A substantial Glenlossie cask aged over 9 years in a new wood sherry butt, offering both scale and intensity. The use of a sherry-seasoned new wood butt provides significant interaction between spirit and oak, accelerating flavour development while maintaining structure and depth.
With a high filling strength of 60.03% current cask strength and a large-format butt yielding excellent volume, this cask delivers bold sherry character alongside Glenlossie’s naturally fresh and grassy Speyside profile. Expect generous extraction, rich colour development and a powerful yet controlled maturation trajectory.
This cask is particularly attractive for buyers seeking high bottle yield, strong flavour impact and flexibility — suitable for bottling now or for continued maturation to further integrate the new wood influence.
Released as part of Global Whisky’s exclusive private stock offering.
About Glenlossie Distillery
Founded in 1876 near Elgin in Speyside, Glenlossie is known for its elegant, light-bodied and aromatic spirit. Rarely bottled officially, it is highly valued by blenders for its clean, crisp distillate, making single-cask releases from the distillery both uncommon and desirable.
Typical Glenlossie character includes:
-
Fresh grass and herbs
-
Green apple & pear
-
Subtle honey sweetness
-
Soft floral notes
-
A silky, gentle texture
When matured in fresh oak, Glenlossie takes on deeper layers of vanilla, spice, caramel and oak warmth — creating a uniquely expressive malt ideal for bottling.
