In the very early days, many distilleries used Spanish sherry casks for maturation, but nowadays these casks are up to 10 times more expensive than American Oak ex-Bourbon casks, hence the ubiquitous bourbon matured malt whisky that we see on the market today and the dwindling number of true sherry cask specialists.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFortunately for us, stalwarts like The GlenDronach, Glenfarclas, Aberlour and more recently, Tamdhu, continue to put out the dark, raisiny goodness that we love, and this month is no exception!
