Braeval’s naturally elegant and floral spirit is typically associated with lighter fruit and honeyed notes, but here it has been transformed by the intense influence of Pedro Ximénez sherry. The result is a whisky that feels less like a gentle Speysider and more like a decadent dessert served at cask strength.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003ePX sherry is renowned for its deep, syrupy sweetness, produced from sun-dried grapes that concentrate flavours of raisins, figs, dates, and molasses. Over eleven years, that influence has completely enveloped the spirit, creating a whisky of remarkable colour, texture, and intensity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe nose immediately delivers dark chocolate, rum and raisin fudge, fruitcake, and butterscotch, with layer upon layer of rich sweetness emerging from the glass. The palate is every bit as indulgent, revealing high-cocoa chocolate, treacle-soaked pudding, cinnamon Danish pastry, and warming spice. Despite its formidable 61.7% ABV, the whisky remains surprisingly approachable, with the richness of the cask influence softening the alcohol and carrying the flavours effortlessly across the palate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe finish is immense, with waves of PX sweetness lingering long after the whisky itself has faded. Dark chocolate, dried fruits, molasses, and spice continue to evolve, creating a finish that feels almost endless.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eBottled at natural cask strength, with natural colour and without chill filtration, this is a whisky that fully embraces the power of PX maturation. With an outturn of just 180 bottles, it is a limited release that will appeal to lovers of richly sherried Scotch and intensely flavourful drams.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eA true sherry bomb - dark, decadent, and utterly uncompromising.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Uncharted","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57136321626487,"sku":"UCH-BAE-11-617","price":88.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0428\/1722\/4864\/files\/uncharted-whisky-hot-chocolate-braeval-11-year-old-1.jpg?v=1780229791","url":"https:\/\/topwhiskies.com\/products\/uncharted-whisky-hot-chocolate-braeval-11-year-old","provider":"TopWhiskies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
