23-year-old Springbank single malt! This is the 28th batch from the legendary Campbeltown distillery to be bottled by That Boutique-y Whisky Company, this time featuring whisky world newlyweds Alwynne "Miss Whisky" Gwilt and Herman "Kiek in dd Kook" van Broekhuizen. A marriage of sherry and Madeira butts, the whisky was treated to a little honeymoon in a bourbon barrel before bottling. See what they did there?
Batch 28 is a release of 411 bottles and by the time you're reading this it's probably already all gone.
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.
Big bold layers of burnt rubber and tar, oily ropes, resinous tobacco, and walnut oil.
Black Forest gateau – loads of dark berries and chocolate rest among layers of leathery oak and oily malt, with waves of coastal salinity riding through.
Salted chocolate and a hint of menthol gather for the finish, with earthy old oak, charred peppercorns, and dried stone fruits.
