- Description
- Auchroisk's 11-year-old from 2008, distilled in April and matured in cask #805690 until August 2019, was bottled by The Single Cask at cask strength (56.5% ABV) in a modest outturn of 286 bottles. Speyside's characteristic orchard fruit and cereal notes develop over the decade in oak, with ex-bourbon cask maturation lending vanilla and oak spice. The elevated strength amplifies the spirit's structure without overwhelming its delicate floral backbone. Ideal for whisky enthusiasts who value single-cask authenticity and proof.
