Aerstone 10yo WG&S Land Cask is a distinguished single malt whisky that has been meticulously aged for 10 years within the unique environment of the Ailsa Bay distillery, located in the Scottish Lowlands. Carefully matured in warehouses set further inland, this expression benefits from the use of Highland peat, resulting in a rich and smoky character. The Land Cask is one of two distinctive styles produced by Aerstone, the other being the Sea Cask.
This whisky presents a nose that is robust and punchy with aromas of peat, coal tar, and damp bonfire smoke, complemented by vibrant and zesty citrus notes. On the palate, there's an immediate rush of peat and wood smoke, followed by a gentle sweetness interlaced with hints of spice and ripe fruits, all enveloped in a smoky embrace. The finish is characterized by a long-lasting smokiness.
