Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky | Aged 12 Years
The Curadan [Koor-ah-dan] is the "Architect of the Sacred." Inspired by the 7th-century wanderer who founded sanctuaries across Scotland, this expression represents the soul of the spirit—the wisdom that comes only with time and the perfect marriage of wood. Where the North Sea grit of Dingolfi meets the elegance of Speyside, The Curadan stands as a guardian of tradition and refined craft.
The Guardian’s Craft
- The Twelve-Year Vigil: A decade plus two years of patient maturation, allowing the spirit to soften and the wood to speak.
- The Marriage of Casks: Expertly selected Ex-Bourbon and Sherry casks provide a complex harmony of creamy vanilla and rich, dried fruits.
- Purity of Spirit: Bottled at a bold 46% ABV with Natural Colour, ensuring the whisky remains exactly as the Curadan intended.

Tasting Profile
- Nose: An inviting bouquet of sun-ripened orchard fruits and blossom honey, deepening into the rich, nutty influence of Oloroso sherry. Notes of polished oak and a hint of warm baking spices.
- Palate: Sumptuous and layered. The creamy vanilla and caramel from the Bourbon wood provide a silky base for dark chocolate, raisins, and zesty orange peel from the Sherry casks.
- Finish: Long, elegant, and exceptionally smooth. A gentle trail of sweet spice, dried apricots, and a soft, lingering oak dryness.
