they were coopered down to 50 Litre Barrels by the Tasmanian Tiger Cooperage and used to hold and mature some of the country’s most celebrated Tasmanian Single Malt Whisky for several years. 3rd Life: These barrels are now looking for their 3rd home at your home or brewery or distillery.
