Whisky, besser gesagt Rare Whisky, also besonders seltener Whisky. Das ist unser Metier. Single Cask, also Einzelabfüllungen, in Fassstärke, also ohne Wasserzusatz und mindestens 20 Jahre im Fass gelagert. Das ist unser Credo.

Als unabhängiger Abfüller sind wir stets auf der Suche nach besonders hochwertigen Whiskys, die zu unserer Philosophie passen. Ermöglicht wird der Kauf solcher Fässer durch die Unterstützung von ausgewiesenen Experten und durch ein engmaschiges Netzwerk von Brokern und Beratern.

Erst im Sommer 2020 haben wir das erste Fass, einen Ardbeg aus dem Jahr 1996 gekauft. Mittlerweile sind über zwanzig weitere Whiskys sowie eine Reihe anderer Spirituosen (Rum, Cognac, Armagnac) hinzugekommen.

Die Bandbreite erstreckt sich von sehr alten und extrem seltenen Whiskys der Premiumdestillen bis hin zu nicht minder reizvollen Abfüllungen von Brennereien, die vielleicht nur den Experten bekannt sind.

The magic of long maturation: whisky aged from 20 to 40 years

As an independent bottler of long-matured premium whiskies and spirits, we want to shed light on the fascinating changes that whiskies undergo when they mature in wooden casks over a period of at least 20 to 35 or even 40 years.

Whiskies that mature for decades develop exceptional complexity and depth. During the long storage in the cask, the whisky interacts intensively with the wood, resulting in a variety of flavor nuances. The tannins and lignins of the wood contribute to the development of aromas such as vanilla, caramel, dark chocolate and dried fruit. These aromas become more intense and complex over time.

Compared to whiskies with a shorter maturation period, which are often fresher and livelier, long-matured whiskies are characterized by a remarkable softness and harmony. Long maturation softens the sharpness and gives the whisky a silky texture. It also develops complex aromas of spices, leather and tobacco, which are rarely found in young whiskies.

A whisky that has been matured for 20 to 40 years offers an incomparable taste experience. The aromas are deep and complex, often with a subtle sweetness and a pleasant spiciness. Due to the long maturation, the whisky achieves a perfect balance of the different flavors, resulting in a harmonious and long-lasting finish.

An exclusive range of premium whisky casks is characterized by the careful selection of casks and the close monitoring of the maturation process. Each cask is individually assessed to ensure it meets the highest quality standards. This care and dedication is reflected in the exceptional quality and distinctive character of the whiskies. Through individual maturation times and specific adjustments in maturation, for each individual whisky. GourmetPool Limited Spirits is continuously expanding its portfolio with further premium whisky and premium spirits casks thanks to the special features and nuances of each cask.

Long-matured whiskies are true masterpieces of the art of distillation and offer a taste experience that is second to none. They are a testament to the patience and skill of the master distillers and a tribute to the tradition and craftsmanship of whisky production, the final maturation to the optimum flavor and the individual refinement to the glass.

Optimum cask management for whiskies matured for 20 years or more: The key to perfection

In the ever-changing world of single malt whiskies, the art of cask management has become a decisive factor in the quality and complexity of the end product. Especially when storing whiskies that have been matured for 20 years or more, transfer plays a central role. Whether in other warehouses or within a warehouse, the maturation conditions can be fine-tuned through targeted repositioning in order to further develop the aromas and complexity of the whisky and achieve the optimum quality in the glass.

Traditional methods are combined with modern techniques to bring out the best in each cask. The selection of the best casks, their care and restoration as well as the variation of maturation conditions are decisive factors. By rotating the casks between different storage locations with different microclimates, certain characteristics of the whisky can be emphasized or weakened. Techniques such as finishing in casks that previously contained other spirits or wines expand the aroma spectrum and versatility of single malts.

The aim of GourmetPool Limited Spirits is to preserve the quality and character of the whisky through professional cask management while at the same time discovering new nuances. Sustainability is playing an increasingly important role in this. Responsible cask management means paying attention to sustainably produced wood and considering recycling and reuse options throughout the entire process.

