The One Orange Wine Cask Finished

Rather than opting for traditional orange drinking wine casks, where white wine grapes are fermented in contact with their skin and seeds, this release of The One was finished in exceptionally rare ‘Vino de Naranja’ seasoned casks, made only in Huelva, Andalucía. The casks create a distinctive buttery and creamy texture, as the oak allows occasional spicy notes to peek through a nose of tropical fruits, country marmalade and hints of tobacco. With flavours of gentle peat, butterscotch and candied oranges, this now sold out expression offers a clean and smooth whisky with delicate nuances that allow you to enjoy it neat, with soda water and a twist of orange, or as you please.
