- Description
- Inchdairnie's Kinglassie double matured expression uses both refill American oak and amontillado sherry casks to develop its heavily peated character over 8 years. The combination of casks creates layers—smoky peat is tempered by the subtle sweetness and nuttiness of amontillado sherry, while the refill oak allows peat notes to remain prominent. The double maturation approach adds roundness to what might otherwise be a raw, young peated malt. A well-crafted proof that peat and sherry can coexist thoughtfully.
