The wonderful Auchroisk distillery is one of Speyside's truly unsung heroes. Often filled into subpar casks, intended only for blending, its unique character can still shine through even when the wood is lacking. Add a great, high-quality barrel and you've got a recipe for a gem. The fact that it's so affordable shouldn't scare off the more discerning malt nuts out there. We're the lucky beneficiaries of some outstanding relationships in Scotland, which has afforded us unparalleled access and pricing in the market. The Auchroisk distillery is relatively young in Scottish terms, built to bolster the stocks of the famous J&B Blended Scotch, along with their other stalwart malts - Knockando, Glen Spey and Strathmill. Based near Mulbern, the single-malt brand was not used initially, instead opting to use "The Singleton" name, presumably due to the difficult pronunciation. It should be said, "Ah-Thrusk!" Meaning the shallow burn beyond the red stream, it's remarkable how much meaning can be packed into so few syllables. Likewise, it's a shock they've been able to pack so much flavor into this humble little bottle. It was originally distilled and filled into a third fill sherry butt in 2010 before being transferred to a freshly dumped bourbon barrel in the middle of 2020. Bottled at cask strength of 56.6% abv without chillfiltration or coloring of any kind.
