Tasting Notes

Nose

Beeswax, quince jelly and dried apricot. Vinous grape skins, old leather and a whisper of ginger cake behind.

Palate

Rich, oily and layered. Honey-poached pear, raisin, candied orange and a gentle nutty sweetness. The Cognac finish brings grape must and faint eau-de-vie warmth without intruding on the malt.

Finish

Long, waxy and elegant. Dried fruit, polished oak and a lingering note of toasted hazelnut.

Expert Review

9/10

Eighteen years of Highland maturation followed by a Cognac cask finish — a rare and rewarding combination that plays to Deanston's waxy, honeyed strengths.
