North Star Spirits | Obscurities & Curiosities | Glentauchers 14 Year Old

North Star Spirits is a Glasgow-based independent bottler known for its discerning selection of exceptional, limited-release whiskies. Their Obscurities & Curiosities series showcases unique and intriguing expressions. With a focus on flavour and individuality, each bottling offers a fresh perspective on well-loved distilleries.

This 14-year-old single malt comes from Glentauchers, a Speyside distillery founded in 1897 and known for its smooth, fruity spirit—typically found in blends, and rarely seen as a single malt except from independent bottlers. Distilled in March 2008 and matured in a single Oloroso sherry butt, this cask strength bottling showcases the distillery’s hidden richness with notes of raisins, molasses, dark chocolate, roasted hazelnuts and red currant jam.
