Ring of Embers: Tastillery Cosmic Casks #6 - Isle of Mull

Cosmic Casks #6 “Ring of Embers” Ignites with Isle of Mull Peallach

Tastillery 10 Years Old Cosmic Casks #6 Ring Of Embers introduces the sixth edition in Tastillery’s Cosmic Casks series: a 10-year-old single malt from the Isle of Mull, named “Ring of Embers.” This bottling stands out with its full maturation in a first-fill Ex-Rioja wine cask and a robust 54.2% ABV, capturing the fiery character of both the spirit and its unique cask environment. Limited to just 398 hand-numbered bottles, it offers collectors a compelling glimpse into smoky complexity meshed with Spanish wine influences.

Maturation & Flavor Profile

This Peallach matured exclusively in a 1st Fill Ex-Rioja wine cask, lending a distinctively rich and sweet Spanish temperament to the whisky’s entrenched smokiness. The cask’s robust Rioja legacy interweaves with the island’s iodine-tinged peat smoke—rare for this kind of single malt—bringing a fusion of campfire aromas, dry red wine notes, and forest floor nuances. The marriage of smoky intensity and fruity sweetness reveals a nuanced profile marked by sea mineral density and a gradual unfolding of flavors.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Iodine, peat bonfire smoke, dry red wine, steaming forest floor
• Palate: Sweet smoke, strawberry jelly, marinated raisins, honey-roasted bacon, salted lemon, iodine-soaked bandages, white pepper, sea pebbles
• Finish: Long, with glowing ash, wild honey, smoky barbecue sauce, dark balsamic sweetness, and smoldering charcoal
