That's the hard thing for smaller/younger distilleries. They're always going to seem overpriced when compared to the more established players. Small volumes and getting taxed as soon as it's bottled is such a killer.

Yes, very true. And to be fair, I don't normally go for Bordeaux cask, but they were out of the sherry cask, will try that next.

I have had the Glendronach, but hadn't realised they had been taken over, so will grab a bottle whilst I can...

Yeah, tbh red wine finishes are extremely hit and miss across the board and I generally avoid them as well.

There are some good under the radar sherry offerings in diageos flora and fauna range. The Dailuaine and Blair Athol are good value, the Mortlach is a lovely dram but is insane money these days.

Thanks for the tips, both of them look very reasonably priced, so have added them to the ever increasing wishlist!
