1770 Glasgow 2015 Oloroso Sherry #15/137 – 46%

Jannik (Whizita Admin) — Fri, 16 Oct 2026 13:29:55 +0000

In 2015, Kirsch Import personally selected this special cask. The unpeated single malt matured for ten years in an Oloroso sherry butt before being bottled in 2026 at 46% ABV—without chill filtration or added coloring. The result is a whiskey that combines the clean, fruity character of the Glasgow Distillery with the depth of an Oloroso sherry cask.

On the nose, notes of ripe cherries, dark chocolate, and espresso unfold, underpinned by a sherry-like sweetness. On the palate, it is soft and round, before finishing with a spicy hint of black pepper.

Glenallachie 2015 Sinteis IV – 58.5%

The Distillery: Back in Private Scottish Ownership Since 2017
Founded in 1967, The GlenAllachie Distillery was owned by a foreign corporation for many years. In 2017, The GlenAllachie Distillers Company purchased the Speyside distillery—along with the filled casks in the warehouse. Its new owners: longtime Scottish whiskey expert Billy Walker and his partners Trisha Savage and Graham Stevenson. The new team was introduced to the distillery’s unique features by long-time employees. Among these: The distillery has four stills and two separate spirit safes—allowing it to produce two different distillates simultaneously, such as peated and unpeated new make.
Until now, The GlenAllachie Distillery has produced almost exclusively for blended whiskies. Single malt, on the other hand, was extremely rare—available only through independent bottlers, for example. This changed in 2017 with the takeover by Billy Walker’s team. Age statements are important to The GlenAllachie for its single malts: The core range consists of 10-, 12-, 18-, and 25-year-old whiskies. In addition, regular single-cask and special releases are planned—and starting in 2018, even a smoky whisky.

Glenfarclas 2015 Cask #7 Local Dealer – 57.0%

Jannik (Whizita Admin) — Thu, 24 Sep 2026 13:39:46 +0000

We have a very friendly relationship with the Glenfarclas Distillery and, in particular, with George Grant.
Glenfarclas, which means “Valley of the Green Grasslands,” was founded in 1836 by Robert Hay and purchased in 1865 by John Grant. To this day, it remains in the hands of the Grant family, who, with great foresight and consistency, continually offer outstanding single casks and special editions in addition to their standard bottlings. So it’s no coincidence that we’ve already had the privilege of personally selecting several Glenfarclas casks and bottling them under our own name. Since 2006, the tastings in Itzehoe featuring family member George Grant have been among our highlights. The Oloroso sherry casks, which are primarily used, give Glenfarclas its very special aromas, prized by whiskey connoisseurs around the world.

Benriach 2015 Signatory – 46%

Alexander Gutermann — Wed, 05 Aug 2026 15:55:08 +0000

The distillery Benriach is located south of the city Elgin next to the distillery Longmorn and therefore belongs to the Highlands. It was founded in 1898 and already closed down again in 1900, before it was re-opened not until 65 years later. As one of a few of Scotlands distilleries it has its own malting floors. Since 2008 Glendronach and Glenglassaugh belong to the Benriach Distillery Co. Ltd.

Clynelish 2015 – North Star – 55,9%

Alexander Gutermann — Fri, 24 Jul 2026 14:45:46 +0000

A young Clynelish that delivers exactly what fans of this distillery love: spice, wax, light fruits – plus a surprisingly exotic note that you don’t come across every day in your glass.
The refill hogshead gives the distillate plenty of scope to showcase its typical character, whilst at the same time imparting subtle, elegant cask notes.

Nose:
A peppery apricot Danish pastry, warm, buttery and with a delicate pastry note. Accompanied by a hint of banana leaf, which brings a slightly green, tropical freshness into play.

Palate:
Robust and full-bodied: a mouthful of kretek spice – those Indonesian clove cigarettes with their sweet, spicy depth – combined with a distinct hint of cinnamon that wonderfully underscores the Clynelish character.

Finish:
Here, the famous Clynelish ‘waxy spice’ reveals itself in all its glory: waxy nutmeg cream, creamy and spicy at the same time. Accompanied by a cheeky, citrus-fresh handful of lemon and lime Tic Tacs, which make the finish bright, lively and surprisingly playful.

Savanna Art of Rum by Xandro 2025 – 57%

Alexander Gutermann — Fri, 26 Jun 2026 14:14:39 +0000

On the shores of the Indian Ocean, at the foot of the Piton de la Fournaise volcano, the Savanna distillery is at home. Rum has been produced by hand here in the French overseas department and sugar cane paradise of La Réunion since the 19th century. However, the distillery and its exquisite bottlings as we know them today go back to Émile Hugot. Internationally known as “Monsieur Sucre”, he led Savanna into the future from the 1950s onwards with extensive expertise in the field of sugar.

At the heart of Savanna is high quality Rhum Agricole, Rhum traditionnel and Grand Arôme Rum, which the distillery is one of the few in the world to produce. The full-bodied molasses rum ferments extensively and develops a high ester content, similar to typical Jamaican rums. Unusually for distilleries in the French overseas departments, Savanna processes both fresh sugar cane juice and molasses in column and pot still – and only between July and November.

Free of any additives and not chill-filtered, Savanna rums reveal multi-faceted, authentic flavours that bear witness to the wild beauty of the island.

Dalmore 2015 James Eadie – 52,7%

Alexander Gutermann — Fri, 12 Jun 2026 15:38:39 +0000

The Dalmore distillery is located very isolated at the northern shore of the Cromarty Firth in the northern Highlands. It was founded in 1893. The distillery started using sherry casks very early, which gives the whisky a soft sweetness additional to the smokey and dry malt. Richard Patterson and David Robertson are two important men of the whisky industrie who work for Dalmore.

Laphroaig 2015 James Eadie – 52,3%

Alexander Gutermann — Fri, 12 Jun 2026 15:38:39 +0000

Laphroaig means as much as ‘valley at the big white bay’ and was founded by Donald and Alex Johnston in 1826. It is located at the southern shore of Islay. The whisky is famous for its smokey-phenolic, iodine-containing and salty character. Laphroaig has its own peat fields – which can be reached by the shortest railway of the world – and also has own malting floors.

Dalmunach 2015 MoS 26006 Mini – 57,4%

Alexander Gutermann — Mon, 18 May 2026 12:14:27 +0000

Dalmunach is a relatively young Speyside distillery in Carron, located on the former Imperial distillery site and part of the Pernod Ricard group. It is likely that much of the production will be used for Chivas Regal blending and that single malts from Dalmunach will tend to be rarer.
