Tasty old grain whisky from the sadly closed Cambus distillery, matured for a generous 29 years. This one was bottled by That Boutique-y Whisky Company, and features a snowy scene at the Cambus iron bridge - there's even a little robin, as if it wasn't quite picturesque enough!
Batch 7 is a release of 173 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.
Creamy butterscotch, marshmallow and white chocolate lead. The sweetness moves into poached pears, blackcurrant jam and toasted almonds. Steamed syrup pudding and honeycomb develop with time.
Green apples, acacia honey and tropical fruits emerge through heat and spice from cinnamon and ginger. Damp oak and a little lemon oil develop.
Dry and firm. Dark berries and fruit syrups linger.
This tipple is a fine example of the gran-based excellence of Cambus.
