Ben Nevis 2012 is still in bottleWhy we chose this cask
Almost all of Glentauchers goes into blends, which is exactly why a single cask at full strength is worth doing. Fifteen years in the wood and it still tastes like a sweet shop.
One cask, 271 bottles.
Who it is for
For the drinker with a sweet tooth who has never tried cask strength.
Boiled sweets and pear drops, no smoke and no sherry: an easy first step up to full strength.

About Glentauchers
SpeysideFounded in 1897 amid the rolling barley fields of Speyside, Glentauchers is one of the region's quiet workhorses. From its secluded home near Mulben, just outside Keith, it draws soft, mineral-rich water from the Rosarie Burn to create a classic Speyside style, long-fermented, slowly distilled and full of floral, orchard-fruit character with honeyed malt and gentle spice. For most of its life Glentauchers has been prized by blenders, with almost every drop disappearing into famous names like Ballantine's and Teacher's, so a single cask bottling like this offers a rare opportunity to experience the distillery's elegant spirit in a one-off, never-to-be-repeated form.
