Description

Deanston started life as a cotton mill in 1785 but by the 1960s the mill closed and began producing single malt whisky in 1967. Today it is owned by South African drinks company Distell. This limited edition expression was distilled in 1997 and matured for over 18 years in ex-bourbon casks before being finished for over 2 years in Palo Cortado sherry hogsheads. It was bottled at 21 years old at a cask strength of 51.8% ABV, naturally coloured and non-chillfiltered.

Nose
Toasted teacake choc full of dried fruit, with candied orange, oak spice, vanilla fudge and gentle fruity sherry aromas. Creamy and deep, with a nuttiness and an earthiness. Sherry vinegar comes together with almond meal and some mineral dryness, with hints of yellow fruit. Honey, dried fruit, citrus, toffee and floral notes.
Palate
Mulled spices, nougat, set honey, orange marmalade and toasty oak. Thick and syrupy, with honey and a brighter fruity sweetness. Sweet green grapes, some green fruit and a bit of malt. Smooth oak and rich honey with sweet dried fruits and a touch of spice. Luxuriously smooth caramel and rich oak, blended with honey, dried apricots, prunes and figs, with a warming hint of gentle spice.
Finish
Rich red fruit and more floral honey, with earthy vanilla pod lingering. Sweet and spicy, gentle, with a lingering hint of the yellow fruit, running down into the gullet. Medium length, lingering tropical fruits, gentle spiciness nutmeg, earthy undernote. Long and lingering with sweet fruit notes. A satisfying clean and dry oaky sweetness, alive with honeyed fruits and gingerbread.
