Burnt Bridges Blended Whiskey takes the deliciousness of Burnt Ends and dials it right up to 10! This limited release expression carries a 10 year old age statement, and has been made with a 50:50 blend of Tennessee bourbon and sherry cask-finished peated single malt Scotch whisky, resulting in a huge, powerful flavour profile. The inspiration from the USA's barbeque joints is on full display here, with meaty, smoky, spicy notes complemented by hints of sweetness, now with additional depth and richness imparted by the well-aged whiskies at its heart.
Barrel char, smoky bacon, a little maple syrup, savoury malt, tobacco, leading into a hint of brown butter.
Toasted sugar and vanilla, moving into spicy cassia and oak, honey roast peanuts, meaty notes developing throughout (brisket, ham, and sausages), then more demerara sugar.
A long, smoky finish with a touch of ash, and barbeque sauce sweetness lingering.
It's like Burnt Ends, but way, way bigger!

My husband loves this whiskey ?
Beautifully balanced, with the signature peatiness of the Islay single malt followed up by the sweet brown sugar notes from the bourbon. One to sip and savour over ice late in the evening.
Honestly the best whiskey I’ve tasted in the last few years. Big old glass, couple of ice cubes, nobody is sad anymore.
I expected some smokiness but, for me, this was way too smoky. i thought the hard edges of the single malt would combine with the soft side of the bourbon but instead they fought each other. If you love a full on smoky blast, then this is for you. I felt more like I'd been eating Frazzles.
