About this Little Brown Dog release
Andrew and Chris love Glentauchers. If they were in a position to buy any Speyside distillery, which they hasten to add they're not, then they'd buy Glentauchers. This cask was originally good, spirit mature whisky, but it lacked character or depth, something a good wood finish would help. Andrew and Chris paired it with the Pineau des Charantes sweet dessert wine cask to add fruit and richness. The result is a fruity, sweet, rich peachy dram, hence the peaches on the label.
