Region: Highlands
Type: Single Malt
Bottler: Distiller
ABV: 56.6%

This single cask was bottled by the distillery for The Whisky Exchange from a Pedro Ximenez Sherry puncheon, and the nose is fruity and intense with blood orange peel, mild cinnamon, baked apples, and a touch of nutmeg – very aromatic. The taste is spicy and fruity – Christmas cake on steroids – with cinnamon that fades to a good balance of dried fruits, ginger, and nutmeg. The finish is lingering with mild cinnamon, baked apples, and Christmas cake sweetness. (March, 2013)
