Aged 10 Years Single Malt Whisky (700 ml)

On Burns Night, 25 January 2013, Wolfburn lit its stills for the first time in over 150 years — and the spirit drawn that day, matured entirely in second-fill Oloroso Sherry casks, became the backbone of this 2023 debut age-statement release, marking the distillery's formal transition from NAS producer to a house with declared vintage stock.

Henderson Park, Thurso, sits at the extreme northern tip of the Scottish mainland, where Caithness flagstone filters the Wolf Burn spring water to near-crystalline clarity and cold coastal air slows maturation in traditional dunnage warehouses — clay floors, low ceilings, maximum three casks stacked — compressing the interaction between spirit and wood into something measured and deliberate rather than accelerated.

The spirit itself is shaped by a reflux bowl on the 3,600-litre spirit still (Forsyths of Rothes), which maximises copper contact and drives the house's characteristically light, fruity profile. Long fermentation in ex-Caperdonich stainless steel washbacks builds biscuity, orchard-fruit esters before distillation.

The 10 Year Old is bottled at 46% ABV, non-chill filtered, natural colour — and uniquely, distilled, matured, and bottled entirely on-site with zero automation, a grain-to-glass integrity claim almost no Scottish distillery of comparable scale can match.

The exclusive use of 100% second-fill Oloroso Sherry casks — rather than the first-fill sherry or mixed-cask approach common among Highland peers — preserves the distillery's delicate spirit character while layering dried fruit and walnut depth without overwhelming oak extraction.
