Deanston 2008 Oloroso Cask Matured LImited Edition
Description
The Deanston 2008 Oloroso Cask Matured Limited Edition is a special whisky that has been fully matured in Oloroso sherry casks for a period of 12 years. This maturation process infuses the whisky with an array of sweet notes, resulting in a balanced and flavorful spirit.
This whisky features a delightful balance of chocolate and fruit, complemented by a touch of pine and warming Christmas spice. The palate is greeted by flavours reminiscent of a black forest gateau, featuring cherries and chocolate, followed by sweet spice, nutmeg, and sultanas.
The tasting experience continues with notes of treacle toffee, dark fruits, festive spice, hints of mocha, and a touch of pine. The finish is long and warming, leaving behind notes of gingerbread and nutmeg. This combination of flavours makes for a truly unique and memorable whisky.
