After 29 years, it’s finally ready to be poured. The Auchentoshan 1988 PX Sherry Cask Finish, released in British Columbia in January 2019 in limited quantities, proudly boasts its Scottish heritage—but with a twist. The facility’s famed triple distillation process comes to the fore here, demonstrating a nuanced complexity of rich yet approachable whisky flavour: dark chocolate, caramel, oranges, and raisins, not to mention some sherry sweetness. Aged for 29 years in Spanish oak casks and seasoned with Pedro Ximénez sherry, this iteration of the Auchentoshan 1988 PX is sure to warm up the late winter days.
