- Description
- Matured entirely in fresh oloroso quarter cask, this West Midlands single malt showcases deep sherry character with the distillery's fruit-forward house style—the Maris Otter and Laureate barley combined with Kveik Voss yeast creates a robust, fruity spirit. Rich and complex on the palate, with dried fruit, oak spice, and a velvety texture. The quarter cask accelerates cask influence while maintaining freshness. This is for sherry enthusiasts who want serious oak interaction without sacrifice of distillery character.
