Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky Distillery Bottling 70cl / 52.5%
Deanston 15-year-old Tequila Cask Finish was launched in spring 2023 and marks the first of a proposed series of experimental whiskies from this oft-overlooked Highland distillery.
As the name suggests, this 15-year-old Deanston started life in American oak casks before a finishing period in tequila casks from a top producer in Jalisco in the Mexican highlands. Tequila finishes have recently been given the seal of approval from the SWA, and Deanston's dry, robust, malty character seems like a good fit to complement tequila's spicy, fruity style.

Admittedly, I haven't tried every whisky in the world. I like the Laphroaig, peaty and uncompromising end of the single malt scale. This is my current favourite. A brutal and beautiful drink. Harsh and refined; sour and sweet. Dangerously tasty. A real find for me, this one.
I acquired mine after someone had poured it away, and used the empty as a candle holder. Despite imbibing this Glenrothes from a drain, it was decent. 57.1% seemed to remove any of the drain ickiness. It has also somewhat dulled the pain I'm still in from recently trapping my, ahem, in my zipper.
