That Boutique-y Whisky Company has been in the indie bottling biz for over a decade, and it's safe to say, those folks know their stuff when it comes to stalking a prize whisky. Now with a Boutique-y "core" range, there's a chance to enjoy some of these treasures on repeat... and in grown-up, 70cl size bottles!
This is a peated single malt hailing from the Scottish Highlands, matured for a generous 18 years in a host of bourbon, oloroso, and Pedro Ximénez casks. Boasting vibrant layers of herbaceous peat and sooty smoke, with meaty malt, juicy fruit, and rich old oak, it's a real belter.
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 (in this case, it's a Boutique-y deer on each Emily Chappell designed label!)
Big bold notes of oak and robust, meaty peat are joined by waves of peach and apricot, grilled pineapple, and toasted vanilla.
Sooty smoke and charred herbs lead, followed by soft stone fruits and blanched almonds while mellow old oak nestles beneath.
There's a touch of meaty biltong in the depths, backed by herbaceous peat smoke and caramelised sugar.
This can’t be Talisker but you know all the beautiful things about Talisker 18? Well they’re all here… without the price tag. Love this. And THANK YOU boutique-y for finally doing 70cl bottles.
