- Description
- Speyburn's 18-year-old expression marries American bourbon and Spanish sherry cask influence to deliver dark chocolate, toffee, candied almonds, and sweet spice across a smooth, full-bodied palate. The dual cask strategy adds depth without overpowering the distillery's natural Speyside character of fruit and vanilla, while maintaining balance through a lingering finish. An approachable yet sophisticated Speyside suited to evening sipping or as an introduction to sherried single malts.
