STRATHAVEN BALLOON FESTIVAL RELEASE TASTING SET
Double Cask Matured Blended Malt & Speyside Single Malt
46% ABV, 10cl, Non-Chill-filtered, and Pedro Ximenez Cask Maturation
Our special and limited release honouring
the 25th Jubilee of the Strathaven Balloon Festival.
This limited-edition Tasting Set brings together our two special festival releases in a perfect gift pack. It's an ideal way to explore and compare two unique whiskies, each telling its own story.
This set includes:
The Dailuaine 12 Year Old Single Malt
A rare gem from a Speyside distillery, this single malt was matured in an ex-bourbon cask and finished in an Oloroso sherry cask. Only around 2% of Dailuaine’s production is bottled as single malt, making this a truly special expression.
Nose: Caramel, zesty grapefruit, and hints of sun-dried bananas, dates, and sweet frangipani.
Palate: Malty grain flavours, vanilla oak, citrus, spice, and notes of creamy fudge, baked apple pie, and hazelnuts.
Finish: A medium finish that leaves a pleasing, fresh citrus fruitiness.
The 14 Year Old Blended Malt
A beautiful blended malt, carefully curated to be a flavour playground. It was matured in American Oak barrels and finished for nine years in first-fill Pedro Ximénez Puncheons.
Nose: Icing sugar and Parma violet, with butterscotch, ripe banana, and dark chocolate toffees.
Palate: Manuka honey, hot baked apples, and warm oak tannins, with notes of white pepper, blackcurrants, and a hint of menthol.
Finish: An oily finish with a lingering dark chocolate, espresso, and dark fruit flavour.
