Deanston Secret Spirits - Single Cask #900038 Whisky Miniature 10 Year Old · 2009 Vintage

Colour

Rich, deep amber with copper-gold highlights and a warm, honeyed glow.

Nose

Opulent, sherried bouquet: dark fig and raisin, orange zest and candied peel folded into honeyed malt, vanilla and toasted oak. Cinnamon and clove linger, with a hint of almond brittle. At 65% ABV, a warming, resinous glow hints at a deep, syrupy sweetness beneath.

Palate

Bold and richly sherried on the palate, this 10-year-old unfurls dark fig and raisin fruit with burnt caramel, toasted almond and baking spice. Full-bodied and warming, syrupy sweetness coats the tongue as orange zest and cocoa mingle with robust oak, delivering a long, lingering finish with a peppery, spicy kick.

Finish

Long, luxurious finish with a warming cascade of spice and oak. Dried fruit and fig mingle with cocoa and soft vanilla, echoing hints of sherry sweetness that linger warmly on the palate, leaving a velvety, resinous warmth.
