Without compromising on quality, this company has pursued its project since its founding in 1938, collecting whisky casks dating back to 1864. The founder, Abe Rosenberg, was indeed an American passionate and knowledgeable in the trade of Scotch whisky who moved to Glasgow and founded Duncan Taylor & Co. Here he continued selling but also began selecting the best productions of whisky and single malts, quickly becoming a true reference point in the art of trade and selection. With over 4000 casks collected, Duncan Taylor remains an undisputed leader in the world of spirits today.
