M&H 2017 – APEX Cognac Cask (Batch 003)

This M&H APEX Cognac Cask is an expressive and elegant single malt from the Milk & Honey Distillery in Tel Aviv. The APEX series stands for experimental cask aging and craftsmanship, and this cognac finish is among the most refined bottlings in the range.

The whisky was first matured in ex-bourbon and STR casks , after which it was finished in cognac casks . This results in a rich, layered style that beautifully combines fruity elegance and powerful structure. Bottled at 59.4% cask strength , without chill filtration, the character remains fully intact.

On the nose, you'll discover dried fruit, grapes, floral notes, and soft woody influences . The palate is full and filling , with notes of ripe apricot, honey, spice, and a warm, vinous depth from the cognac cask. The finish is long, luxurious, and refined , with a perfect balance between power and finesse.

With a Whiskybase score of 84.84/100 and a limited edition of 1,077 bottles , this is an excellent choice for cask-driven whisky lovers and those who enjoy exploring beyond the classic whisky realms.

A characterful, elegant single malt that perfectly demonstrates how well cognac casks and modern whisky can work together.
