- Description
- Scallywag's 2024 Chocolate Edition is a blended malt of Speyside whiskies finished predominantly in Port casks, elevating the Speyside profile toward rich, dark chocolate and red fruit complexity. The Port wood influence adds layers of plum, raisin, and cocoa alongside the underlying Speyside elegance, while the 48% ABV delivers depth without alcohol burn. Bottled without colouring or chill-filtration, the texture is full and weighty, with a long, sweet finish balanced by wine-influenced tannins. A playful yet serious whisky for those who appreciate how strategic cask finishing can transform a familiar regional style into something distinctly memorable.
