Bain’s Cape Mountain Whisky Single Grain (6 x 750ml)
R1769,00A UNIQUE FLAVOUR PROFILE
Adding to the exceptional flavour profile and leading the innovation of whisky-making around the globe, Bain’s is distilled in column stills and uniquely double matured.
The whisky is matured in first-fill American Oak casks previously used for the maturation of bourbon, first for three years before being revatted into a fresh set of casks for a further 18 to 30 months.
A UNIQUE INGREDIENT FROM A UNIQUE PLACE
South Africa’s sun-kissed grain is world-renowned in the distilling industry for its superior quality. It makes sense then that Bain’s is so flavourful, even though its only ingredients are water, yeast and grain.
The warm South African climate also accelerates maturation and the rate of flavour extraction from the oak, resulting in a smoothness normally only associated with much older whiskies.

Bain’s Cape Mountain Whisky 10yo Shiraz Cask Finish
The Bain’s Cape Mountains Whisky 10-Year-Old Shiraz cask finish is an aromatic, full-bodied expression released at cask strength to demonstrate the creatively that our Founder Distiller has brought to the world of whisky.
After Bain’s Cape Mountain Whisky initial double maturation, Andy finished the whisky for a further five years in ex-shiraz American Oak casks.
Un-chillfiltered and natural in colour the whisky is presented in its purest form.
Shiraz Casks are rarely selected as a whisky finish, yet the complexity of the seasoned Shiraz casks selected enrich Bains’s Cape Mountain Whisky with layers of earthy red fruit and pepper, enlivening the whisky’s signature aromas of vanilla, toffee and spice.
