- Description
- Aged 16 years in a single oloroso sherry butt at cask strength, this limited bottling showcases the transformative power of premium wood on Highland spirit. Rich aromas of fruit cake, cocoa, and liquorice root on the nose give way to stewed fruit, coffee, and cinnamon on the palate, layered with warming spice. The 63.5% ABV amplifies these flavours without overwhelming delicacy. For experienced whisky drinkers who value intensity and sherry-forward character.
