Port Pipe Cask Matured 10 Year Old

About

Wolfburn Port Pipe Cask Matured represents a milestone for this Scottish Highland distillery—a ten-year expression fully matured in first-fill ruby port pipes sourced from Portugal's historic Douro Valley. This is the first age-stated release in Wolfburn's Small Batch Series, a testament to the distillery's commitment to quality cask selection and patient maturation. With only 3,900 bottles released, this whisky showcases the transformative power of premium fortified wine casks on Highland spirit. The nose drifts with port aromas and delicate sea salt, gradually revealing layers of dried fruits—raisins, dark cherries, and sultanas—in a deeply vinous character. On the palate, luscious caramel and smooth vanilla arrive first, followed by wine-soaked flavours and darker notes of gentle oak smoke. Dates and figs add rich sweetness, supported by a supple, full-bodied texture and impressive depth. The finish is long and warming, with caramel and dried fruits lingering confidently alongside signature ruby port notes.
