Deanston 12 Year Old 2007 Calvados Cask Finish
Tremendous 12 year old single malt Scotch from Deanston, distilled in 2007 and matured for a total of 12 years. The final two years were spent resting in ex-Calvados casks, and the crisp wafts of sharp green apple certainly add a splendid twist to the honey sweetness at its core. Cracking stuff for sipping on a warm evening, though this ought to make a fab winter warmer too!
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Layers of butterscotch mingle with green apple peels, sweet oak, and rich orchard honey.
Palate
Creamy barley and sweet caramel lead to sharp apple, bringing a crisp, zesty character. Silky honeyed fruits follow alongside gentle woody spice.
Finish
Sweet citrus zest and fresh, crunchy apples tangle with lasting notes of biscuity malt and runny caramel.
