Since 2002, numerous diverse bottlings of the \u003cstrong\u003ehandcrafted Hercynian Single Malt\u003c\/strong\u003e have been released under the brand The Glen Els, known as ElsBurn since 2019. Each of them is a milestone in taste on the journey of the traditionally working Lower Saxon distillery and a guide to its \u003cstrong\u003eextraordinary whisky diversity\u003c\/strong\u003e. This diversity is based not only on various aging times but also on the large selection of hand-picked oak casks in various sizes, which were \u003cstrong\u003epreviously filled with a wide range of southern and sweet wines\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe newest bottling from the Harz craftsmen, part of the Wayfare series – meaning 'journey' – also benefits from this cask diversity. The similarity in name to The Journey, ElsBurn's cornerstone series, is no coincidence: \u003cstrong\u003ebottled at cask strength for even more intense aromas, the Wayfare Edition is the big whisky brother of the milder Journey\u003c\/strong\u003e. Originally, the single malts in the series were released as vintage bottlings, now in batches of at least 2,000 bottles.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLike its predecessors, \u003cstrong\u003eBatch 001 2020\u003c\/strong\u003e is a fine composition of the different cask types used by the distillers from the Elsbach Valley. The Wayfare distillates matured in selected casks for \u003cstrong\u003eup to nine years\u003c\/strong\u003e. \u003cstrong\u003eSherry Casks\u003c\/strong\u003e account for the largest share at 50 percent. In addition to \u003cstrong\u003ePort wine casks\u003c\/strong\u003e, the other half consists of casks that were previously filled with \u003cstrong\u003eMálaga\u003c\/strong\u003e, an Andalusian sweet wine, the French red wine \u003cstrong\u003eClairet\u003c\/strong\u003e, and the dessert wine \u003cstrong\u003eMarsala\u003c\/strong\u003e. The aromas characterizing the newest Wayfare are accordingly enticing. They move in a \u003cstrong\u003efruity-malty\u003c\/strong\u003e direction with wonderful notes of bittersweet dark chocolate, buttery-soft caramel, and sparkling orange. \u003cstrong\u003eAn enticing single malt for all who wish to continue their journey of discovery through the ElsBurn range and experience new dimensions!\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hercynian Distilling Co.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55868164800844,"sku":"6188","price":66.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0950\/7235\/4636\/files\/560121-1.jpg?v=1762488363","url":"https:\/\/ka3irg-7v.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/elsburn-wayfare-batch-001","provider":"Feinste-Weine.de","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
