Aerstone Land Cask Whisky, a 10 Year Old Single Malt from the esteemed William Grant & Sons (best known for Glenfiddich Whisky), offers a twist on its Sea Cask counterpart. While the Sea Cask is aged on the coast, the Land Cask is aged in warehouses much further inland, resulting in a distinct flavour profile. The use of Highland peat adds a smoky element to this single malt, creating a balanced balance of sweetness and smokiness.
Aiming to simplify the taste messaging in Scotch Whisky, William Grant has designed the Aerstone range to be the perfect introduction for would-be Scotch drinkers.
Tasting note

The finish is a harmonious blend of sweet and smoky flavours, with hints of vanilla fudge, peat smoke, and dry oak.
