Deanston Virgin Oak is a vibrant and characterful Highland single malt that perfectly showcases the distillery’s signature waxy texture and citrus-forward style.
Bottled at 46.3% ABV, this whisky is non-chill filtered and naturally coloured, preserving its full-bodied mouthfeel and authentic flavour. Initially matured in ex-bourbon barrels, it is then finished for 9–12 months in Virgin American oak casks, bringing a fresh layer of sweetness, spice, and intensity.
The result is a lively and expressive whisky bursting with candied orange, honey, and creamy vanilla, balanced by warming spice and a distinctive waxy richness. The virgin oak finish adds a bright, zesty edge and depth, making this a standout choice for those who enjoy fresh, flavour-driven drams.
Approachable yet complex, Deanston Virgin Oak is equally suited to neat sipping, casual enjoyment, or creative whisky cocktails.
