This premium whisky, launched in 2009, w<strong>as</strong> also recently added to<br />

Ian Buxton’s 101 World Whiskies To Try Before You Die, a UK <strong>be</strong>stseller<br />

offering a defin<strong>it</strong>ive guide to whiskies that every enthusi<strong>as</strong>t<br />

<strong>should</strong> t<strong>as</strong>te to extend their whisky education. Considering there<br />

are more than 5,000 whisky la<strong>be</strong>ls in the world, <strong>be</strong>ing selected is no<br />

Bain’s Cape Mountain Whisky is crafted by the dynamic duo, m<strong>as</strong>ter<br />

distiller Andy Watts and distiller Jeff Green, at The James Sedgwick<br />

Distillery in Wellington.. W<strong>it</strong>h a distinctive South African t<strong>as</strong>te profile<br />

the whisky is created from the finest local grain. It is made in a style<br />

that allows the maximum interaction <strong>be</strong>twen c<strong>as</strong>k and whisky by<br />

<strong>be</strong>ing double-matured - first for three years in specially selected<br />

oak c<strong>as</strong>ks previously used for bourbon, and then re-vatted for a<br />

further two years, also in ex-bourbon c<strong>as</strong>ks.<br />

The result is an exceptional whisky offering toffee, floral<br />

and vanilla arom<strong>as</strong> softened by sweet, spicy undertones<br />

that produce a warm mouth-feel and a smooth finish.<br />

The James Sedgwick Distillery, which dates back to<br />

1886, is s<strong>it</strong>uated near the foothills of the Bain’s Kloof P<strong>as</strong>s<br />

outside Wellington, in the heart of the Boland. The whisky<br />

pays tribute to Andrew Geddes Bain, the pioneering p<strong>as</strong>s<br />

builder who planned and built the p<strong>as</strong>s which since 1853<br />

connects Wellington to the interior.<br />

Bain’s Cape Mountain Whisky is available from leading<br />

liquor outlets and retails for about R200 per 750ml bottle.<br />
