This is a wonderfully quirky bottling of Invergordon single grain whisky from That Boutique-y Whisky Company. It boasts an illustration of a Coffey still (the distillery used to have two of these) though it takes the pronunciation of the name perhaps a little too literally!
‘That Boutique-y Whisky Company’ bottles single malts, single grains, bourbons, blended malts and blends from a variety of renowned distilleries. These whiskies are adorned with cultish graphic-novel-style labels.
This is Batch 1, with a release of 252 numbered bottles.
Massively deep and concentrated nose with creamy caramel and those hints of rancio one gets in a very good, old brandy. Black pepper and toffee apples. Old leather.
Unctuous, almost syrupy palate entry with stem ginger and cassia bark. Hints of nutmeg, clove oil and over-ripe black grapes. Black treacle too...
Long and toffee-led finish. All kinds of spice notes too, particularly more of those black pepper notes.
A very nice dram indeed
Just received a bottle for my birthday. It is an absolute belter !
Sweet nose, fir honey like, delicious palate with a coconut finish.
