SUPREME CASK MASTERY
The Devil’s Keep 2023 Edition is a testament to the fine art of barrel perfection, drawing its soul from a unique five-cask, ‘quadruple oak’ process. Journeying through Bourbon-soaked American Oak, Tawny Port, Pedro Ximenez Sherry barrels, and finally, Hungarian Virgin Oak casks, this whiskey unveils complex layers of vanilla, wild honey, and toasted maple syrup, shaping its timeless character. Breaking new ground in maturation, this edition pioneers a revolutionary approach by introducing water early in the process, fostering an interactive relationship between whiskey and water in the cask. The result is a remarkably smooth, viscous, and flavour-rich whiskey, showcasing the brand’s commitment to innovative techniques and unparalleled craftsmanship.
