概要

European oak casks from Sicily, used to mature Marsala — Italy's most famous fortified wine. Marsala ranges from dry (secco) to sweet (dolce), and the style significantly impacts the whisky. The wine's characteristic cooked flavor and herbal complexity transfer to the spirit, creating a Mediterranean warmth distinct from Spanish sherry or Portuguese port. A relatively uncommon but increasingly sought-after cask choice.
