The Cooper's Choice Secret Orkney 14 Year Old 2010 Cask #1201 Amontillado Finish

The Cooper's Choice Secret Orkney 14 Year Old 2010 is a limited-edition single malt Scotch whisky from Scotland's Orkney Islands, independently bottled by The Vintage Malt Whisky Company. Distilled in February 2010 and bottled in 2024, this expression spent its maturation in American oak before receiving an Amontillado sherry cask finish. Bottled at 55.5% ABV from cask #1201, with only 360 bottles produced, it offers an opportunity to explore mature island single malt whisky with the added influence of a distinctive dry sherry cask. Presented at natural colour and without chill filtration, this is a limited single-cask release.

Food Pairing: Enjoy alongside toasted almonds, aged Manchego, mushroom tartlets, roasted walnuts, dark chocolate and dried-fruit pastries. The whisky's Amontillado cask influence makes savoury, nutty and lightly sweet dishes appealing pairings.
