Thoughts 💭 :  The Shoulders of Giants – Bimber: Marlene – The Actress is a tribute to the legendary German actress and singer, Marlene Dietrich, known for her glamour, elegance, and trailblazing roles in both German and Hollywood cinema. This whisky was created as part of Bimber’s exclusive Shoulders of Giants series, which honours iconic figures throughout history. Named in Dietrich’s honour, this whisky draws on her multifaceted legacy, representing sophistication, boldness, and complexity, much like the actress herself.

This particular expression was matured in a single Oloroso Sherry cask and bottled exclusively for the German market, making it a rare and coveted release. The whisky reflects the craftsmanship of Bimber, mirroring Dietrich’s refined and timeless appeal.

As an exclusive German bottling, Marlene – The Actress highlights not only Bimber’s small-batch expertise but also its ability to evoke emotion and storytelling through whisky. Like Dietrich, it is bold yet elegant, and its limited availability adds to the allure for collectors and enthusiasts alike.

Sláinte!
