From the heart of Speyside in Scotland comes Saltire Rare Malt Speyside 14 Year Old Single Cask Single Malt Scotch Whisky Cask #4, a limited expression matured in a 3rd fill STR ex-sherry American oak cask. Distilled from 100% malted barley and bottled at 48% ABV, this single cask release reflects classic Speyside elegance with a layered and refined character.
The nose opens with honeyed malt, baked apple, and dried fruits, followed by soft oak, vanilla, and gentle spice from its sherry-seasoned cask. The palate is smooth yet vibrant, revealing notes of caramel, orchard fruit, toasted nuts, and a touch of warming spice. Best enjoyed neat to appreciate its depth, or with a few drops of water to open the whisky’s rich Speyside complexity.
