Question 1

What does Mentidero Single Malt Whisky taste like?

Accepted Answer

Mentidero Single Malt Whisky is characterised by Malt Extract, Toasted, New Wood, Vegetative notes. Mentidero from Destilería Urbana is a Madrid-based urban distillery's single malt crafted from Castilian malted barley and triple-distilled before aging in ex-Rioja American oak casks—a thoroughly Spanish production story from grain to finish. The triple distillation yields a refined, clean spirit upon which the ex-Rioja casks impart subtle wine tannins, dark fruit, and spice notes. The palate demonstrates good integration between the spirit's delicacy and the cask's influence, with a dry, structured finish. An ideal expression for those seeking contemporary Spanish whisky with a clear sense of place.
