Slyrs Raritas Diaboli, Edition 2010 / 55.9%/ 0.7l

Raritas Diaboli is a whisky that does not fit into official categories and is described by its producer, the Bavarian Slyrs Distillery, as the "Finest International Blended Whisky".

The idea of ​​the "devil's delicacy" was developed by representatives of three groups: Slyrs Distillery, Deibel Consultants and Irish Lifestyle. The barrels are selected by Jürgen Deibel (a consultant in the alcohol industry with countless whisky samples) and Hans Kemenater (Slyrs master distiller), and the blending process takes place in the Slyrs distillery. The blend formula is known only to the three creators, who have mutually agreed to keep it a secret, and the criterion for selecting the components is only their own taste preferences. The Raritas Diaboli presented here, the 2010 edition, was bottled at 55.9% abv, and the edition consisted of 1,336 bottles.
