The Spey Cascade single malt Scotch whisky from the Singleton of Dufftown is made with a balanced mix of whiskies aged in both bourbon and Sherry casks. The result is warming with baked orchard fruits, demerara sugar and golden barley. Great for early evening dramming, this one - laid back with good flavour behind it. The folks at the Singleton of Dufftown also say Spey Cascade pairs well with chocolate truffles, too. If you're feeling decadent, go for it.

Baked apple is very dominant on the nose, with a touch of oak and corn. On the palate, again fruity, with marmalade, a tiny bit of aniseed. Fresh oak is also present, accounting for a spicy delivery. Alas, the fun is short: Drops dead very quickly once the dominant flavors disappear. May be good as a pre-dinner dram.
