Tasting Notes

Nose

Zesty lemon, creamy vanilla fudge. Subtle mint and jasmine blossom. The bourbon cask maturation gives a clean, bright Speyside character.

Palate

Silky — barley sugar, hazelnut. Livened with cinnamon, malt biscuit and black pepper. The ten years in bourbon cask provide genuine depth. At 46%, non-chill-filtered.

Finish

Sweet, citrus fresh and silky smooth.

Cask Speyside 10 Year Old is A.D. Rattray's entry-level Speyside — an unnamed ten-year-old single malt from a Speyside distillery, matured in bourbon casks and bottled at 46% without chill filtration. It is part of the Casks of Scotland range.

The ten years of bourbon maturation give the whisky genuine depth — vanilla fudge, hazelnut, barley sugar — while the Speyside source provides clean, bright fruit and floral character. The 46% presentation gives everything room to express itself.

Cask Speyside 10 is a well-priced, well-presented Speyside single malt from Scotland's oldest independent bottler. The unnamed source adds mystery, and A.D. Rattray's cask expertise ensures quality. Good everyday Speyside at a fair price.
