Description
Released as part of the eighth batch of UK exclusive single cask bottlings, this glorious expression has spent 14 long years maturing to perfection in a single Chinquapin virgin oak barrel. The oak is native to the Northern Ozark region of Missouri, USA. Bottled at a robust cask strength of 57.2% abv, the exceptional cask has imbued the single malt with delicate hints of cinnamon and aniseed. Free from chill filtration, and at natural colour.
On the nose, the whisky boasts notes of toasted oats, liquorice and heather honey, with hints of cardamom, black truffle and ginger. On the palate, waves of spiced heather honey flavours, alongside aniseed and strawberry jam, followed by nutty and spicy notes on the close.
