Darkness 8 Year Old 70cl 47.8%

70cl / 47.80% - At the core of this Darkness expression is an eight-year-old Speyside 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. It's also non-chill filtered, bottled at "drinking strength", and unlike it's Limited Edition cousins, is bottled in 70cl bottles. Small casks make for a vastly increased surface area to volume ratio compared to the much larger sherry butts, leading to more cask influence and more of those intense sherried notes we've all come to know and love. 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.You can enjoy this beauty neat or in a variety of serves.
