Glen Master Scotch-single
Single cask Scotch from a bottler, not a distillery.
The story behind Glen Master
Glen Master was never a distillery. It was an independent bottling label used by St Andrews Beverages Ltd., a Scottish company registered in Cupar, Fife, which bought single casks from working distilleries and released them under its own name. The documented bottlings date to the early to mid 2000s, roughly 2004 to 2006, and each one carries the character of the distillery that actually made the spirit.
That is why the range reads like a tour of Scotland rather than a house style. Glen Master Glenlivet comes from Speyside, Glen Master Bowmore from Islay, Glen Master Springbank from Campbeltown. One cask, one distillery, no blending. We have sold these as they surfaced, and the supply has only gotten thinner since.

Which Glen Master is right for you?
These are collector bottles, and the pricing reflects it. The Glen Master 14 Longmorn sits at $95.99 and the 31 Yr Glenlivet at $139.99, both on our shelf list. The 14 Yr Bowmore at $79.99, the 15 Yr Mortlach at $89.99 and the 11 Yr Spring Bank Sin at $99.99 are listed but frequently out of stock, since single casks do not refill.
