This Epicurean Malt was first matured in premium American Oak wood barrels before being re-racked into hand-selected Rivesaltes Single Casks for a second maturation period of more than twelve months. The result is a full-bodied Malt with layers of complexity and character.

The Rivesaltes Wine casks hail from the town Rivesaltes in the south-west corner of the Languedoc-Roussillon wine region of France.

Tasting notes by Douglas Laing:

Colour: Golden

Nose: The nose is sweetly honeyed and gristy, showing sugared cereal and pear drops

Palate: The nutty palate warms to milk chocolate, hazelnuts and citrus fruits

Finish: Running to a finsh that bursts with crystallised fruits, prunes, cocoa, orange peel and almond
