Collector’s Note
The Darkness series has become well known among whisky enthusiasts for its heavy sherry influence created by finishing whisky in small octave casks. These casks provide a larger wood surface area, intensifying the maturation process.
Aultmore’s naturally clean and fruity spirit works particularly well with Oloroso sherry casks, resulting in a whisky that balances fresh fruit with rich sherry sweetness.
