Description
Deanston 18 Year Old 70cl, 46.3% is a mature Highland single malt Scotch whisky from Deanston Distillery, bottled as part of the distillery’s core range. It is fully matured in American white oak ex-Bourbon barrels for 18 years, giving the whisky a rich but clean profile built around honey, vanilla, sweet barley, orchard fruit and warming spice.
This expression shows Deanston’s classic natural style: waxy, aromatic, unpeated and full of Highland character. Bottled at 46.3%, non-chill filtered and with no added colour, it keeps a fuller texture and a more natural cask-driven appearance.
Expect sweet barley sugar, crisp apple, vanilla, honey, citrus, gingerbread, nutmeg, white pepper and soft oak. It is a refined and very enjoyable 18 year old whisky, offering more depth than the 12 Year Old while keeping Deanston’s smooth, approachable and lightly waxy house style.
