Product Information

Giving alcohol as a gift has long been a practice associated with the ultimate level of class and prestige. There are as many flavours and distillation processes as there are unique tastes, and we have them all here on Drink Finder. Our Whisky selection is made up of deliciously distilled bottles from Scotland, Ireland, America, Japan and even India. Whether you’re purchasing as a gift or looking to add something rare and special to your collection, Drink Finder’s esteemed range has a whisky with your name on it. Finish: The sweet fruit and honey notes refine as you swallow, providing a long, chewy vanilla/oak/raisin finish and just a faint hint of smoke. The overall mouth feel is a smooth, medium- to full-bodied whisky with both a surprising brightness and surprising sweetness. Without prejudice to the section Liability below, the Service may be temporarily unavailable during maintenance, updates, etc. We shall make reasonable efforts to inform you of any unavailability due to maintenance or updates. On the palate there is a marked crème brûlée-like creaminess with the pronounced, oily, viscous mouth weight that is typically associated with heavily sherried whiskies. An unmistakable but restrained sweetness grows stronger on the palate with pronounced golden raisin and dried stone fruit flavors accompanied by caramel notes. There are also noticeable walnut and marzipan elements.

It doesn’t end there, though; at the heart of Drink Finder is people with a passion for what we do. If you’re looking for recommendations, we’d love to share our expertise with you and help you make the right choice, so Our catalogue includes popular brands and rare varieties alike, giving us one of the largest collections of alcoholic beverages in South West England. Whiskybase B.V. (“Whiskybase”, “we” or “us”, company details below) offers a whisky enthusiasts online platform that provides its members access to the most comprehensive, transparent and trusted resource of whisky bottles and allows and stimulates its members to contribute information about whisky bottles to the platform (“Service”). Deanston is a sometimes overlooked Highlands distillery that has an excellent range of single malts, including some organic expressions and this limited release 20YO. The whisky was matured in Oloroso sherry casks for two decades, and bottled at cask strength without color added or chill-filtration. There are notes of dried fruit and vanilla on the palate, followed by a hint of baking spice and prune.Nose: The aroma is warm but not hot or in your face, emphasizing oak, malted grain, and just a hint of dried raisin and fresh bread toward the end. Here the sherry influences are subtle but inviting. In 2001, Grant’s Sherry Cask Finish was the first sherry-finished Scotch blend released by a major whisky company. The expression was based on the same whiskies used in the Grant’s Family Reserve. After blending, the whisky was placed in Oloroso sherry butts and aged for an additional four months before being released. Palate: Towards the front there is a bright spiced honey which moves into a medium weight fruit-and-nut medley with unexpected sweetness.

Not technically a Scotch whisky (since the final barrel aging and bottling takes place outside of Scotland), Nomad Outland is a blend of around 30 malt and grain whiskies from the Speyside region of Scotland (where Macallan, The Glenlivet, Aberlour and other classics are based). They age in ex-bourbon casks in northern Scotland between two and five years, then transfer to ex-Oloroso sherry casks for three more years. And then the blend travels to Jerez, Spain (sherry’s ancestral home) to rest another year in very freshly seasoned ex-Pedro Ximénez casks in the Nomad cellars of the González Byass wineries. Highly recommended. If you are a fan of Spanish brandy, like a sweeter Scotch, and appreciate the added complexity that a sherry finish provides, then you will find Nomad Outland Whisky an excellent addition to a “Scotch” whisky library even if it is not technically a Scotch. If your tastes run towards “peat monsters,” then it’s best to look elsewhere. In recent years, a number of distilleries have offered expressions that were either “double matured” or finished in a combination of Oloroso and Pedro Ximénez sherry casks: Auchentoshan Triple Wood, Glenmorangie La Santa, and GlenDronach 12YO, 21YO and Cask Strength are all examples of this style. Oloroso sherry is dry, imparting notes of nuts, spice and dried fruit to the whisky. Pedro Ximénez, on the other hand, is produced from grapes that have been partially raisinated before pressing. It is extremely sweet and syrupy, and can impart distinctive sweet, raisiny and cooked fruit notes to Scotch.Nothing in the Terms shall exclude or limit our liability for fraudulent misrepresentation or for death or personal injury resulting from gross negligence or willful misconduct by us.

The use of previously filled sherry butts in the aging of Scotch whisky has long been a ubiquitous feature of the Scotch industry. Historically, the practice was largely reserved for single malts. Macallan, GlenDronach and Balvenie were among the better-known distilleries that offered expressions that had been exclusively matured in one or more combinations of 500-liter sherry butts. Other distilleries offered expressions that had been “finished” from two months to two years in such sherry butts. The Famous Grouse, Scotland’s bestselling blended Scotch, has always had a portion of sherry butt-aged whisky in its blend. Not a big surprise, when you consider that its parent company, Edrington Group, also owns The Macallan single malt.
