Blackadder Raw Cask Glentauchers 2012 – 11 Year Old – Sherry Butt (65.6% ABV)

Cask No. 900473 | 700ml

From the bold and uncompromising Blackadder Raw Cask series comes this stunning 11-year-old Glentauchers, drawn from a single sherry butt and bottled at a fiery 65.6% cask strength. This is whisky in its most natural, unapologetic form — unfiltered, uncoloured, and filled with natural cask sediment.

Distilled in 2012 and matured entirely in sherry wood, this expression delivers deep, rich fruit, robust spice, and a luxurious mouth-coating texture. The high ABV amplifies the dram’s complexity and intensity, yet it remains beautifully balanced for those who appreciate big, flavour-forward Speyside whiskies.

Tasting Notes

Nose: Spiced raisins, antique oak, dark cherry jam, and hints of leather

Palate: Dense fruitcake, burnt sugar, cinnamon bark, and clove oil with a sherry-soaked warmth

Finish: Long, intense, and evolving — from bold sherry spice to sweet tobacco and cacao

A sherry beast of a dram — not for the faint of heart, but a true reward for lovers of full-bodied single malts.

As always with Raw Cask: limited edition, cask strength, and gloriously raw.
