The Half-Century Blend #3 Bottling Note

Back in the days of yore ("yore" in the non-specific sense that can mean whatever moment of time we're talking about in any particular sentence), flavour ruled the roost when it came to whisky production - not yield. Ingredients and methods weren't incredibly efficient, but they resulted in staggeringly good whisky. Those days and those flavours are what the The Blended Whisky Company's Half Century Blend (made exclusively with malt and grain whiskies aged for over 50 years) honours. And it does so immensely.

Batch 3 is a release of 693 bottles.

Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

Nose: Aromas of rosy apple hard boiled sweets and pear drops blend with roasting chestnuts and varnished oak. Notes of musty leather and a touch of warm gingerbread make for a refined nose. It’s well worth spending some time here.

Palate: A sumptuous, elegant palate moves forward with soft, red apples and buttery Cherry Bakewell notes, and there’s a suggestion of pink grapefruit in the backdrop. It then becomes more complex, developing with vanilla, rye spices and toasted oak. Notes of melting brown sugar and warm flickers of cigar ash add genuine depth.

Finish: Warm, incredibly smooth, and ever so slightly dry. The finish reflects the nose and palate, revealing the character of a beautifully delicate dram of incredible sophistication and poise.

Overall: The maturity of this blend is astonishing; no flavours ever compete, dominate or distract. Everything works in sheer harmony.
