Infrequent Flyers Auchroisk PX Finish 2012 13yo

The Infrequent Flyers Auchroisk PX Finish 2012 is a sumptuous single cask release from the Alistair Walker Whisky Company, showcasing how a carefully chosen Pedro Ximénez cask can add remarkable richness and depth to an already characterful Speyside malt. True to the ethos of the Infrequent Flyers range, this bottling celebrates individuality, offering whisky lovers the chance to experience a one-off cask that will never be repeated.

Distilled in 2012 and bottled in 2026, this 13-year-old single malt enjoyed a finishing period in a Pedro Ximénez sherry cask, enriching the spirit with luxurious layers of sweetness, spice, and roasted complexity. Drawn exclusively from cask #9088, just 333 bottles were produced. Bottled at its natural 56.8% ABV, without chill filtration or added colouring, the whisky remains an authentic expression of both the distillery and the exceptional cask.

The nose is wonderfully inviting, combining ripe Conference pears with freshly brewed espresso and almond praline. It is an elegant introduction that balances orchard fruit with roasted richness, hinting at the indulgent character to follow.

The palate is velvety and decadent, unfolding with layers of cocoa, molten Demerara sugar, and silky crème brûlée. Gentle nutmeg adds warmth and spice, complementing the deep sweetness contributed by the Pedro Ximénez cask without overwhelming the distillate's natural character.

The finish is long, luxurious, and beautifully rounded, lingering with espresso, praline, toasted spice, ripe pear, and rich PX sweetness. A superb example of thoughtful cask selection, this limited release perfectly captures the craftsmanship and creativity that define the Infrequent Flyers collection
