This bottling of a Hercynian Distilling (Glen Els / Elsburn) single malt as an original bottling of the distillery was produced in the Willowburn series with the name The Dusk All Hallows Eve 2023. The whisky matured in first-fill ex-sherry and ex-Moscatel casks and was bottled in 2023 at cask strength in 360 bottles.
Elsburn (until September 2019 distributed under the name The Glen Els) is the best-known single malt whisky from the Harz region, produced by Hercynian Distilling Co. / Hammerschmiede, a manufactory for spirits and distillery for whisky in the Harz region of Lower Saxony. The name, like the Elsburn brand, is derived from the geographical location of the spirits manufactory on the Elsbach, in Zorge.
As of 2017, there are already more than 150 distilleries in Germany producing German whisky. Most distilleries produce clear brandies and use whisky production as a niche and side business. Whisky output is at a very low level of sometimes only a few thousand bottles a year depending on the distillery.
