Deanston 18 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Crafted by Hand | Bourbon Cask Matured | 46.3% ABV | Natural Colour & Non-Chill Filtered
Rooted in tradition, integrity, and sustainability, Deanston 18 Year Old is a Highland single malt that reflects the soul of a distillery like no other. Housed in a former 18th-century cotton mill, Deanston is one of the few Scottish distilleries to operate entirely without computers or automation, relying instead on hands-on, artisanal whisky making.
Certified organic and energy self-sufficient through on-site hydroelectric power, Deanston embodies a harmonious blend of heritage and forward-thinking sustainability.
Launched in 2015, this 18-year-old expression is first matured in ex-bourbon hogsheads, then finished in first-fill ex-bourbon casks, allowing the full richness of the wood to enhance the distillery’s naturally malty spirit.
