From William Grant comes Aerstone Land Cask, a rich and smoky 10 year old single malt hailing from the Ailsa Bay Distillery.
A rich and smoky single malt, Aerstone Land Cask is matured in warehouses located further inland. It has a well balanced sweet character opening with burnt brown sugar, aniseed, and salted honeycomb quickly giving way to briny olive tones and hints of citrus and smoked meats.
"Peat dried and matured inland for over ten years for a rich and smoky tasting whisky with a lasting finish. Some of our casks are matured in warehouses that are located further inland. The conditions here affect our maturation climate and help create a rich and smoky tasting style of whisky that we call Land Cask. A taste of the Scottish elements from the warmth and comfort of your home." - William Grant & Sons
