WHISKY CHARACTERISTICS

ABOUT

Deanston's uniquely waxy, citrus character is incredibly flexible and adaptable. This distinctive characteristic makes it the perfect single malt for experimentation and maturation in different cask types, such as tequila. There are many parities between tequila and single malt scotch whisky. Both are highly protected and regulated, crafted using hands on production methods, come in an array of colours, and have 5 regions which impact flavour profile.

CASK INFORMATION

Deanston single malt, from the Scottish Highlands, matured in traditional Oak hogsheads for 13 years and finished in hand selected casks that once held Agave Tequila from the Jaliscan Highlands, Mexico, for a further 2 years.
