How big is a sherry cask?
The classic sherry cask in whisky is the butt, about 500 litres (the old Jerez export butt of 30 arrobas), though bodega butts run about 567 to 600 litres and a half butt or sherry hogshead holds about 250 litres. Puncheons range from about 450 to 700 litres, and Scotch law caps casks at 700 litres. For comparison, a bourbon barrel is about 200 litres, a Bordeaux barrique 225 litres, a port pipe about 550 to 650 litres, a quarter cask about 125 litres and an octave about 50 litres.
What is flor?
Flor is a film of living yeast that grows on the surface of fino and manzanilla in the butt, shielding the wine from oxygen and giving it its sharp, almond-like character. It survives at about 15% alcohol and is fed by the young wine added as the solera is refreshed. Amontillado starts under flor and then loses it, and palo cortado begins like a fino before being refortified, so all four styles owe part of their character to it.
What is manzanilla, and how is it different from fino?
Manzanilla is a fino-style Sherry that must be aged entirely in bodegas in Sanlúcar de Barrameda, at the mouth of the Guadalquivir, and has its own Denomination of Origin, “Manzanilla - Sanlúcar de Barrameda”. The town’s milder, more humid sea air favours a special kind of flor, giving a lighter wine with chamomile, almond and saline notes and a slightly bitter finish.
What does a manzanilla cask do to whisky?
Whiskipedia describes manzanilla casks as very similar to fino casks, which give nutty, fresh and citrus notes, but with a salty, marine character that comes from the coastal town where manzanilla is made. Like fino, it is a much subtler seasoning than oloroso or Pedro Ximénez.
