The Guglhof TAUERN ROGG 8 Years Old Sauternes Single Cask is an exceptional speciality from the traditional Guglhof distillery in Austria. Made from hand-picked Salzburg Tauern rye, which thrives at over 1,000 metres above sea level, this single malt whisky combines Alpine originality with excellent craftsmanship. The special terroir of the Tauern rye gives the whisky its unique, spicy characteristics, while distillation using the classic pot still method ensures a particularly pure, full-bodied flavour.

The whisky is matured for eight years in Sauternes casks from renowned châteaux. These selected sweet wine casks give the whisky its exceptional depth and complex flavour structure. From honey-like sweetness to floral notes and subtle spicy nuances – the influences of the fine Sauternes casks characterise the taste of this exceptional single cask whisky.

Each bottle is truly unique: individually numbered, the Guglhof TAUERN ROGG emphasises its exclusivity and makes it a rarity for connoisseurs and collectors. The elegant 0.7-litre bottle is presented in a high-quality gift box that emphasises the uniqueness and premium character of this bottling.
