The result is a new-make spirit at approximately 81% ABV: lighter, sweeter, more restrained than the typical Scottish distillate, and built to take on cask character slowly over years rather than decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 18 Year Old spends its full maturation in ex-Bourbon American Oak and Spanish Oloroso Sherry Oak casks — predominantly refill bourbon wood, with a sherry component that adds warmth and a secondary layer of richness without dominating. Eighteen years in cask on a triple-distilled base produces a whisky that is floral and cereally on the nose, with tobacco leaf, caramelised sugar, and toasted almonds coming forward, opening to a palate of sweet barley and tangy citrus before a long, well-balanced finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhisky Advocate scored it 95 points. Double Gold at the 2008 San Francisco World Spirits Competition. Auchentoshan calls it \"the breakfast whisky\" — not because it pairs with eggs, but because its sweetness and delicacy are approachable at any hour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr style=\"margin: 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e86 Proof\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlease note: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpirits are only available for local delivery or in-store pickup\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAll orders for shipping will be cancelled immediately.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Southern Wine \u0026 Spirits of NY","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":62591811977375,"sku":"8316","price":166.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0232\/3203\/files\/IMG-0847.jpg?v=1766967388","url":"https:\/\/eastsidecellars.com\/products\/auchentoshan-18-year-old-single-malt-scotch-whisky-750ml","provider":"Eastside Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
