Over the years, the distillery expertly tempers this powerful spirit by aging it in rare and treasured casks. Bourbon casks contribute creaminess, sherry casks impart sweetness, and the spice of virgin charred oak adds depth. This intricate dance of flavors is further enriched by the inclusion of some of the oldest whisky in their collection.
The result is a velvety explosion of flavors, characterized by bursts of bitter mocha, sizzling spice, and enveloping waves of dark chocolate, all elegantly mellowed by the presence of smooth butterscotch.
