Hazelburn 8 Year Old Oloroso Cask | 2017/2025 | 48.2% ABV | Triple-Distilled Unpeated | 70cl
Distilled in 2017 and bottled in 2025, this Hazelburn spent its entire 8-year life in full Oloroso sherry casks — no base bourbon, no double maturation, just 96 months of Campbeltown triple-distilled spirit absorbing everything the Oloroso wood has to give. Triple distillation keeps the spirit lighter and more precise than most distilleries could manage at this age: no harshness, no juvenile edge.
