Teaspooning is a term used in the whisky industry to explain a situation where a distillery adds a “teaspoon” of another whisky into a cask so that it cannot be bottled as a single malt from this distillery. 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.
