The Octave
For many years, Duncan Taylor Scotch Whisky Limited has experimented in the use of different cask sizes for the maturation of single malt and single grain scotch whiskies. This research stemmed from the simple premise that there is more interaction between the wood and spirit over shorter period of time in a small cash than in a large, allowing a faster melding of wood, air and alcohol.
To great delight, the spirit that resulted frim this method of maturation demonstrated a depth of quality mssing from a larger cask cover a similar period of storage. It had become smoother, more balanced and was bursting with character. With its rough edgers removed, the taste profile was changed dramatically, becoming akin to a whisky of a much more mature nature or vintage. It was polishedm bright and sparkling with intensity.
Duncan Taylor Scotch Whisly Limited are now proud to present the Octave cask range, the culmination of many years spent refining this unique maturation process. The spirit in this bottle is an exclusive example of a good whisky taken beyond all expectations to become rich, complex and wise beyond ots years.
