Reconstructed ex-sherry octave finish
This is a 14 year old Highland single malt from Duncan Taylor's Octave series, with the distillery left unnamed. It was distilled in 2010 and finished for three months in a rebuilt ex-sherry octave, number 12042253, before bottling in 2024 at 55.2%. It was bottled for the German market in an edition of 90 numbered bottles, without chill-filtering or added colour. The nose offers ripe grapes, creamy apricot jam and toasted oak, with salt and mixed pepper. Sherry sweetness and plum juice come through on the palate, alongside a sea breeze, green olives and butterscotch cake. The medium-length finish shows raisins, seaweed and light oak spice.

That’s why we created Glenbotal and became our very own first customers. We buy unique and hard to find spirits from ballots and private collections. Then, we share them with a small circle of friends and people who can appreciate a good dram.
