The Lakes The One Sherry Cask Finish Fine Blended Whisky
Out of stock
The One Collection is a range of fine blended whiskies showcasing the role of innovative cask seasoning in flavour elevation.
With only 4,512 bottles available, and principally matured in European oak Oloroso and PX casks, this is a deep, rich and intense whisky. Where, traditionally, they use American, French, and Spanish oak to create a timeless sherry-led whisky, with The One Sherry Cask Finished, it is the characters of Spanish wood which bring a new dimension to the flavour profile.
Softer and more porous, Spanish oak encourages a higher degree of interaction between spirit and cask. The more open grain allows the whisky to travel deeper into the wood, drawing out rich and intense flavours, as well as creating a beautiful and natural colour. Heavily influenced by their dark and sweet PX sherry casks, this is a decadent whisky, perfect after dinner or to relax and unwind.
A nose of Medjool dates, sun-dried raisins, sultanas and polished wood leads to Macadamia nuts, dark chocolate and gentle smoke on the palate of with a long, warming and rich finish.
Bottled at natural colour and non-chill filtered.

Palate
Opulent and deeply rich on the palate, the sherry-led sweetness blooms with Medjool dates, sun-dried raisins and sultanas, mingling with macadamia nuts, dark chocolate and a whisper of smoke. The Spanish oak's open grain invites bold wood interaction, delivering a long, warming finish with decadent, dessert-like depth.
Finish
Long, warming and rich, with a luxurious finish that lingers. Notes of dark chocolate and macadamia extend on the palate, tempered by a subtle kiss of smoke, fading to a warm, lasting glow.
