Single Malt
Scotland
Sherry
At the end of 2025, the team at That Boutique-y Whisky Company delved through the treasures in their warehouse and chose a handful of the best single casks to bottle for a limited edition series. This grand old Glen Garioch single malt makes a fine addition!
This Highlander spent its lifetime (an impressive 27 years) maturing in a single refill sherry butt. "Time travel in a glass" is how the Boutique-y folk describe the nose. It's funky, it's old school, it's wild – some ought to read this as a warning, while others lap it up with glee. A classic distillery, a generous age, and with it, plenty of distinction. A release of 189 bottles.

That Boutique-y Whisky Company bottles limited edition whiskies from a variety of renowned distilleries as well as producing award-winning blends, all adorned with cultish graphic novel-style labels. The brand won Spirits Bottler of the Year at the 2023 Spirits Business Awards, and Blender of the Year went to Sam Simmons, captain of the Boutique-y clan who oversees every one of these releases.
Wet hay/farmyard, and a touch of ripe cheese, polished oak, warm vinyl/lamnate flooring, rich malt, hints of gooseberry, brown banana, and overripe fruit funk.
Playdough, fruity esters, burnt cream, damp oak, and more of that brown banana funk. Dense old oak and leather, backed by hints of mango yoghurt, and salted papaya.
Tropical fruit sweetness lingers for the finish, with hints of guava balancing notes of composted peels, caramelised biscuits, earthy toffee, and ancient oak.
