Tasting Notes
Colour
Warm amber with honey-gold sheen and a coppery glow.
Nose
Sweet honey, creamy butterscotch and barley sugar dominate the nose, with a subtle spice and oak weaving through; the Madeira-cask finish adds a warm, inviting depth.
Palate
Opulent and creamy, this Deanston delivers honeyed sweetness and butterscotch, edged with barley sugar. A velvety mouthfeel coats the palate as subtle spice—cinnamon and clove—dances with toasted oak, plus a hint of dried fruit. Madeira’s influence lends warmth and dessert-like depth, finishing with lingering spice and refined sweetness.
Finish
Long, honeyed and luxuriously smooth, this finish lingers with butterscotch and barley sugar clinging to the palate, entwined with subtle spice and toasted oak. Madeira’s influence brings a warm raisiny sweetness and dried fruit depth, fading slowly into a gentle, velvety warmth and a final whisper of vanilla.
