This 10-year-old Highland single malt was bottled by independent bottler South Star Spirits at 48% ABV. As a single malt from Scotland’s Highland region, it is made from malted barley at one distillery and offers a style that often balances malt character with fruit and oak.
The hogshead and first-fill cask details suggest a clear influence from the wood, which can bring added sweetness, vanilla, and oak presence alongside the distillate. For a novice drinker, expect a whisky that may show a fuller cask-led profile while still sitting in a broadly approachable Highland single malt style.
