Islay #3 7 Year Old (That Boutique-y Whisky Company)
Wait a minute... Haven't we seen this label before? With the LivingRoom Whisky chaps on it doing a pose from a movie? Perhaps this one is from a different timeline (if you believe in the many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics)... Anyway, this is a scrummy seven year old single malt from an unidentified Islay distillery, independently bottled by That Boutique-y Whisky Company. Tasty, smoky, time-travel-y stuff.
Batch 1 is a release of 830 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
A deep, dark and oily nose carries plenty of bitter chocolate, earthy peat and lemon juice. Prickles of white pepper rise through the dried grass, iodine and TCP that lie beneath, with touches of caramel and a metallic element also present.
Palate
Black fruit compote and salted caramel emerge through bitter herbs and drying baking spice. Toasted oak, sour citrus and golden malt add depth to a palate with a constant backdrop of clawing, ashy smoke and more metallic hints.
Finish
Buttery shortbread, winter spice and a little toffee. Yum.
Overall
Just sublime. The peat lover in your life will adore this, and so should everyone else!
