After sampling the whisky in the ASBs at 3 years, both the flavour and colour profiles were there but we decided to finish the whisky in quarter casks in order to further elevate both the colour, the flavour and accelerate the maturation. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.3); -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0px 0px 1em; border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-size: 15px; line-height: inherit;\"\u003eThese casks were all filled in April, May and June 2020 and the grain used to make this whisky was predominantly Golden Promise with Cask 10 a combination of Laureate, Maris Otter and Golden Promise. The new make spirit was originally casked at 72% ABV. When finishing in the quarter casks we tempered the spirit down to 63.5% ABV for optimal maturation in the cask. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.3); -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0px 0px 1em; border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-size: 15px; line-height: inherit;\"\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-size: inherit; line-height: inherit; font-family: inherit; font-size-adjust: inherit; font-kerning: inherit; font-variant-alternates: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-position: inherit; font-feature-settings: inherit; font-optical-sizing: inherit; font-variation-settings: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\"\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.3); -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-size: 15px; line-height: inherit;\"\u003eNose : Cereal, heather, truffle, floral.
