- Description
- This Highland single malt from Single & Single's Alter Ego range combines a 2008 distillation with 14 years of ex-oloroso cask maturation, creating richness beyond its relatively modest age. At 52% ABV, the higher strength carries aromas of salted cashews, sultanas, and cherry with apparent depth and structure from the Spanish oak influence. The oloroso finish adds weight and dried fruit character to what might otherwise be a lighter spirit. This works well for those exploring how cask influence can add maturity and complexity to younger distilleries.
