Glentauchers 2009 11 Year Old 1st Fill Sherry Butt The Samurai Kirsch Serie Signatory Vintage 70cl, 63.2%

Description

Glentauchers 2009 11 Year Old 1st Fill Sherry Butt The Samurai Kirsch Serie Signatory Vintage 70cl, 63.2% is a Speyside single malt Scotch whisky bottled by Signatory Vintage as part of the Samurai series for Kirsch Import. Distilled on 7 May 2009 and bottled on 15 October 2020, this 11-year-old release comes from a single first-fill sherry butt, cask number 900315, and was bottled at its natural cask strength of 63.2% ABV.

This is exactly the kind of bottling that stands out to independent-whisky buyers: a named distillery, a clear vintage, a full 11-year age statement, single-cask presentation, and a strong cask-strength bottling. Publicly available sources also list an outturn of 621 bottles, which gives it genuine limited-release appeal rather than just presentation value.

The first-fill sherry butt is the key driver of the style here. Public review notes and tasting tags point toward a whisky that combines ripe fruit, sherry richness, wood spice, chocolate, citrus, and a dry, spicy structure. That makes it especially appealing for customers who enjoy bold Speyside whisky with strong sherry influence and a more muscular cask-strength profile. The final sentence is an inference based on the stated cask type and published tasting notes.

Collector’s Note

This is exactly the kind of Signatory bottling that attracts enthusiast attention: single cask, high natural strength, a clear cask number, and a limited outturn for a respected importer. The Samurai label adds further identity, making it more distinctive than a standard Signatory release and especially attractive for buyers who follow Kirsch-exclusive bottlings. The point about added identity is an inference based on the bottling series and importer-exclusive positioning.
