Details
A limited edition release of 1576 bottles at 52% ABV. A marriage of three casks 18/965 - 18/967, their delicate and floral Triple Distilled spirit filled on the 3rd of February 2018 into first fill ex-bourbon casks and laid to rest for two years and ten months before moving in to French Cognac puncheon casks on the 17th of December 2020 for two years and six months.
Bottled on the 12th of July 2023, this is a delicate and smooth single malt packed with notes of orchard fruits, rich vanilla and citrus.
This is their first release of a Triple Distilled cognac cask finished single malt. The apple and pear notes that are commonly found in their Signature Range Triple Distilled single malt are accentuated and highlighted with the benefit of the Cognac Cask finish which adds increasing layers of fresh green apples, poached pears and a rich vanilla undertone.
