This single cask bottling of a Braeval single malt was produced by the independent bottler Wemyss Malts under the name Oak For All Seasons. The whisky was distilled in 1994, matured in a first-fill barrel and was bottled in 255 bottles in 2016.
Braeval is a distillery in Chapeltown of Glenlivet, Banffshire, Scotland, which was founded in 1973 as Braes of Glenlivet and was greatly expanded in the 1970s. Since 1975, the name Braeval has been used to avoid confusion with the Glenlivet distillery. It was closed down in 2002 and reopened in 2008.
The Speyside lies in the north-east of the Highlands and is considered the centre of Scotland's whisky production. Around the towns of Elgin, Rothes, Keith and Dufftown there are more distilleries than anywhere else in Scotland, including big names such as Glenfarclas, Glenlivet, Macallan and many more.
Elegance and complexity are often cited as characteristic features of Speyside malts, but the variety of whiskies produced here is too great to speak of a single style.
Scotland and Scotch whisky is a global trend, a development that has led to a flourishing whisky scene in Scotland. There is hardly a week that goes by in which there is no news about another new distillery being built or the reopening of a distillery that has been closed for a long time.
Scotland, together with Ireland, is today considered the motherland of whisky, whose roots there go back to around 1500 AD.
