Winston - Speyside Blended Malt PX Whisky Cask - 2016

This is your opportunity to buy a share in a sumptuous Pedro Ximenez Sherry Hogshead re-racked from a first fill bourbon cask distilled in heart of Speyside in 2016. Winston is one of a pair of casks we were lucky enough to get our hands on in July 2020. It does have a brother, aptly named Tam, which is to mature it’s whole ten years in bourbon barrel. Click here to have a look.

This cask coming into it’s fifth year already shows a deep sweet flavours. Maltiness is still being mellowed by the fresh wood giving great toasted oak flavours. There is a touch of spice, orangey citrus and hint of chocolate. This cask was filled with 200 litres of new make spirit in 2016 at a filling strength of 65% alcohol. This dram harks from a multi-award winning Speyside distillery famous for it’s heavily sherry cask mature malts. As Winston matures, we are expecting it to quickly match and far exceed expectations of the sumptuous richness and sweetness associated with this dram. The new sherry wood is quickly providing dark colour and chocolate, toffee, dates and all those great tastes that only first fill Pedro Ximenez sherry can bestow on a spirit. Bottling is due in Summer of 2026 at 10 years old.
