Deanston Virgin Oak Cask Strength (2023 Release)
This cask strength release truly embodies Deanston’s distinctive personality and house style. It boasts robust and rich flavors, including toasty spice, candied fruit, crisp green apple, and a subtle citrus note. At Deanston, they embrace change, always striving to improve and refusing to settle for the status quo. Just like their founder, Brodie Hepburn, who initiated this endeavor with courage and audacity, this special-edition dram is bold and unapologetic. It starts its journey in barrels previously used for aging some of the finest American bourbon, infusing it with a waxy, citrusy character, and then matures in virgin American oak barrels to create a truly unique and powerful whisky.
Tasting Note by Deanston:
Nose: Intense robust flavours of wood spice, creamy custard and candied fruit.
Palate: Butterscotch, heather honey, crisp green apple and Deanston’s signature waxy character.
