Aged in heavily charred ex-bourbon barrels made from American white oak, this gives the whisky a special depth and complexity. It was bottled in April 2025 with an alcohol content of 49% vol.
Tasting Notes:
Nose: Intense caramel notes, vanilla, burnt sugar, roasted nuts, and fine maltiness, accompanied by a hint of fruity dried aromas.
Palate: Soft, round, and complex, with flavors of toffee, honey, candied fruits, and delicate spice that flow elegantly together. Crème brûlée and melted sugar transition into gently spicy facets of oak with citrus.
Finish: Long, smooth, and harmonious, carried by the balanced combination of sweetness, malt, and light oak.
