Edradour 9 Year First Fill Sherry Butt Single Malt 750ml

The Edradour 9 Year First Fill Sherry Butt Single Malt is a famously rich and intense Highland whisky. This 750ml bottle comes from one of Scotland’s smallest, most traditional distilleries. It is often bottled by independent companies like Signatory Vintage or The Ultimate. These releases are typically single cask bottlings.

The whisky is matured entirely in a First Fill Sherry Butt. This cask type imparts a massive amount of colour and flavour over nine years. It is bottled without chill-filtration or added colour. The bottling strength is usually high, sometimes reaching Cask Strength. Aromas are dominated by rich sherry, dark fruit, chocolate, and blood orange. The palate is thick, syrupy, and powerful. It offers flavours of black fruit, candied citrus, toffee, and baking spice. The finish is long and satisfyingly tannic.

The spirit’s robust character stands up perfectly to the aggressive sherry influence. This results in a whisky that is both youthful and deep with flavour. The sheer intensity and dark colour make the Edradour 9 Year First Fill Sherry Butt Single Malt a prized collector’s item. This is a decadent “sherry bomb” for the devoted enthusiast.
