3 Sherry Scotches That Taste FAR More Expensive Than They Are

Great sherry-matured Scotch can deliver dark fruit, chocolate, roasted nuts and rich baking spice—but it can also become expensive very quickly.
In this video, I count down three value-driven sherry Scotches that deliver considerably more flavour, quality and character than their prices suggest. Every bottle comes in at under $100 Canadian, but none of them drinks like a budget whisky.
One is matured entirely in Oloroso sherry casks.
One is a powerful cask-strength release that received 97 points at a major spirits competition.
And one was named the World’s Best Single Malt in 2025.
Which bottle takes the number-one position—and which offers the most whisky for your money?
Watch to find out, and let me know your favourite undervalued sherry Scotch in the comments.

I tend to rely on independent bottlers, whose products may well not be widely available, so I'll hold off on the suggestions (e.g. can you get Infrequent Flyers Glen Spey from a PX cask?).
in my market the Arran and Glenallachie are more expensive than Macallan 12 the Tamdhu is $8 less expensive, all 3 of those are great scotchs. My Budget choice is another great bottle and in my market a great value Aberlour 12 coming in at $53.00, $20+ less than all of the above and $30 lees than Glenallachie ( the glenn price took off after being named scotch of the year).
