About this Woodrow's whisky

This quietly confident Lowland release from Woodrow's of Edinburgh offers a fascinating glimpse into a distillery located near the village of Pencaitland - a part of East Lothian long associated with elegant, floral Lowland malt. Bottled under the Warehouse Reserve range, this 10-year-old single malt was distilled in October 2014 and bottled in May 2025 at natural cask strength, capturing both delicacy and depth in equal measure.

The whisky spent the majority of its maturation developing gently in a refill bourbon hogshead before undergoing an extended four-year finish in first fill quarter casks seasoned with both Oloroso and PX sherry from Bodegas Fernando de Castilla. Quarter casks dramatically increase the surface-area-to-liquid ratio, intensifying cask influence over the finishing period. In this case, the use of both Oloroso and PX brings a carefully judged balance of nutty dryness, dark fruit richness, and soft sweetness, while preserving the distillery’s naturally floral Lowland character.

On the nose, the whisky is aromatic and inviting, opening with rose petals, citrus oils of orange and lime, and a faint suggestion of summer hay. The palate is silky and refined, unfolding layers of wildflowers, honey cake, milk chocolate, banana loaf, walnuts, and sweet orange. The finish is gentle and composed, lingering with digestive biscuits, Earl Grey tea, and a subtle touch of clove spice.

Bottled at 58.0% ABV with natural colour and without chill filtration, this is a beautifully balanced Lowland malt that showcases how thoughtful sherry finishing can enhance, rather than overwhelm, a spirit’s inherent elegance. With an outturn of 287 bottles, it’s a quietly distinctive release for those who appreciate nuance, texture, and restraint in their whisky.
