Flavor Profile
Deep, Rich & Dried Fruits
The whisky presents prominent notes of apple and treacle with rich sherry influences. The aromatic profile is inviting and complex, drawing repeated nosing.
This cask-aged expression delivers a muscular, full-bodied character with layered flavors of orchard fruit and dark sweetness. The first-fill Spanish oak Oloroso treatment contributes substantial depth and richness to the spirit.
The finish is warming and substantial, with lingering notes of sherry and autumnal spice that provide a comforting conclusion. This dram offers the robust character suited to cooler seasons.
Apples and sherry and treacle, oh my! Our US Exclusive Fall 2025 Seasonal Selection screams, “Autumn!” in the most delightful ways. Starting with a muscular spirit from the member-favorite distillery in Fort William, Euan decided to transfer this Bunyanesque baller of a dram to a 1st fill Spanish oak Oloroso sherry cask at 5 years old. That’s half it’s life! And the results will have your nose bobbing into the glass for another nose. This is a big bear hug of a malt to fortify you as the cooler air approaches.
