This festive release from Paul John undergoes a meticulous maturation journey spanning eight years. Following five years in ex-bourbon casks, the spirit transitions to 250L cream casks finished in both Oloroso and Pedro Ximénez sherries for two additional years. A final year of vatting brings the components into harmonious balance. The resulting whisky displays a deep amber complexion with a sophisticated palate of stone fruits and butterscotch, culminating in a refined finish with notes evocative of Christmas cake-a distinguished choice for seasonal celebration.
