Description

This Deanston 5 Year Old is a Highland single malt bottled by Elixir Distillers for their Single Malts of Scotland Small Batch series. Distilled in 2020 and bottled in 2025, it was matured in a combination of PX and Oloroso sherry butts at 48% ABV. This non-chill filtered and natural colour expression challenges the notion that complexity requires extensive aging, offering a captivating exploration of youthful depth from just three casks. It is noted for its ability to carry the sherry influence without tipping into sweetness overload, tasting complete rather than young.

Nose
Intense bouquet of malty sweetness, dried fruits, nuts and vanilla, with figs and toffee, balanced by the drying nuttiness of Oloroso over barley sugar.
Palate
Creamy and full-bodied with dark chocolate, ripe fruits, and spicy oak. Valencia orange juice, anise, and dry cinnamon, with soft tannins and lemon zest.
Finish
Medium-long and harmonious with dry-nutty notes, malty sweetness, and fine spice, layering cocoa into the mix.
