This protects their brand and is very important for distilleries, and teaspooning is a response to the whole cask brokerage system. Teaspooning means that on most occasions the whisky is bottled under an well known brand name. In this instance Westport is most often a whisky from the Glenmorangie Distillery that has been teaspooned with a whisky from Glen Moray Distillery. Burnside is for instance known as being Balvenie – with a small percentage of Glenfiddich. A great way to pick up an amazing whisky but at a reduced price.
