This right here is a 22 year old whisky which has been treated to a finishing period in a chestnut wood cask, bottled up as part of the Defilement range. Now, we know that’s sentence is a little low on details, but there’s a reason for that. Regulations surrounding a particularly popular style of whisky from a certain location say that it can only be matured in oak, and chestnut wood is not oak. As such, it can only be called “whisky” – but what a whisky indeed! It’s a fascinating expression, with complex woody notes juxtaposed by vibrant fruit and a good flash of spice.
