The Unexpected Magic of Orange Wine Casks: Meet Scallywag's Bold New Dram

Listen to Podcast

A Winter Escape in Every Sip

Imagine this: you're nestled in a snowy alpine lodge, fire crackling, boots drying by the door. In your hand? A dram of Scallywag's latest Winter Limited Edition — meticulously finished in rare Spanish Orange Wine casks. This Speyside Malt Scotch Whisky delivers everything you want in a winter dram: boldness, warmth, and a flavour profile that dances between citrus and spice.

Why Orange Wine Casks?

Orange Wine isn’t made from oranges — it’s a white wine fermented with grape skins, often in clay amphorae, giving it a deep amber hue and bold tannins. These casks, imported from Spain, lend Scallywag layers of zesty marmalade, warming honey, and a whisper of dry fruit complexity that enhances the rich Speyside malt beneath.

Tasting Notes

Nose: Bursting with rich fruits, sweet marmalade and fragrant spices.
Palate: Zesty orange slices, lashings of honey and caramelised sugar.
Finish: Long-lingering warmth with a gentle fade of cinnamon spice and vanilla creaminess.

More Than Just a Whisky – It’s an Experience

Scallywag Orange Wine Cask Finish isn't just about taste; it's about evoking a feeling. Whether you're coming in from the slopes or simply craving a fireside moment of indulgence, this expression adds depth to winter rituals. It's bold (thanks to its 53.9% ABV), rare, and oh-so-giftable.

Perfect Pairings & Moments

  • Festive dinner toast: Serve after dessert with candied orange peel.
