Have you ever wondered how whiskies develop distinct, complex flavours? It’s all in the finishing, a process in which spirits spend time in one cask before being transferred into another for secondary maturation. These casks are typically infused with flavour from previous use, allowing unique flavours to diffuse into the whisky. If you think you’ve tried everything when it comes to whisky, we can’t wait for you to discover new and unique flavours of fancy cask finishes!
