Helden African Bonfire Whiskey
This is the inaugural release of The African Bonfire Whisky, the world's first African Style Whiskey ever. Crafted with the essence of the African continent, this premium whisky offers a unique and refined taste that will transport you to the heart of Southern Africa. Perfect for those seeking a sophisticated and exclusive experience.
Made from indigenous malted red sorghum and malted South African barley, this whisky is distilled to an ultra-smooth and silky spirit, which is cask matured using a combination of French oak and African indigenous Camel Thorn wood. This dark and complex whisky has a deep red colour and a touch of sweetness on the palate, ending in a spicy and complex aftertaste. It has been described as a Bushveld fireside braai experience in a bottle.
Appearance: Dark red mahogany.
Nose: Soft and deep smoke-touched wood and spice with the novel and one-of-a-kind camel thorn aromatic complexity, reminiscent of an African bushveld evening.
Palate: A silky and full-bodied expression featuring a touch of initial creamy sweetness, with a spicy touch at the end.
Finish: A deep finish that slowly evolves into a complex combination of thorn tree herbal spice, evoking the sweet, complex aromas of the African bushveld.
