- Description
- Edradour's smallest still produces spirit with distinctive character, and this 11-year-old was finished in a Chardonnay hogshead to add wine-forward complexity. Distilled in June 2000 and bottled in October 2011, it shows the Highland distillery's natural orchard fruit alongside subtle oak influence from the wine cask. The finish carries both the delicate sweetness of Chardonnay and the distillery's signature spice. A rare single-cask bottling of just 433 bottles, ideal for those curious about wine-cask experimentation in Scottish whisky.
