Watt Whisky Strathmill 10 Year Old

Watt Whisky Strathmill 10 Year Old is an independently bottled Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky distilled at Strathmill in 2014 and bottled by Watt Whisky in 2025. Matured for its full 10 years in a bourbon hogshead, it was bottled at a robust 56.4% ABV, with only 310 bottles released. The whisky emphasizes Strathmill’s fruit-forward character, combining stewed orchard fruit, plum and gooseberry with honeyed sweetness, vanilla, apricot and warming spice. 

Food Pairing: Pair with roast chicken, glazed pork, Brie, aged Gouda, buttery pastries, apple crumble, apricot tart, or vanilla-based desserts.

Tasting Notes: A powerful but fruit-driven Speyside malt showing orchard and stone fruits alongside vanilla, honeyed sweetness, gentle spice and creamy bourbon-cask character.

Nose: Stewed orchard fruits and ripe plum lead into honeyed pastry and tart gooseberry, with vanilla sweetness developing underneath.

Palate: Full-bodied and lightly oily, bringing apricot, vanilla and soft confectionery sweetness together with orchard fruit, white pepper, clove, nutmeg and ginger.

Finish: Medium to long and warming, with lingering fruit sweetness, citrus, pear, gentle spice and a cooling herbal edge.

Serve: Enjoy neat in a tulip-shaped whisky glass. At 56.4% ABV, allow it several minutes to open before adding a few drops of water to explore more of the fruit, vanilla and spice.
