This single-cask bottling of a Deanston single malt was produced by the independent bottler The Caskhound (Tilo Schnabel) as a cask-strength release. The whisky was distilled in 2019, matured in a refill ex-bourbon cask, finished for 1,111 days in a second-fill ex-Pedro Ximénez sherry quarter cask, and was bottled at cask strength in 2026 in a run of 130 bottles.
Deanston is a distillery in Deanston, Stirling, Scotland, which was founded in 1965 by Deanston Distillery Co Ltd. A cotton mill built in 1785 was converted into the distillery. In 1971, the first single malt was launched under the name Old Bannockburn. The distillery was taken over by Invergordon Distillers in 1972 and since 1974 there have been bottlings under the name Deanston. Since 1990, the distillery has belonged to Burn Stewart Distillers from Glasgow.
Scotland and Scotch whisky is a global trend, a development that has led to a flourishing whisky scene in Scotland. There is hardly a week that goes by in which there is no news about another new distillery being built or the reopening of a distillery that has been closed for a long time.
Scotland, together with Ireland, is today considered the motherland of whisky, whose roots there go back to around 1500 AD.
