Deanston Kentucky Cask Matured Single Malt: Light, Crisp, and Bourbon‑Influenced

Deanston Kentucky Cask Matured is a Highland single malt from Scotland, finished in first‑ and second‑fill ex‑bourbon barrels sourced from Kentucky. Soft‑filtered and bottled at 40% ABV, this expression presents a lighter, more approachable character that showcases both Deanston’s malt-forward tradition and gentle American oak influence.

On the nose, it opens with fresh orchard fruit notes such as green apple and pear, softened by honey, creamy barley, vanilla pod, and bright bourbon oak. The palate is clean and crisp, offering flavors of toffee, buttered toast, peppery spice, cinnamon warmth, light pineapple, and subtle oak sweetness. The finish is pleasantly nutty and slightly astringent, with lingering honeyed barley and delicate oak tones.

This whisky is best enjoyed neat or over a large ice cube to appreciate its fresh malt profile and mild spice. Its soft, buttery texture also makes it a versatile cocktail base—try it in a lightly spiced Old Fashioned or bourbon-style highball.

Whether you're relaxing on a balcony in Al Barsha, Dubai or unwinding at a laid‑back gathering in Al Muneera, Abu Dhabi, Deanston Kentucky Cask Matured offers a fresh, easygoing whisky experience with subtle bourbon character.
