Portrait: What makes The Epicurean Single Amarone Cask so special.

The Lowland Malt Scotch whisky for this limited edition is first aged in American oak casks before being transferred to a single, hand-selected Amarone cask for a second maturation of two years.
The Amarone cask comes from Italy's renowned Valpolicella region, known for its high-quality Amarone wine production. 

The Epicurean Single Amarone Cask is a full-bodied malt whisky with notes of dark chocolate, ripe cherries and a sensational spiciness.

"At The Epicurean, our ethos is to enjoy the finer things in life, and that is exactly what our innovative Wood Series embodies. With this Amarone finish, the result is a balanced blend of cask and whisky character - we're thrilled with the result." Scott Morrison, The Epicurean's Brand Manager
