Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Distillery Bottling 70cl / 52.5%

Deanston 15-year-old Tequila Cask Finish was launched in spring 2023 and marks the first of a proposed series of experimental whiskies from this oft-overlooked Highland distillery.

As the name suggests, this 15-year-old Deanston started life in American oak casks before a finishing period in tequila casks from a top producer in Jalisco in the Mexican highlands. Tequila finishes have recently been given the seal of approval from the SWA, and Deanston's dry, robust, malty character seems like a good fit to complement tequila's spicy, fruity style.
