Details
Provenance, authenticity and quality lie at the heart of Murray McDavid's Cask Partnership Series, which showcases single malt Scotch whiskies matured in flavourful casks sourced from wine and spirit producers around the world.
Since 1729, the Ximénez-Spínola family have been crafting renowned Sherry wines in Jerez. For this cask partnership, Oloroso barriques previously used to mature fortified wine with exposure to oxygen were selected, bringing the dry, nutty character associated with this style of Sherry.
The fresh, floral spirit from Miltonduff Distillery provides the foundation for this release, which spent its final two years maturing in fresh Oloroso Sherry casks. The resulting profile features notes of walnut, succulent sultanas and warming cinnamon spice.
