Details
First-fill oloroso sherry cask maturation… what is not to love?
Distilled in July of 2012, this stunning malt has soaked in sumptuous sherry wood for all it’s life. A fantastic spirit born of the Ayrshire coast, this is often referred to in the indy whisky world as ‘Dalrymple’. This is a title given to the spirit by the distillery, taken from the distillery’s local village. This is a glass of butterscotch and sticky toffee pudding drowned in melting vanilla ice cream, served at cask strength with an awesome natural colour as dark as stewed tea.
This was a sherry butt- that is a big cask. There was a yield of 687 bottles and about half of that is staying in the UK.
