 This malt whisky surprises with an elegance and complexity far surpassing its age. The whisky shines with its fresh and fruity character and delicate smokiness. The unique qualities of this whisky come from the use of a crystal clear wort that is slowly fermented for 7 days and the slow distillation method with the relatively early cut point. After distillation the whisky had a full maturation in Amarone wine casks that give the whisky its beautiful color and adds to the elegant fruity notes that work so well with the delicate peaty notes.

Tasting notes:

Color: Dark Gold

Taste: Elegant, wonderfully balanced. Obvious peated aroma’s combined with Seville oranges and a trademark spiciness

 Finish: Long and luscious with an elegant and pleasant smokiness
