New Wolfburn 10 Years Old Vibrant Stills: Germany-Exclusive Cask Strength

Introduction & Overview

Wolfburn Distillery in the northern Highlands continues its exclusive partnership with Alba Import, presenting the eighth limited edition crafted solely for the German market: Wolfburn 10 Years Old Vibrant Stills . This single malt is drawn from two selected Oloroso sherry butts, aged 10 years, and bottled at a natural cask strength of 57.8% ABV, preserving the whisky’s full character without artificial coloring or cold filtration. This release under the “Vibrant Stills” series highlights a marriage of Wolfburn’s fresh, fruity marine style with the rich, sweet-spicy Oloroso influence.

Design & Presentation

Presented as part of Alba Import’s “Vibrant Stills” portfolio, this edition is crafted by hand with a focus on quality and small-batch production. It is a limited release, with only 1,302 bottles available exclusively for Germany. The emphasis is on natural coloration and an unfiltered profile, underscoring the artisanal ethos behind the bottling.

Maturation & Flavor Profile

The whisky matured in two Oloroso sherry butts, specifically Cask no. 116 from 2014 and Cask no. 264 from 2015, carefully married for this release. The result is an intense, mouth-filling single malt balancing fresh fruit notes with the deeper, sweeter sherry character. Expect aromas of milk chocolate, nougat, and cherry jam, complemented on the palate by banana, syrup, honey yogurt, and gingerbread dough. A touch of water reveals nutty nuances of toasted almonds. The finish is long with spicy notes and candied orange peel.
