About this bottle

This single malt release from Highlands distillery Deanston is the first Cask Strength expression in its Virgin Oak series. The single malt is first aged in ex-bourbon barrels before finishing its maturation for 12 months in virgin American oak barrels from Kelvin Cooperage. It's bottled at 58.3% ABV without chill-filtration. It launched in the fall with the US getting its allotment in November 2023 at select retailers and online merchants. (SRP $97.99)
