An indie bottling of Port Charlotte single malt (smoky single malt whisky from the Bruichladdich distillery), matured for 14 years before That Boutique-y Whisky Company got its hands on it. Once again, Phenol, O-Cresol, M-Cresol, P-Cresol and Guaiacol have all been featured on the label because these five molecules give peated whisky its smokiness. Without them, we'd be without smoky whisky. Terrifying, I know.
Batch 5 is a release of 845 bottles.
‘That Boutique-y Whisky Company’ bottles single malts, single grains and bourbons from a variety of renowned distilleries as well as producing award-winning blended malts and blends. These whiskies are adorned with cultish graphic novel-style labels.
Ripe apples, butterscotch and drying ginger complement plenty of oak-y smoke and salty sea air. In the backdrop there’s plenty of minerality and a touch of polished leather.
Dark and rich notes from chocolate, black fruits and oak char are tempered by lively winter spices and a thick helping of sweet treacle. Phenol notes are prominent throughout.
A hint of rhubarb and a flicker of peppery spice emerge with time.
Complex and characterful.
