Duncan Taylor

Tuottaja

The company Duncan Taylor was founded in 1938. The aim was to buy barrels directly from the distilleries and sell them to the blended industry. It was a bit slow at first and in the 60s the company was taken over by an American named Abe Rosenberg. He built up a large collection of barrels during the years he ran the company. After his death, the company was sold to Euan Shand. Since the start, they have had good agreements with the country's distilleries and receive early offers for newly filled barrels. Duncan Taylor today has its own concept where they move aged whisky to smaller barrels, Octaves, to get a touch of sherry in a final aging of 3-9 months. An Octave barrel is about 60 liters, which is about 1/8 of a large sherry barrel.
