Speyburn Arranta Casks Review
This is a bold, limited-edition release from Speyburn that ages exclusively in first-fill ex-bourbon casks. It results in a Scotch with hints of American whiskey that is, appropriately, only available in the states. The nose is led by charred wood, butterscotch, and caramel, while the palate is rich with a great concentration of flavor. This is a great bottle for bourbon drinkers seeking inspiration from across the pond.
