- Description
- Distilled in 2009 and bottled at 15 years old by Elixir Distillers under their Single Malts of Scotland label, this Speyside demonstrates classic sherry cask influence at cask strength (57.5% ABV). The nose reveals ripe orchard fruits and dried figs with warming baking spices, while the palate develops into full-bodied dark chocolate, roasted nuts, and tangy orange peel balanced by subtle oak tannins. This is a whisky for those who prefer rich, fruit-forward Speyside character with enough alcohol and tannin structure to reward contemplative sipping.
