According to the Cotswolds team, this one is "American and Spanish oak hogsheads and butts, seasoned with Oloroso and Pedro Ximénez sherry." They also qualify that by saying it's entirely sherry cask matured (don't let the American oak throw you off) full the entire term. It's rather brilliant seeing England back in the single malt game, no? The English whisky renaissance is going to be fun to watch.
