This is your opportunity to buy a share in an amazing first fill bourbon cask distilled in heart of Speyside in 2016. Tam is one of a pair of casks we were lucky enough to get our hands on in July 2020. It does have a brother, aptly named Winston, waiting to be re-racked into a fresh Oloroso Sherry cask.
This cask coming into it’s sixth year already shows a deep sweet flavours. Maltiness is still being mellowed by the fresh wood giving great toasted oak flavours. There is a touch of spice, orangey citrus and hint of chocolate. This cask was filled with 200 litres of new make spirit in 2016 at a filling strength of 65% alcohol. This dram harks from a multi-award winning Speyside distillery famous for it’s heavily sherry cask mature malts and this ex-bourbon cask offers the enthusiast the opportunity to experience the masterpiece in a different light. The next 4 years promise great things. Bottling is due in Summer of 2026 at 10 years old.

FAQ's
Cask shares split single cask whisky into smaller and more affordable chunks. Rather than having to shell out thousands for a full cask, cask shares allow multiple people to buy part shares in the same cask reducing the cost while giving you access to all the benefits of cask ownership. We call this a “Syndicate” bottling.
Every cask of whisky is unique and as such, yields a different number of bottles. These are divided into shares which are for sale through our website. When you purchase your whisky cask share we issue you with a certificate of ownership of your share for the cask purchased.
The Uncharted Whisky Co. then takes care of everything for you from the storage to the bottling once the cask is of age and the tax payments. We also provide you with yearly updates on your cask’s maturation progress, tasting notes, strength and colouring. Once per year, you can order a sample of the cask to do your own tasting.
