Glentauchers Infrequent Flyers Single Virgin Oak Cask #806205 Whisky 12 Year Old · 2012 Vintage
In stock
The Infrequent Flyers range is a series of independent single cask bottlings from the Alistair Walker Whisky Company, created to showcase distinctive and often unusual casks from distilleries across Scotland. Each release highlights the unique character of an individual cask, with selections often coming from distilleries or cask types that are rarely seen as single malt releases.
Bottled in small batches or as single casks, Infrequent Flyers whiskies are typically presented without chill filtration or added colouring, often at natural cask strength, allowing the whisky’s full character and personality to shine through. The name itself reflects the rarity of these releases - whiskies that appear only occasionally, offering enthusiasts the chance to experience something a little different from the ordinary.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Sun-gilded gold deepening into warm amber with coppery highlights.
Nose
A concentrated bouquet of coconut, rum babas, crushed digestive biscuits and foam banana sweets, delivering tropical warmth and a playful, confectionery sweetness on the nose.
Palate
Initially spirited with spice, the palate opens to the sweet surge of virgin oak, where crisp cannoli shells meet buckwheat honey, Demerara sugar and a whisper of creme brulee.
Finish
Long, creamy finish powered by virgin oak, slowly fading through vanilla, coconut notes and warm spice. A wave of Demerara sugar and buckwheat honey lingers, tempered by crème brûlée richness, leaving a toasty, dessert-like warmth that persists with graceful elegance.
