Description
Edradour 12 Year Old finished in Sauternes casks delivers unexpected complexity at cask strength (56.8%), where the wine finish adds wine-forward fruit without overwhelming sweetness. Floral and honey notes combine with the distillery's characteristic herbal and slightly spicy profile, creating tension between delicate and robust. The high ABV provides viscosity and depth, with a warming finish that extends the wine influence. Best suited to those who enjoy cask finishes that complement rather than dominate the original spirit character.
