Description

Glentauchers 16 Year Old 2008 Connoisseurs Choice (Gordon & MacPhail) 70cl, 56.8% is a limited Speyside single malt bottled at cask strength after 16 years of maturation. Distilled in 2008 and bottled in 2025, it was drawn from a single refill bourbon barrel for the Connoisseurs Choice range, giving it a brighter, more spirit-led style than a heavier sherry-cask release.

With a release of 253 bottles, this is a small-outturn independent bottling with strong appeal for both enthusiasts and collectors. The profile leans toward ripe orchard fruit, tropical notes, citrus lift, soft chocolate, and delicate honeyed sweetness, making it elegant rather than heavy.
