Wolfburn Batch 458 is a 50/50 blend of whisky matured for seven years in first-fill Pedro Xim*nez sherry butts and lightly-peated spirit matured in first-fill bourbon barrels. The whisky was released in a limited quantity of 5,100 bottles. The whisky has a rich, sweet flavor with a depth of flavor that is truly exceptional. The nose has notes of treacle and coffee, accompanied by subtle tones of cherry and dried spice. The palate is full of hazelnut, almonds and cloves, with soft peat smoke present. The tannins are subtle, allowing the whisky to develop beautifully. The finish is sweet and treacle-y, with hints of spice lingering until the end.
