Description
This 10 year old single malt is a remarkable creation from Brian Nation, the legendary master distiller behind icons like Jameson and Redbreast. After spending a full decade maturing in bourbon barrels, the whiskey undergoes a unique finishing process in Spanish Malaga wine casks. This final rest imparts a sophisticated layer of marzipan and ripe stone fruit that elevates the traditional biscuit like sweetness of the malted barley. It is a silky and approachable spirit that has quickly become one of the most decorated whiskeys in the world, earning a perfect score for its exceptional balance and depth.
