Deanston Virgin Oak Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky - 70cl
Deanston Virgin Oak is a no-age-statement Highland single malt initially matured in American ex-bourbon casks, then finished in fresh, never-before-used virgin American oak casks at the Deanston distillery in Doune. Bottled at 46.3% ABV, non-chill-filtered.
The virgin oak finish lends rich vanilla, coconut, and aromatic spice to the spirit — characteristics typically associated with new charred oak in bourbon production.
An accessible, vanilla-forward Highland malt — neat or with a drop of water.
TASTING NOTES
NOSE
Bright and aromatic — vanilla, ripe orchard fruit, soft coconut, honey, gentle baking spice, and warm toasted oak — clean and beautifully composed.
PALATE
Smooth and rounded — vanilla cream, honeyed orchard fruit, soft caramel, sweet coconut, gentle nutmeg, and integrated virgin oak — silky and harmoniously balanced.
FINISH
Medium-long and warmly oaked — lingering vanilla, coconut, soft caramel, and a gentle oak warmth fading evenly — refined and elegantly composed.
