Cognac Cask-Finished Single Malt Scotch Whisky.
Some casks tell a story – of craftsmanship, of patience, of time well spent. Back in mid-2024, we secured a small number of exquisite Cognac casks, crafted from the finest French Limousin oak, and entrusted them with something truly special. Now, after years of careful maturation, we are proud to unveil Wolfburn’s first-ever Cognac Cask Finish single malt whisky.
Matured to perfection in first-fill bourbon casks since 2017, this exceptional single malt whisky spent its final six months resting in hand-selected Cognac casks, absorbing their rich character. The result? A symphony of luxurious flavours – honeyed fruit, warming spice, and an indulgent depth of sweetness that lingers long after the final sip.
There are just 3,900 bottles in total.
Tasting notes
ON THE NOSE – Hints of dried fruits mix with sweet brandy notes. This is followed by aromas of vanilla, with just a hint of coffee and dark chocolate.
ON THE PALATE – A symphony of luxurious flavours. Dried apricots and almonds are overlaid with vanilla, accompanied by subtle hints of warm spice. Wait a while, and barley sugar makes itself known, along with soft dark chocolate. Truly, this is a decadent dram.
FINISH – It’s oh-so-sweet, with vanilla and autumn fruits gently fading away, leaving just a trace of caramel and sea salt at the very end.
