Subtlety, poise and elegance have no place here. Welcome to a new level of intensity and depth. Welcome to Darkness! Every bottling in the Darkness range has been finished at least three months in specially-coopered sherry octave casks. These little rascals are much smaller than your standard butt cask, which makes for a hugely increased surface area to volume ratio, yielding maximum richness and depth.

At the core of this Darkness expression is an 8 year old single malt Scotch whisky which has been matured in ex-bourbon barrels. Following that, the whisky is moved over to custom-made Oloroso sherry octave casks for at least three months.

Darkness 8 Year Old is a continuous release from the range that was previously built around very limited edition bottlings, though the name of the game hasn’t changed – big ol’ helpings of sherried deliciousness await you!
