SPEY Brume Dorée 12-Year-Old Cask Strength Single Malt Whisky
Amid the mist-veiled upstream of Scotland's Speyside region, Speyside Distillery creates a whisky where nature and artistry converge. Brume Dorée - meaning "Golden Mist - showcases innovation in French cooperage, with hand-selected 400-litre French virgin oak casks crafted by the renowned Tonnellerie Quintessence. These casks were chosen specifically by our team for their size and precise toasting level. Tonnellerie Quintessence's signature mist-toasting technique -using a delicate water mist and controlled heat-gently opens the wood's pores, enhancing the whisky's interaction with the oak. Every drop of SPEY Brume Dorée 12-Year-Old begins with a 120-hour fermentation and slow distillation, before maturing for 12 years and finishing in these specially coopered Brume Dorée French oak casks. This Cask Strength edition weaves together tradition and modern innovation-a whisky shaped by golden mist and refined to perfection.
Tasting Notes
Colour: Bronze
Nose: Rich and inviting with vanilla, toffee, and a touch of demerara sugar, complemented by aromatic hints of cardamom, gingerbread, and a delicate whiff of cranberry jam.
Palate: The palate offers a beautifully balanced, smooth texture, with an oily mouthfeel. Stewed apple flavours blend seamlessly with the deep, yet perfectly integrated influence of new oak.
Finish: Long and robust, with lingering hints of liquorice and a delicate undertone of oolong tea, creating a satisfying and complex finish.
