Bottled at 44% ABV in a 70cl format, it is generous enough to share while still offering the sense of rarity and craftsmanship expected from a single-cask release.

• Elegant Speyside style: Enjoy a gentle, approachable malt with fruit, sweetness and a touch of smoke.

A Rich and Rewarding Tasting Experience

The first impression is inviting and softly sweet, with honeyed notes leading the way. As the whisky opens in the glass, stewed fruit brings a deeper, warmer character. The ex-sherry cask adds richness without overwhelming the natural Speyside style, creating a dram that feels polished but never heavy.

Look for the gentle sparkle of candied ginger, followed by hints of smoked heather that add a subtle touch of countryside warmth. The light peat is carefully balanced, offering atmosphere rather than strong smokiness. This makes the whisky a versatile choice for both experienced enthusiasts and those who prefer a smoother, more accessible style.

On the palate, notes of buttery shortbread and sticky toffee pudding create a comforting dessert-like quality. The sweetness is rounded and satisfying, while the mature fruit and delicate smoke keep the flavour interesting from the first sip to the last. The finish is smooth, warming and lingering, encouraging another thoughtful taste.

Premium Enjoyment Without Unnecessary Fuss

Although a 30-year-old single malt is a sophisticated choice, this bottle is easy to enjoy. There is no need for complicated tasting rituals or specialist knowledge. Pour it into a whisky glass, allow it a few moments to breathe and enjoy it slowly. A small splash of water may reveal further layers, while serving it neat keeps the full character of the single cask in focus.
