Distilled at Tullibardine in the Highlands, this is a very tasty new whisky which was finished in a 225 litre cask (thus the name) which previously held maturing Sauternes dessert wine from Chateau Suduiraut. The result is a golden-coloured single malt with a deliciously creamy, fruity flavour.
Citrus peels and allspice. Notes of creamy vanilla, golden syrup, cocoa butter and black pepper.
Spiced palate entry with notes of candied orange and Seville marmalade. A little dried pineapple and white chocolate.
Medium finish with lingering sweet spices.
Superbly fruity whisky with a lovely influence from a dessert wine cask.

Just tried this for the first time. Beautifully smooth. Lovely rich taste
Absolute winner - nice to enjoy a quality whisky that has no sherry influence. It took a few sniffs to pick the dessert wine - Beautiful sweet citrus nose - Its fruity, medium to long finish, full bodied, nice oily glass. Long into the finish I got hints of wood & grape. A definite new favourite ??
Sauternes....A bit harsh and antiseptic. Was going to buy Old Pulteney wish i had.
So smooth.
Excellent addition to any Whisky lovers cabinet ??
