About This Whisky
The Lakes The Chocolatier Limited Edition is a sherry-led single malt crafted by Sarah Burgess, former Macallan Lead Whiskymaker, marking her final release with the distillery. Matured in a combination of European and American oak sherry casks with a small proportion of ex-bourbon influence, and finished in ex-sherry casks, this whisky showcases The Lakes’ signature élevage process, layering complexity through multi-cask maturation.

Colour: Tawny
Nose: Indulgent sherry influence builds into chocolate and ginger biscuit, with cocoa, white peach and brandy snap notes
