Call it, if you like, the Genie in the bottle. We are now very familiar with the spasmodic attention of the guys at Copperworks for barley, which is why we selected another of their single barrels: a single malt obtained from a variety of spring-sown barley, the Genie. Barrel 443, in virgin oak charred at level 2, bewitched us and Cristian Camnasio, soul of the “Daiquiri cocktail bar” in Cormano with whom we shared the selection and bottling. The surprising balsamic character, with aromatic herbs and eucalyptus, hit us like a gust of wind from the forests of the West Coast. The uncompromising power, combined with a lively palate and the usual epic tropical fruit of Copperworks, did the rest. Born to be wild.