Perfection in a glass - thanks to well thought-out and careful barrel management.

Cask management is an essential part of whisky production, whereby the selection of casks, their care and repair as well as cask maturation are crucial aspects. Re-charging or re-toasting, for example, is an interesting method of extending the life of a cask and at the same time opening up new flavor profiles. By burning the inside of a cask, the wood fibers are reactivated, releasing aromas that enrich the whisky and give it an additional roasted aroma.

Experimenting with cask maturation is still a fairly new and fascinating process. Using casks that previously held other spirits or wines offers a variety of flavors and nuances that shape the character of the whisky. Micro-cask management and the variation of maturation conditions, such as the rotation of casks between different warehouses and storage locations within a cask store, are innovative approaches to enhance the quality and uniqueness of each whisky. Temperature, humidity, sea level, air pressure and the associated gas exchange as well as the change in maturation time play a key role here.

These processes show how traditional craftsmanship and modern technology work together to constantly develop and refine the art of whisky production. The aim is to achieve the widest possible variety of aromas and flavors. At GourmetPool Limited Spirits, we use this knowledge and the diverse possibilities to find an addition to our existing range of flavors in every single barrel in our portfolio. With the constant expansion of our premium releases, we are continually adding to the diversity of our range.

In a world where single malt whisky is constantly gaining complexity and depth, the art of cask management has become an essential part of whisky making. A good cask is a crucial player in the creation of an exquisite whisky.

Four decades ago, used American oak casks, formerly used for Bourbon, were the backbone of storage. At that time, demand for single malt was limited and the industry focused on cost savings and reuse. Today, however, our understanding of cask management has changed radically. At GourmetPool Limited Spirits, we are constantly striving to do justice to the personality of each cask. The aim is to discover and exploit this personality in order to create the unique flavour profiles that characterise our rare whiskies.

By adding first-fill or fresh-fill casks from different types of wood and with different previous uses - whether Sherry, Port, Madeira, Malaga, Bordeaux or similar - to our portfolio, we are able to develop the specific characteristics of our whiskies over time and cask type. This careful selection and deep understanding of the interaction of wood is fundamental to creating a product that is not only outstanding in flavour, but also tells a story of tradition and craftsmanship.

At GourmetPool Limited Spirits, each cask is a deliberate choice, a combination of science and art, guided by a vision to deliver the highest quality. This reflects our ambition to inspire connoisseurs with our passion for quality and our respect for the complexity of whisky.

Das Aroma- und Geschmacksprofil dieses edlen Tropfens überzeugt durch eine tiefgehende, fruchtige Basis, angereichert mit komplexen Noten von Weintrauben, die bereits vor der Destillation ein harmonisches Zusammenspiel erlesener Sorten versprechen.

Diese herausragende Abfüllung hat auch in der Premium-Spirituosenwelt Anerkennung gefunden, wie die Würdigung durch Fachverkoster illustriert.

Tullibardine and the 90s into the new millennium
The end of the 90s was a silent witness to how the old walls, which until a few years ago vibrated with life and warmth, fell into a slumber. But the silence was not to last. The distillery, which reopened in the early years of the new millennium, brought back the tradition and craftsmanship that made Tullibardine a cherished name in the world of whisky.

The distillery, which proudly claims its independent Scottish heritage, draws its water from the Danny Burn, whose source lies in the ancient Achill Hills. This water, which is filtered through the Scottish soil for over 15 years, gives Tullibardine whisky its unique character, among other things.

Today, Tullibardine stands not only for the rebirth of the Scotch whisky industry, but also for the perseverance and passion with which the people of the Highlands cling to their traditions. The distillery is a symbol of the timelessness of Scotch whisky, a legacy that lay dormant in the second half of the 1990s, only to enter the new millennium invigorated and full of life.
12/03/24

Tullibardine in the 1990s:
In the rolling green hills of Perthshire, where the history of Scotland and the art of whisky making come together in a timeless setting, stands the Tullibardine distillery. A place where the water is so pure that King James IV chose it for the production of his royal ale. In the 1990s, a time of change and renewal, Tullibardine found a new voice to tell its stories - through the innovative and more contemporary development of its whisky.

