Somewhere between an old a’bundah and Mortlach 16yr old. Doesn’t need much water for a 58.3% fantastic cask involvement, burnt hazelnuts and toffee apple on pallet. Smooth finish like an expensive cognac.

Wormtub 12 Year Old Single Cask

Wonderful, wonderful Wormtub Whisky! Worm tubs hark back to the days of old, you don't see many of them around in modern-day distilleries but thankfully a few have retained these old-school bits of condensing kit, favouring the robust, heavy whiskies that they help to produce. This is a single cask batch of Wormtub 12 Year Old, a splendid Speyside single malt that finished its maturation in a first-fill oloroso sherry hogshead and bottled at cask strength, without added colour or chill filtration.

Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

Nose

Big, bold sherry character shines, with juicy sultanas, candied orange wheels, and sweetly spiced fruit loaf.

Palate

Roasted, candied walnuts and oily malt lead to meaty notes of spiced biltong, rich oak, and sherry-soaked dried fruits.

Finish

Sherried oak lingers on alongside that meaty, juicy malt, with savoury notes of fennel and spice in tow.
