I received a beautiful packet inviting me to participate in the Glenglassaugh 250 Club.
This is the opportunity to participate in the growth of the newly re-opened Glenglassaugh distillery by purchasing a newly-filled cask.
(I‘ve previously written about the upside & downside of cask purchases in “A Wise Investment?“)
A maximum of 250 memberships will be available each year – once the 250 annual memberships are sold, the list will be closed until the next year.
Membership does not simply include the cask (details below) but also:
- A personalized VIP Distillery Tour for the member & 3 guests.
- A Bottle of Glenglassaugh new make spirit.
- Unlimited free use of the @%) Club private facilities during the maturation period.
- A signed copy of the Glenglassaugh – A Distillery Reborn by Ian Buxton
- A limited edition print of the distillery
- A 10% discount on distillery purchases
Ok. Onto the details.
The following casks are available
- 1st fill ex-Port Pipe (580 litres) @ £6,500
- 1st fill ex-Sherry Butt (500 litres) @ £6,250
- 1st fill ex-Sherry Hogshead (250 litres) @ £3,000

A vertical tasting of 3 Glenglassaugh whiskies is coming.
Being a Glenglassaugh collector I already bought my octave cask. I’d love to get one of the Sherry hoggies or 1st fill red wines; but alas it’s a bit too much for my wallet.
Same reason why I left a gap in the collection, not buying the 40 yo (ca 1500 euro)
