Single malt Scotch whisky is one of the most revered spirits in the world. It has such scope for variation, it can offer complexity or simplicity, unbridled power or a subtle whisper. To legally be called a single malt Scotch, the whisky must be distilled at a single distillery in Scotland, in a copper pot still from nothing other than malted barley, yeast and water. It must then be aged in an oak cask for at least three years and a day, and be bottled at no less than 40% abv.

Bunnahabhain 30 Year Old 1989 The Octave (Duncan Taylor) Bottle No.29 70cl, 50.8%

In stock
  • ( 0 Customer Review )

This exciting 30-year-old Bunnahabhain from 1989 comes from the new premium Octave series from independent bottler Duncan Taylor, which features a lavish selection of exclusive whiskies.

With a capacity of approximately 50 liters, Octaves are the smallest casks used in whisky production. Their smaller size allows the whisky to have greater contact with the wood, allowing for faster and more intensive maturation. Sometimes just a few months in an Octave cask are enough to impart intense aromas from the cask walls to the malt.

Limited to 56 bottles.

This Bunnahabhain was distilled in 1989, and boasts all of those peaty notes you’d expect from an Islay. It’s given an extra layer or two of sweet complexity from the time spent in an ex-sherry ‘octave’ cask, of the kind that gives the series its name.

Glentauchers 25 Year Old 1996 The Octave (Duncan Taylor) Bottle No.6 70cl, 50.3%

In stock
  • ( 0 Customer Review )

This Glentauchers was distilled in 1996 and matured for 25 years in oak casks before being bottled by Duncan Taylor as part of the Octave series.

Glentauchers is an important single malt for blended Scotch, most recently a named component of Ballantine’s. As such, it is rarely seen in single malt form. Over the years, some bottlings were officially licensed to Gordon & MacPhail, and 2017 saw a distillery bottling launched under the Ballantine’s banner along with a Glenburgie and Miltonduff. Prior to that, enthusiasts were limited to seeking out independent bottlings like this one.

  • ( 0 Customer Review )

Glenfiddich 18 Year Old Ancient Reserve was launched in 1998 and produced up until 2008 when the range was updated and it was replaced. It can also be found in green, blue and black decanters

One of the best releases from one the best selling distilleries in the world. This one litre bottling allows the drinker to savour the subtle complexities of this dram even longer.

Produced by Speyside giants Glenfiddich, this whisky sits close to the top of their standard range, and enjoys a superb reputation with both drinkers and critics alike.

Matured in a mixture of former Bourbon American white oak barrels and Oloroso sherry casks, both of which are reassembled onsite by Glenfiddich’s high skilled coopers, this whisky possesses fabulous balance.

After 18 years of maturation, the effects of the cask are highly apparent on the palate, with both rich vanilla from the Bourbon barrels and dried fruit and spices from the Oloroso cask. Nevertheless, the spirit maintains the classic apple, pear and warm malt flavours that have come to be the trademark of Glenfiddich.

The whisky is bottled in modern rendition of Glenfiddich’s classic triangular bottle shape. With a soft mouthfeel and excellent complexity, this would make a great luxury option of any fans of this mighty distillery.

Springbank 1998 Duncan Taylor 25 Year Old The Octave

Springbank distillery has been owned and operated by the Mitchell family in Campbeltown since 1837, and it one of Scotland’s most revered distilleries. Following a brief mothballing between 1979 and 1987, upon the reopening the decision was taken to cease all sales to the blending industry and focus on its single malt sales. Today it is one of the only distilleries to malt, distil, bottle and mature whisky on the same site, and produces three distinct and highly prized single malts.

This Springbank was distilled in 1998 and matured for 25 years, including a finishing period in single sherry octave #63109. It was bottled by Duncan Taylor in 2023, under their aptly-named The Octave label.

Duncan Taylor was founded in Glasgow in 1938 as a cask broker and trading company. Its modern history began in 2001 when a former Glendronach employee, Euan Shand, purchased the firm and moved it to Huntly in Aberdeenshire, using the impressive cask portfolio it has amassed over the 20th century to become one of the premier independent bottlers in Scotland.

One of only 30 bottles.
