Deanston x Dragon's Milk - Stout Cask Finish | 700ML

A fab collab here between the Deanston distillery and Dragon's Milk, a bourbon barrel-aged stout. Distilled in 2012, the single malt was initially matured in re-charred whisky casks before finishing in casks that previously held Dragon's Milk stout, imparting decadent and complex layers of floral malt and sweet spice. An intriguing sipper for fans of experimental cask finishes, and a fab choice to enjoy as a follow-up to a quality craft beer.

Deanston x Dragon's Milk - Stout Cask Finish | 700ML Tasting Notes

Nose: Fresh apples, a whisper of cherry blossom, and gently herbaceous malt.

Palate: Biscuity, with sweet cakey spice countering warmer layers of peppery heat. Candied orange creeps, with just a touch of bitter cacao.

Finish: Burnt sugar, more prickles of spice, lemon drops, and drying, nutty oak.

Distillery Information

Deanston distillery is a Single Malt Scotch whisky distillery located on the banks of the River Teith,[2] eight miles from the historic town of Stirling, at the gateway to the dramatic Loch Lomond & Trossachs National Park. It is the largest distillery owned by Scotch whisky producer Distell Group Limited, who also own Bunnahabhain Distillery on the Isle of Islay and Tobermory distillery on the Isle of Mull.Deanston Distillery started life in 1785 as a cotton mill designed by Sir Richard Arkwright, and remained as such for 180 years until it was transformed into a distillery in 1966. The constant supply of pure water from the River Teith contributed to the decision to turn the mill into a distillery and Deanston is now the only distillery in Scotland to be self-sufficient in electricity, with power generated by an on-site hydro-energy facility. Deanston sits in the Highland single malt region of Scotland and produces whisky which is handmade by ten local craftsmen, un-chill filtered, natural colour and bottled at a strength of 46.3% ABV.
