Deanston 18 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700ml

Deanston’s 18 Year Old expression is a classic Highland single malt that showcases the distillery’s signature style: naturally rich, honeyed, and beautifully textured. Matured for nearly two decades in high-quality oak and bottled at a generous 46.3% ABV, this whisky delivers depth without harshness and complexity without losing its elegant, easy-drinking charm.

Unfiltered, naturally coloured, and crafted using pure Highland water, this is a whisky made with patience, authenticity, and a deep respect for traditional Scottish whisky making.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Soft and welcoming with layers of golden honey, light vanilla, and fresh orchard fruit. Underneath, gentle aromas of malted barley, lemon peel, and a whisper of toasted oak bring balance and refinement.

Palate

Smooth, rounded, and expressive. The first sip reveals flavours of buttery toffee, pear, and creamy malt, followed by subtle notes of ginger spice, warm citrus, and oak warmth. The texture is slightly waxy — a hallmark of Deanston’s house character — giving the whisky weight and presence on the palate.

Finish

Long and comforting, with lingering notes of honeyed oak, light spice, and a gentle dry sweetness. The finish is clean, warm, and quietly complex.
