Mossburn Single Cask Glen Spey Apple Brandy Finish

This distinctive single cask release from Mossburn pairs the elegant character of Glen Spey with the vibrant influence of an apple brandy cask finish. Bottled at natural strength, this limited-edition expression brings together the soft, fruity nature of Speyside whisky and the fresh orchard notes of apple brandy, creating a whisky that is both approachable and intriguingly complex.

The nose opens with aromas of crisp green apples, pear drops and honeyed malt, supported by delicate vanilla and floral undertones. On the palate, sweet orchard fruits take centre stage, complemented by notes of caramel, baked apple tart, creamy toffee and gentle oak spice. The apple brandy influence adds a bright, juicy freshness that enhances rather than dominates the whisky's underlying character. The finish is long and elegant, leaving lingering notes of stewed apples, vanilla cream and warming spice.

A beautifully balanced single cask bottling that highlights Glen Spey's lighter style while showcasing the complementary influence of a carefully selected apple brandy cask.
