Another secretive Speysider from That Boutique-y Whisky Company! This one is a 25 year old single malt from a different Speyside-based distillery to Speyside #1, and it's packed to the brim with butterscotch richness, honeyed deliciousness and general mysteriousness.
Batch 1 is a release of 2,415 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
Through estery malt, candied fruit and nutty almond oil there’s barley sugars and a hint of Turkish delight. A rich drying sensation from ginger and cinnamon develops as touches of lemon citrus and white oak influence emerge.
Palate
A silken palate begins with praline, hazelnut and vanilla essence. Through subtle cedar, honey, dried apricot and maybe even a hint of rancio comes prickles of gingerbread, dark caramel and warming oak.
Finish
Long, rich and slightly peppered, with a hint of salted toffee below.
Overall
A richly resinous yet beautifully gentle dram. Just glorious.
