With a first maturation in ex-bourbon, bringing creamy notes to our light and fruity spirit style, we then finish this whisky in another cask type for a second maturation. STR casks are ex-red wine casks that have been shaved, toasted and recharred, creating the perfect environment for our light and creamy whisky to draw out the delicious red fruit flavours from the wood.

Tasting Notes
Colour
A sunlit golden-amber with warm copper depth and a delicate ruby edge, hinting at red-wine influence—the center bright and honeyed, narrowing to a subtly flushed rim.
Nose
Creme-brulee vanilla and soft toffee rise on a creamy, light base, while bright red fruits—strawberry, raspberry and cherry—gleam at the core. Toasted oak and a whisper of red-wine tannin from the STR finish lend subtle cocoa notes, spice and citrus zest, yielding an inviting, wine-kissed nose.
Palate
Silky and creamy on the palate, with vanilla and crème from the ex-bourbon backbone. The STR finish adds red-fruit depth—ripe strawberry, cherry and raspberry—kissed by delicate spice and soft tannins. Light yet polished, it coats smoothly and lingers with a mouthwatering red-fruit oakiness and a whisper of cocoa.
Finish
Silky, long finish loaded with red fruit: strawberry, cherry and plum, touched by blackberry. Vanilla and toasted oak weave through wine-driven sweetness from the STR cask, leaving a gentle tannic lift. Creamy warmth lingers, slowly fading into light spice and a charred-wood echo.
