About
This Deanston 1996 is an elegant Highland single malt matured in an Oloroso sherry butt and bottled by Meadowside Blending at a robust 54.3% ABV. After 24 years of maturation, this whisky has developed into a beautifully balanced expression, showcasing red fruits, berries, and prunes alongside subtle leather notes characteristic of quality Oloroso cask influence. The nose reveals a pleasant interplay of citrus freshness and creamy vanilla sweetness, while the palate immediately impresses with a peppery, buttery character. Bright lemon and sherbet notes combine with a full, creamy mouthfeel that evolves gracefully. The finish delivers excellent balance with a fresh acidity and lingering notes of red fruits and toasted barley, making this a sophisticated dram that rewards patient appreciation.
