Launched in 2024, the Fusion Cask series aims to showcase flavour experimentation by partially maturing the Speyside distillery's single malt in bespoke casks. For this inaugural release, the whisky was finished in recoopered casks crafted from first-fill rum and first-fill bourbon. The selected casks were dismantled and reconstructed, pairing the heads of one cask type with the staves of the other. Bottled at 43%.
Nose: Orange, vanilla custard, caramel, coconut and zest of lemon.
Palate: Notes of juicy apricot and peach, fresh apples, toffee-covered bananas and subtle cinnamon spice.
Finish: Sweet and smooth finish with enduring notes of orange.
Overall rating: 5.0 / 5 from 1 reviews.

"I am really impressed with the depth of flavour on this whisky. Lovely fresh fruit up front with a long, sweeter finish due to the casks used. Bang for your buck!"
