2025 Anniversary Single Cask Release - Our first 12-Year-Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky.

This remarkable whisky marks a true milestone in Wolfburn’s journey – our first ever 12-year-old single malt, a decade and more in the making.

As the third release in our celebrated Anniversary Series, it comes from Cask No.163 / 2013—one of the finest Oloroso sherry butts we’ve ever laid our hands on. Back in early 2013, a precious delivery of Spanish oak arrived at our distillery. Amongst them was a cask that when sampled through the years showed great promise and was left alone to let nature do its work.

Twelve years on that patience and foresight has matured this cask into something worthy of being our first 12-year-old release. The whisky drawn from Cask 163 is sweet, refined, and beautifully complex – a spirit that captures the very essence of the Wolfburn in every sip. More than just a dram, it’s a tribute to craftsmanship, patience, and the quiet mastery of traditional distilling. Bottled at a robust cask strength of 53.5% ABV, this limited-release of just 749 bottles is a tribute to the passage of time.

Tasting notes

ON THE NOSE – Strong sherry aromas meld perfectly with Wolfburn’s signature sweet floral notes. An exciting glimpse of things to come.

ON THE PALATE – A panoply of flavours bursts onto the tastebuds. Oak and vanillin are immediately present, accompanied by sherry sweetness and hints of dark treacle. Wait a moment – give it time to truly reveal its depth. You’ll find honey, butterscotch, burnt orange and more, all in glorious harmony. Truly this is a delicious dram, testament to the skill of Wolfburn’s master distillers.

FINISH – We finish where we started, with wonderful sweet sherry notes making for a beautifully long, lingering finish.
