This is a Deanston from 2008, aged nine years and matured in Bordeaux red wine casks. It is a Highland single malt, bottled at a cask strength of 58.7% in a 70cl bottle, and it is not chill-filtered.
The nose is led by sour red berries, raspberry and blackcurrant, with muscovado sugar, honey and a little spicy oak. The palate is thick, creamy and viscous, with blackcurrants, cherries and ripe red wine grapes, followed by dark chocolate, toffee and a hint of espresso. The finish runs medium to long, dry and tannic, with dried berries, ginger and nutmeg.
