Deanston 2002 17 Year Old, Organic PX Cask 49.3%
This single malt represents 17 years well spent. Made with organically sourced barley, the first fourteen of those were spent in whisky refill casks under their careful gaze inside a former weaving shed (Did you know their distillery used to be a mill?).
During the finishing, it developed a delicious sweetness, as we all would, if we'd spent years in sherry wood. Notes of caramel, maple syrup, candied peel and sherry-soaked raisins are the product of their 100% natural process.
Tasting notes:
Colour: Burnished copper
Nose: Very dry and slightly sulphurous, with a whole basket of dried fruits, raisins and dates
Palate: Sweet caramel, mouth-coating maple syrup, mixed candied peel and sherry soaked raisins.
Finish: Long and sweet; fading to honeyed cashews
