- Description
- Speyburn's 2004 distillate matured for seven years in a single sherry butt before its 2012 release in the Provenance range, proving that quality cask work can deliver remarkable complexity even in youth. The sherry influence is pronounced, building rich layers of dried fruit, spice, and subtle wood tannins across a full-bodied palate. A whisky that rewards patient sipping and demonstrates Speyside's ability to shine at cask strength.
