Single Malt
Scotland
1 Jan 2002
The team at Deanston (I wonder if they're called the Teamston...?) got their hands on some Pinot Noir casks and used them to mature some whisky for the first time! This expression is a 17 year old single malt, which enjoyed a finishing period in the aforementioned Pinot Noir casks. Enjoyably fruity, with lots of green apple and grape notes to enjoy.
Freshly sliced green apples, with a hint of leafy forest floor earthiness and soft vanilla.
More vanilla and apple, now with subtly sharp green grape coming though.
Milky tea, lemon and malt.
