SLYRS Single Malt Whisky Fifty-One 51%
DRIED PLUM, ROASTED CHESTNUT AND DARK CHOCOLATE. POWERFUL, COMPLEX AND INTENSE.
Intensity, by design.
SLYRS Fifty-One is a bold and richly layered Bavarian single malt bringing together whiskies matured for varying lengths of time in casks previously used for sherry, port and Sauternes. Each cask contributes a different dimension, creating a powerful expression of the distinctive SLYRS style.
Dried plum and roasted chestnut provide richness, complemented by dark chocolate, bitter herbs and warming clove. Earthy notes of moss and spruce add depth, while an unexpected freshness brings balance to the whisky’s concentrated flavour and formidable 51% ABV.
Complex, uncompromising and built for slow exploration, Fifty-One is SLYRS at full intensity.
The name says it all.
Tasting notes
Rich in appearance, with an intense and inviting depth of colour.
Dried plum and roasted chestnut lead the aroma, followed by earthy moss, aromatic spruce and a subtle hint of dark chocolate.
Full and characterful on the palate, combining bitter herbs, warming clove and roasted nuts with concentrated dark fruit and an unexpected freshness. The finish is long, intense and gently dry.
Producer: SLYRS
Country: Germany
Region: Bavaria
Spirit type: Single Malt Whisky
Cask influence: Sherry, port and Sauternes casks
Style: Powerful, complex, rich and intense
Alcohol: 51% ABV
Bottle size: 700ml
Perfect serve
Serve neat at room temperature in a whisky tasting glass, allowing its dried-fruit, roasted-nut and dark-chocolate aromas to develop gradually.
A few drops of still water are particularly effective with this high-strength whisky. Add the water slowly to soften the alcohol and reveal more of its fruit, herbs and underlying freshness.
Avoid excessive chilling, which may restrict its rich aroma and layered cask character.
Food pairing
The whisky’s dried fruit, roasted nuts, dark chocolate and warming spice make it an excellent partner for game, mature cheeses and deeply flavoured desserts.
Serve with:
Roast venison with a plum reduction
Duck breast with port sauce
Slow-cooked beef
Chargrilled steak
Roasted mushrooms with thyme
Mature Alpine cheese
Blue cheese with dried fruit
Roasted chestnuts
Flourless dark-chocolate cake
Plum tart with warming spices
Dried plum and the influence of port, sherry and Sauternes casks complement fruit-based sauces, game and mature cheese. Roasted chestnut, clove and bitter herbs provide depth alongside beef, mushrooms and chargrilled dishes.
Its dark-chocolate character and gently dry finish also balance rich desserts without allowing the pairing to become overly sweet.
