Deanston 17 Years Old Orange Wine Cask 53.6% 6 CL Sample

53.6% 0.06 ltr

Deanston 17 Years Orange Wine Cask is a distinctive and innovative Highland single malt that perfectly demonstrates what Deanston stands for: character, craftsmanship, and experimentation. This whisky first matures for 15 years in traditional ex-bourbon casks, after which it receives a special finish of 2 years in rare Vino de Naranja casks (a Spanish wine based on orange peel).

On the nose, it opens fresh and seductive with bittersweet orange, honey, and roasted nuts, complemented by dried fruit and subtle spiciness. The taste is rich and full, with an oily texture in which notes of citrus, ripe fruit, and soft spices come together. The influence of the orange wine barrel lends a unique depth and a sunny, almost Mediterranean character.

The finish is long and lively, with persistent fruity notes and an elegant, slightly spicy finish that lingers. With its robust 53.6% alcohol and natural bottling (non-chill filtered, without colorings), this is a powerful and pure expression for the connoisseur.

Deanston 17Y Orange Wine Cask is therefore not a standard whisky, but a true discovery: a perfect combination of classic Highland style and a surprising, summery twist.
