Bain's Cape Mountain Whisky is crafted at the James Sedgwick Distillery located in Wellington, South Africa. It derives its flavors from local grain and water flowing over 850 million year old sandstone. The whisky is uniquely double matured, spending an initial three years in oak casks followed by two more years in a second set of casks, which gives it a smoother taste with sweet vanilla notes. It has warm golden color with a nose of vanilla, flowers and toffee aromas and a long, smooth finish.

2. Our Master Distiller skillfully crafts this elegant single grain whisky at the James Sedgwick Distillery, which dates back to 1886, situated at the foothills
of the Bain’s Kloof Pass on the banks of the Berg River in Wellington. Bain’s takes its name from one of the most picturesque and magnificent passes
in South Africa and also honours Andrew Geddes Bain, the creative mind behind the construction.
Bain’s Cape Mountain Whisky owes its delicate aroma and distinctive flavours to the finest
quality South Africa grain and pure Cape Mountain waters which flow over 850 million year
old sandstone and indigenous fynbos.
Quite uniquely, the whisky is double matured in specially selected oak casks. After the initial
three years maturation period, it is released from the wood and then once again re-vatted
into oak casks for a further 2 years maturation. This double maturation gives it a smoother
mouthfeel and sweet vanilla undertones on the aroma profile. Very few whiskies have the
benefit of double maturation.
Taste Profile:
Bain’s Cape Mountain Whisky shows an exceptional interaction between spirit and wood
to produce a mix of toffee, floral and vanilla aromas and flavours with a hint of spice
softened by sweet oak undertones.
