Glaschu Macduff 16: Oloroso Quarter Cask

Glaschu Macduff 16: Oloroso Quarter Cask

A Highland masterpiece enriched by the boldness of Oloroso sherry.

The Glaschu Macduff 16: Oloroso Quarter Cask  is a dazzling display of Highland whisky excellence, elevated by a finish in Oloroso sherry quarter casks. This limited-edition bottling combines Macduff Distillery’s classic style with the vibrant influence of smaller casks, resulting in an intensely rich, complex, and deeply satisfying single malt.

Initially matured in traditional oak barrels, this whisky’s final transformation occurs in Oloroso sherry quarter casks—smaller vessels that maximize the interaction between spirit and wood. The result is a whisky bursting with bold, sherried character, perfect for aficionados who relish intense, fruit-forward drams with layers of depth.

On the nose, expect an inviting bouquet of dried apricots, dark cherries, and toasted almonds, complemented by hints of toffee, leather, and a whisper of spiced orange peel. The Oloroso influence is unmistakable, bringing warmth and opulence to the aromatic profile.

The palate delivers a full-bodied, velvety richness, with flavours of dark fruit compote, caramelized nuts, and dark chocolate, balanced by a subtle undertone of oak spice and a touch of tobacco leaf. The small cask maturation enhances these notes, creating a harmony of flavours that’s both bold and elegant.

The finish is long, warming, and luxurious, leaving behind lingering notes of plums, toffee, and a delicate hint of sherry-soaked oak.
