This 10 year old single malt Scotch whisky, independently bottled by That Boutique-y Whisky Company, sports a label that may at first appear completely unrelated to the Glenallachie distillery from whence it came - why are there fish playing a rock concert, I hear you ask? Glenallachie's name translates to 'Valley of the Rocky Place', though there is nothing rocky about the third batch of this delicious whisky.
Batch 3 is a release of 2,483 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.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose Immediately sweet, with oodles of caramel, toffee apple and creamy milk chocolate. There's a pinch of pepper underneath.
Palate Notes of under-ripe Conference pear, a much more subtle sweetness although hints of caramel still peek through.
Finish A lingering minerality, with a touch of sharp grapefruit citrus and a little spice.
