Whisky Works King of Trees 10 Year Old 46.5%

A highland style blended malt with fresh and crisp apple and pears, soft wood spice and cinnamon notes. Only 2,157 bottles are made of this 10 year old blend of Highland Blended Malt Scotch Whisky. This whisky is made with a rare maturation process, using wood from two centuries old Scottish Oak trees wind-felled on a Highland estate! Scottish Oak rarely gives knot free staves which are needed for barrel making and these fallen elder trees provided suitable timber for just one single cask. Initially it is matured in first fill Bourbon barrels and refill American White Oak casks, a portion of whisky was then finished in the native Scottish Oak cask to bring out the ever prominent orchard fruit notes found through out.
