A significant milestone for the Wolfburn distillery – this 10-year-old single malt is its first permanent age statement release. The whisky spent its full maturation in second-fill oloroso sherry casks resulting in a sumptuously sweet, fruit-laden profile, backed by dense oak and silky caramel.
Sherried fruits lead with gentle layers of dates, figs, and sultanas. Oaken vanilla and melted butter follow beneath.
Generous layers of chocolate raisins and stewed berries are followed by crème caramel, while old charred oak and a prickle of warming spice develop in the depths.
Burnt sugar, dried fruits, nutmeg, and sweetly sherried oak.
lots of sherry and vanilla in this; just a touch firey going down although not in a bad way. i popped a teaspoon of o2 into a large glass and it improved it imo.
Wonderful stuff from this up and coming brand . Continually improving . Love this Sherry fronted expression
Little too fruity for me. Verging on the too sweet but otherwise very palatable dram without being excessively complex. Slightly peppery finish.
