As part of M&H’s experimental Apex series, this small-batch whisky was aged entirely in a natural reserve abutting the Dead Sea—nearly ten times as salty as any ocean and whose shores represent the lowest land-based elevation on earth—and was subject to unusual and extreme maturation conditions and a high angel’s share, resulting in a single malt like none other.
