Milk & Honey Red Wine Cask is an Israeli Single Malt, produced in Tel Aviv, from malted barley and distilled in traditional copper pot stills .
This expression belongs to the Elements range , a collection conceived around the influence of different types of casks on whisky. For the Red Wine Cask, the distillery selected casks that had previously held red wines from Israeli estates , thus celebrating local wine production, in combination with ex-Bourbon casks .
Tel Aviv's Mediterranean climate, characterized by high temperatures and abundant sunshine, also contributes to the unique maturation process of M&H whiskies. The distillery relies in particular on the STR (Shave, Toast, Re-char) method, developed by hot-climate maturation specialist Dr. Jim Swan, who supported M&H in its early years.
