Sherry and Scotch at Dallas Dhu Distillery

Information

For many years, Spanish sherry casks have shaped the flavour, character, and reputation of Scotch whisky. Today, it is the most popular cask type to mature single malt whisky. This informative tasting takes you on a journey from the sun-soaked vineyards and historic bodegas of Jerez to the stills of Speyside and into the cool, dark warehouses of Scotland.

We will provide the opportunity to taste a selection of whiskies ‘before and after’ their maturation in Sherry casks, alongside a variety of sherry styles, comparing flavours, aromas, and mouth-feel for a better understanding of how and why we use sherry casks to produce our inspired Scotch whisky.
