That Boutique-y Whisky Company is back with another belter from the Dailuaine distillery. This nine-year-old single malt was distilled in 2010 and initially matured in a refill hogshead, before finishing in a Kentucky bourbon barrel. Only around two percent of Dailuaine's whisky is bottled as single malt, with the vast majority used in blends, so it's always a treat when an indie bottle like this comes around.
Batch 8 is a release of 437 bottles.
That Boutique-y Whisky Company bottles limited edition whiskies from a variety of renowned distilleries as well as producing award-winning blends. These whiskies are adorned with cultish graphic novel-style labels.
Delicate layers of vanilla pods, buttered crumpets, and a touch of plantain, with toasted malt and a subtle minerality riding elegantly throughout.
Soft waves of clotted cream and vanilla shortbread lead to sweet, zesty citrus and cooked orchard fruits. There's some of that pebbly minerality from the nose coming through too.
A crackle of peppery oak joins towards the finish, balanced by silky vanilla custard.
