Distilled at Tullibardine in the Highlands, this is a very tasty new whisky that was finished in a 225-litre cask (hence the name) that had previously been used to age the Sauternes dessert wine from Chateau Suduiraut. The result is a golden single malt whisky with a delicious creamy fruity flavour.
Nose: citrus peel and spices. Notes of creamy vanilla, golden syrup, cocoa butter and black pepper.
Taste: spicy entry with notes of candied orange and Seville marmalade. A little dried pineapple and white chocolate.
Finish: medium-long finish with lingering sweet spices.
