Producer's Note

This is the second in a series of Torres cask finished whiskies, a collaboration that continues to flourish even 50 years after our families began working together. My grandfather started working with the Torres family back in the late 1960s, going on to become the sole selling agent for them in Scotland during the 70s and 80s.

In recent history we have started to work closely with the Spanish winemakers, trialling various types of their brandy and wine barrels for maturation of our own whiskies. The quality and influence of the wine cask is clear to see here - a bright red glow has been imbued along with the subtle tannins and red fruit notes we would expect from a Torres red wine.

Autmore as a distillery produces a light, grassy style of whisky that allows it to take on the full effect of the casks chosen for its ageing. This is a cask that celebrates a collaboration 50 years in the making - a combination of tradition and progressiveness that both families pride themselves on.
