Distilled in 2010 and matured in a bourbon cask, this expression highlights the fresh, fruity and honeyed character that can emerge from Speyside single malt when complemented by bourbon-cask maturation. The cask contributes notes of vanilla, sweet oak and gentle spice while allowing the whisky's natural orchard-fruit and malt character to remain prominent.

The whisky offers a balanced combination of ripe fruit, floral sweetness, creamy vanilla and soft spice. Bottled at 46.0% ABV, it maintains good flavour concentration while remaining smooth and approachable.

With its identifiable Cask #586 provenance and SG60 release designation, this expression is particularly suited to Samaroli collectors and enthusiasts interested in distinctive single-cask-style Scotch bottlings.
