Lindores Thiron Inaugural Release 2024

Lindores Thiron 2024 is distilled from barley sourced from the Kingdom of Fife and matured in a unique combination of casks: French virgin oak, bourbon, and wine barriques. This careful selection of casks creates a rich complexity and depth, with each cask type making its own flavour contribution to the whisky. The alcohol content of 49.4% gives the whisky a powerful expression without being overpowering.

Long and warming, with lingering notes of oak, spice, and a slight hint of red fruit. The finish is balanced and offers a pleasant, soft sweetness that lingers for a long time.
