With a cask share (#106) in this Blair Athol Refill PX Sherry Hogshead from 2015, you secure two full bottles, bottled at natural cask strength, when the whisky is scheduled to be released in 2027 as a 12-year-old.
The whisky began its journey in a classic Refill Hogshead, but in January 2024 we transferred it into a Refill PX Sherry Hogshead. This decision followed a tasting by our panel, where a cask sample at 61.9% showed good character but clear potential for even greater depth. The sherry cask provided the perfect environment to develop the richer, sweeter, and more complex notes we are aiming for.
At the time of transfer, the strength was 59.4%. In August 2025, after around 12 months in the PX cask, we sampled it again, and the strength had fallen slightly to 59.1%. The difference was remarkable – even after just a year, the whisky had gained depth, roundness, and a pronounced sherry influence that promises exciting things for the years ahead.
If everything goes according to plan, the cask will yield around 230 bottles in 2027 at a natural cask strength of 57–58%. This corresponds to 115 shares. However, we are releasing only 85 shares for sale to ensure that all shareholders receive their bottles – while keeping a smaller number reserved for our web-shop later on.
By purchasing a cask share, you’re not just buying whisky – you’re becoming part of the cask’s story. You can follow the progress of this Blair Athol cask, along with our other active casks, through our online overview. And if you’re unsure which cask share is right for you, you’re always welcome to contact us by email or phone.
Note: We have ordered a fresh cask sample. As soon as it arrives, it will be possible to order a 3 cl sample from this cask directly through the shop..
