This classic malt is first matured in traditional oak before spending time in American oak casks, which impart notes of vanilla and give the whisky its distinctive smoothness. The mineral-rich water that comes from Josie’s Well helps form the flavors during mashing and fermentation, while the specific height and width of the copper stills add a delicate yet complex character.
