Sorry about this...

We can't actually ship Blended Malt #1 - Batch 1 (That Boutique-y Whisky Company) to the United States at the moment (although we're working hard to fix that).

In the meantime, our friends over at The Whisky Shop might be able to help you out.

Thank you for your support and understanding 🙂

Blended Malt #1 - Batch 1 Bottling Note

This is a superbly rich, malty whisky from That Boutique-y Whisky Company. It was actually almost entirely distilled at one of Speyside's most legendary distilleries, though after distillation the whisky was "spooned" (this involves adding a touch of whisky from another distillery). The reason for doing this is to prevent other companies selling a famous distillery's whisky as single malt.

The graphic-novel-style illustration on the bottle depicts a large crowd of whisky lovers worshipping a giant spoon - for the art of spooning the whisky allows bottlers to sell incredible spirits from incredible distilleries for just a fraction of the price they'd be if the name of the distillery was on the bottle.

There are just 210 numbered bottles in this batch.

‘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.

Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

Nose: Rich, creamy malt notes on the nose, with a touch of cooked fruit and blossom. Very thick and inviting. A little apricot and perhaps even the faintest hint of wood smoke.

Palate: Barley malt to the core, with notes of cocoa butter and manuka honey. Baked pears with allspice, hints of sweetened latte and toasted oak develop. Some toffee too.

Finish: Oaky, toasted finish. Salt caramel and butter, sweet, milky coffee.

Overall: A beautifully malty, rich whisky with all the hallmarks of one of Speyside's best-loved distilleries...

Blended Malt #1 - Batch 1 (That Boutique-y Whisky Company) Reviews

Good - but not exceptional

Being only 500ml, without an age statement, yet more than the price of a full bottle of the 12 year single barrel... I was expecting something interesting. Yes - it's unmistakably Balvenie - which I very much like. However, it's really no different (and perhaps even a bit less complex) than several of the 12 year single barrel bottlings I've tried. So it's decent but not particularly value for money. I'd guess it to be around 8-10 years old. Nice to see an independent Balvenie, but it's not one I would buy again.

Great Stuff

As per the description this is mainly made up of whisky from a distillery rhyming with Chalmennie... ok not very subtle but still.

The nose is light and delicate and belies this whiskies cask strength. This certainly is a richer dram than the colour and nose might suggest. Extremely well balanced on the palate and a dream of a finish.

Well worth the money and to have somethign unique on the shelf.

Spooning

I often wondered what spooning meant so thanks for clarifying
