Best Dram 10 Years Old Glenglassaugh 1st Fill Oloroso Sherry Butt Single Malt #278 2014 54.6% vol. 0.7 l online kaufen

The Best Dram Glenglassaugh 10 Years Old is a strictly limited-edition single cask bottling that impressively demonstrates just how elegantly a Highland single malt can be refined through maturation in a first-fill Oloroso sherry butt. Distilled in 2014 and bottled in 2024, this single malt whisky matured for a full ten years in a particularly active cask, number #278, which imparted both power and aromatic depth.

With a robust alcohol content of 54.6% ABV, and left in its natural state – meaning it is non-chill-filtered and uncoloured – this bottling impressively showcases the full expressive power of the Glenglassaugh Distillery, situated on the north-eastern coast of Scotland. The influence of the Oloroso sherry cask characterises the whisky with dark fruit, spicy sweetness and a rounded, full-bodied structure.

Tasting Note

Nose: Rich and alluring, with notes of raisins, dried dates, cinnamon, toasted almonds, sherry, toffee and aged leather.

Perfect as a contemplative solo drink, with dark chocolate or dried fruit, or as the highlight of a sherry cask tasting.
