Deanston 11 Year Old 2012/2024 Oloroso Sherry Cask (Claxtons) 50% 0.7l

Deanston 11 Years 2012/2024 Oloroso Sherry Cask (Claxtons)

This Deanston from the Claxtons Exploration Series combines 11 years of maturation in an Oloroso sherry cask with the unmistakable signature of this traditional Highland distillery. Distilled on February 6, 2012, and bottled on January 29, 2024, this copper-colored whisky presents itself in its natural hue, without chill filtration, and at a robust 50% ABV.

The Oloroso sherry cask imparts exceptional aromatic depth to the Deanston. Intense notes of barley syrup mingle with buttery biscuit aromas and a seductive hint of crème brûlée. On the palate, sweet vanilla and shortbread notes unfold, supported by a pronounced malty barley character. The finish impresses with a harmonious combination of oaky sweetness, vanilla, and malty nuances. This limited bottling impressively demonstrates how the fruity and spicy characteristics of the Highlands harmonize perfectly with the elegance of the Oloroso sherry cask.

The Claxtons Exploration Series represents a journey of discovery for connoisseurs, characterized by carefully selected single casks and unadulterated whisky enjoyment. This Deanston perfectly embodies the philosophy of the series: natural color, non-chill filtered, and a drinking strength that brings out the full spectrum of aromas.
