Glentauchers is a single malt whisky distillery in the Speyside, which was founded in 1898, in the midst of the great whisky crisis of that time. But Glentauchers survived. Yet the distillery has always remained somewhat in the shade. That of course has to do with the fact that almost the entire production goes to the blend industry (Ballantine’s, Teacher's). In addition to a handful of distillery bottlings, some 600 independent Glentauchers bottlings have appeared so far.
This WhiskySponge bottling results from the 'marriage' of two casks, a 1st fill sherry and a 1st fill bourbon cask, in which Glentauchers single malt whisky has matured for 18 years. This marriage yielded a total of 250 bottles at a strength of 53% ABV.
Glentauchers is, except to insiders, a not so well known Speyside distillery. This Gordon & MacPhail bottling is a good and affordable option to get to know the single malt whisky. Matured for 14 years in a cask chosen by the bottler. Bottled at 43%.
If you want to try a sherried Speysider, this Glentauchers single malt whisky bottled by Van Wees is definitely an option, and not just because of the affordable price! The whisky matured for 11 years in two 2nd-fill Oloroso sherry casks. (46%)
Few bottlings appear from the Glentauchers distillery itself, but the single malt whisky is undoubtedly popular with independent bottlers. This is a 10-year-old, sherry-aged bottling by Blackadder. At a cask strength of no less than 64.3%!
All bottlings in the 100 Proof series from Signatory Vintage sell here for the same very reasonable price. This also applies to this 12-year-old Glentauchers single malt whisky. The Speysider matured in Oloroso casks and was bottled at 57.1%.
Glentauchers is a characteristic Speyside distillery whose production largely disappears into blends such as Ballantine's and Teacher's. Fortunately, we can taste the single malt whisky through bottlings like this: 10 years old, Oloroso finish, 52.2%.