The 1990s were an era of rediscovery for Tullibardine. After a period of silence, when the stills remained cold and the casks empty, the distillery came back to life. The new owners, with a deep respect for the past and a keen eye for the future, began to fill the old walls with fresh "spirit" and the casks with new life.

Tullibardine's ageing style during this decade was characterized by a return to traditional methods, combined with a distinct touch of innovation and hints of modernity. The whiskies from this period reflect the soul of the Highlands - robust and honest, yet with a subtle complexity that enchants the connoisseur.

Among other things, the single malts were often matured in selected bourbon casks, which had previously been allowed to soak up the sweet, vanilla notes of American whiskey, but still had a subtle spiciness that retained the sleek and elegant style. These casks were carefully selected and brought to Scotland, and then gave the Tullibardine whisky a soft, almost creamy texture that set it apart from others.

However, Tullibardine did not rest on the laurels of tradition, but rather dared to experiment with the use of sherry casks, which gave the whisky a rich, fruity depth and a dark, golden color. It was a play on fire and oak that produced a whisky that carried both the warmth of the Spanish sun and the pithy severity of the Scottish wind and rugged nature.

The 1990s also saw the introduction of vintage editions, a tribute to the best harvest years of the grain and also the respective casks, as well as the qualities stored in the casks beforehand. Each bottle told the story of a particular year, captured in a drop. The Tullibardine 1990, for example, is a testimony to this time - an 18-year-old single malt that matured in ex-bourbon casks and was bottled at a strength of 59.1%. A whisky that captured the essence of its era: bold and fearless - powerful and robust, but with an elegance that only time can give. Right up to releases such as the 1991 Tullibardine from our "GourmetPool Limited Spirits" house, which has matured for 30 years in ex-bourbon casks and is complex, multi-layered and elegantly dry with a spicy-sweet maturity, followed by a depth that is due to the long maturation in American white oak.

The 1990s were a time of new beginnings and renewal for Tullibardine, a time in which the roots were not forgotten, but new paths were taken. The whiskies from this period are like a bridge between the past and the future - they tell of the endurance of the land and the creativity of the people who cultivate it. They are a liquid legacy that still echoes in the glasses of connoisseurs today and provide an insight into times gone by. It is always exciting to see, smell and taste how years, generations, ageing styles and the duration of storage are reflected in the essence of life water in a glass.

These casks were carefully selected and brought to Scotland, and then gave the Tullibardine whisky a soft, almost creamy texture that set it apart from others.

However, Tullibardine did not rest on the laurels of tradition, but rather dared to experiment with the use of sherry casks, which gave the whisky a rich, fruity depth and a dark, golden color. It was a play on fire and oak that produced a whisky that carried both the warmth of the Spanish sun and the pithy severity of the Scottish wind and rugged nature.

The 1990s also saw the introduction of vintage editions, a tribute to the best harvest years of the grain and also the respective casks, as well as the qualities stored in the casks beforehand. Each bottle told the story of a particular year, captured in a drop. The Tullibardine 1990, for example, is a testimony to this time - an 18-year-old single malt that matured in ex-bourbon casks and was bottled at a strength of 59.1%. A whisky that captured the essence of its era: bold and fearless - powerful and robust, but with an elegance that only time can give. Right up to releases such as the 1991 Tullibardine from our GourmetPool Limited Spirits house, which has matured for 30 years in ex-bourbon casks and is complex, multi-layered and elegantly dry with a spicy-sweet maturity, followed by a depth that is due to the long maturation in American white oak.

The 1990s were a time of new beginnings and renewal for Tullibardine, a time in which the roots were not forgotten, but new paths were taken. The whiskies from this period are like a bridge between the past and the future - they tell of the endurance of the land and the creativity of the people who cultivate it. They are a liquid legacy that still echoes in the glasses of connoisseurs today and provide an insight into times gone by. It is always exciting to see, smell and taste how years, generations, ageing styles and the duration of storage are reflected in the essence of life water in a glass.
