Product Description

Speyburn 10 Year Old Scotch Whisky: Light Speyside Single Malt with Orange, Apple and Creamy Toffee

Speyburn 10 Year Old Scotch Whisky is a 40% ABV Speyside single malt matured for at least ten years. It is built around the distillery's light, fruity house style, with orchard fruit, citrus and creamy confectionery notes.

Speyburn draws water from the Granty Burn, a tributary of the River Spey that has supplied the distillery since 1897. The official tasting profile highlights fresh orange, warm cinnamon and red apple before moving into toffee, butterscotch and vanilla.

The whisky is approachable enough for a new single-malt drinker but carries more body than its pale color might suggest. It works neat, with a little water or in simple highballs and classic whisky cocktails.

Tasting Notes

Nose: Fresh orange, red apple and warm cinnamon, with honey, malt and a light floral note.

Palate: Toffee and butterscotch over apple pie, soft malt and gentle oak spice.

Finish: Long and sweet, with vanilla, orchard fruit and lingering creamy toffee.

Food Pairings

• Apple tart: baked apple and pastry directly echo the official palate notes.
• Mild cheddar: cream and salt complement toffee and malt.
• Roast chicken: gentle herbs and savory meat suit the light Speyside style.
• Vanilla shortbread: butter and vanilla mirror the soft finish.

Serving Suggestions

Serve neat, with a teaspoon of water or in a highball. Speyburn also recommends an Apple & Soda serve and uses the 10 Year in an Old Fashioned and Whisky Sour, where its apple, vanilla and toffee remain visible.

Keep upright, tightly sealed and away from sunlight. Stable room temperature is suitable; refrigeration is unnecessary.
