The Edradour 2011 Oloroso Sherry Butts is a remarkable single malt Scotch whisky from one of Scotland's smallest yet most esteemed distilleries. Edradour, nestled in the picturesque Highlands, produces only 90,000 liters of pure alcohol annually, making this whisky a rare gem. This 12-year-old expression was distilled in 2011 and meticulously matured in both first and second fill Oloroso sherry butts. Bottled at an impressive cask strength of 57.8% ABV on May 12, 2023, this whisky is offered in its purest form without reduction, filtration, or color addition. A limited release, only 4663 bottles were produced from a blend of seven casks, specifically barrels numbered 144, 168, 169, 173, 174, 175, and 176. Edradour's spirit is renowned for its exceptional performance in sherry casks, and this particular expression truly exemplifies that. On the nose, expect inviting aromas of fruitcake, raisins, and marasca cherries. The palate is rich and chewy, displaying flavors of toffee apples, biscuits, and ground cinnamon. This indulgent whisky offers a luxurious taste journey, harmoniously blending succulent dark fruits with the spirit's rich essence, creating an exquisite symphony of sherried goodness.
