Auchentoshan 15 Year Old 2010 (Cask#700968) - Berry Bros. & Rudd

This limited-edition Auchentoshan 15 Year Old forms part of Berry Bros. & Rudd's Odyssey Collection, within the acclaimed Crafted in Cask series, which celebrates the remarkable influence of exceptional casks on mature whisky. Distilled in 2010, this rare Lowland single malt combines Auchentoshan's elegant triple-distilled spirit with the rich fruit and complexity imparted by a premium Pomerol wine cask finish.

Initially matured in a single bourbon barrel before receiving additional maturation in Pomerol Cask #700968, the whisky develops greater texture, depth, and layers of vibrant red fruit while retaining the light, refined character for which Auchentoshan is renowned.

Bottled at a robust 55.7% ABV, this single cask release delivers a beautifully balanced profile of ripe berries, orchard fruits, gentle vanilla, and soft oak spice. The influence of the prestigious Bordeaux wine cask adds richness and complexity, enhancing the whisky's naturally delicate and approachable style.

With only 174 bottles produced, this is an exceptionally rare and collectible release that showcases both the versatility of Auchentoshan's spirit and Berry Bros. & Rudd's expertise in cask selection.
