The elegant backbone of this whisky has been defined by its 11-year slumber in the finest American white oak cask. Only when the time was right did Master Distiller transferred into an exquisite Lepanto brandy cask. Here the whisky was gifted with notes of grapefruit, crushed almonds and caramel fudge. Six years later, the whisky got transferred into a distillery rum bourbon cask for its final refinement, completing this whisky’s wonderful flavours.

Radiating with flashing yellow light and gold.
Cinnamon spice, marzipan, nutmeg and Cuban cigars give way to peaches, apples, damsons and pears. Whispers of hazelnuts, Morello cherries, pineapple and Parma ham follow.
Brandy grapefruit, banana fritters, crushed almonds and gazpacho andaluz, with fresh layers of sultanas, caramel fudge, fig cake and mulled wine.
