| Deanston VIRGIN OAK HIGHLAND SINGLE MALT SCOTCH Highland Single Malt, Unchill Filtered |
| Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
Burn Stewart Distillers |
| Medium yellow colour. Intense, somewhat smoky, vibrant, honeyed caramel nose. Slightly spicy, well-structured, ripe, plummy-orange-citrus-caramel flavours with a lingering, bright, gently smoky, baked Alaska finish. Unchill filtered and made with local barley and yeast plus water from the River Teith which runs alongside the distillery. Delicious value here! |

A Best Buy |
| Deanston Virgin Oak, a new addition to the portfolio, has been finished in virgin oak casks sourced from a family-owned cooperage in Bardstown, Kentucky. Unlike most, these casks have not been used for any other alcohol so the Deanston malt picks up more of the oak flavour in maturation. Everything else about the process is kept close to home, with only local barley and yeast used with water from the River Teith which runs alongside the distillery. (burnstewarddistillers.com) |
