- Description
- Glentauchers distilled in 2008 and aged 14 years in a single oloroso sherry butt before bottling at cask strength by North Star Spirits. Aromas of Victoria sponge cake and biscuits give way to a palate layered with leather, dried fruit, rich sherry, toasted oak, and vanilla—a textbook example of oloroso influence on Speyside character. A rich, dessert-like dram for those seeking pronounced sherry influence.
