The Best Dram Glenglassaugh 10 Years Old is a strictly limited single cask bottling that impressively demonstrates how elegantly a Highland single malt can be refined through maturation in a 1st 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 with the number #278, which gave it both strength and aromatic depth.

With a strong alcohol content of 54.6 % vol., natural - i.e. not chill-filtered and uncolored - this bottling impressively brings out the full expressiveness of the Glenglassaugh Distillery, located on the north-eastern coast of Scotland. The influence of the Oloroso sherry cask characterizes the whisky with dark fruit, spicy sweetness and a round, full-bodied structure. (automated translation)
