Buds & Barrels·The Sticky LabelInchgower

Buds & Barrels Inchgower is a young single malt Scotch whisky from Speyside, bottled at a robust 59.4% ABV. Its stated Pedro Ximénez quarter cask maturation suggests a sweeter, richer style than a typical refill-matured malt, with added weight from active oak.

At 6 years old, this is likely to show a lively, youthful character alongside cask-driven sweetness and spice. For a novice drinker, expect a bold whisky that may benefit from a few drops of water to soften the alcohol and open up the richer sherried notes.
