This Lowlands Single Malt draws its unique complexity from a maturation in three types of casks: American Bourbon barrels, Oloroso Sherry casks and Spanish Pedro Ximénez wine casks.
Tasting Notes:
Appearance: amber.
Nose: rich and spicy, the initial nose is a full expression of the sherry and tobacco with a light smoky touch. It then becomes more fruity and patisserie-like with notes of orange cake, apricot, date and almonds, on a background of chocolate.
Palate: soft and oily. Characterised by wax and precious wood. Both delicate and syrupy, it evolves with toffee and caramel, orangette and candied fruit.
Finish: very long and lightly tannic, with lemongrass and spice.
Land: Scotland
Distillery: Auchentoshan
Alcohol by volume: 43%
