Deanston 18 Year Whisky
Description
The Deanston 18 Year Whisky is a prestigious award-winning spirit, matured for a full 18 years in American white oak ex-Bourbon barrels. This maturation process takes place within the vaulted ceiling warehouse at the renowned Deanston Distillery.
This whisky is a classic representation of Deanston, featuring notes of sweet barley sugar, vanilla, and crisp apple. The use of bourbon casks enhances the waxy character of the single malt, resulting in the phenomenal mouthfeel that Deanston whiskies are celebrated for. The whisky is quite aromatic, striking a balance with American oak notes that are both floral and malty, with hints of grass, vanilla, honey, tobacco, and nutmeg.
The flavour profile of this whisky is both sweet and spicy, with notes of citrus, barley sugar, gingerbread, Manuka honey, and white pepper. The finish is dry and spicy, leaving a warming gingery honeyed tail which makes each sip an experience to remember.
