Speyburn takes a sunny detour to southern Spain with what was released as a Travel Retail exclusive (though we managed to nab some). It's finished in a trio of sherry casks from Jerez — oloroso, manzanilla, and fino. After an initial rest in bourbon barrels, this Highland single malt picks up a gorgeously nutty richness, adding layers of fruit and spice to Speyburn’s naturally bright spirit. Nice big one-litre bottle too.
Roasted hazelnuts, raisins, and soft sweet spice.
Nutty and rounded with red fruits, vanilla cream, and gentle oak.
Long, smooth, and warming, with hazelnuts and subtle sweetness lingering to the end.
