Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. This is your mellifluous announcer bringing you a broadcast on a most extraordinary libation, an English rye whisky from The Oxford Artisan Distillery, an End of the World whisky crafted with meticulous precision and sophistication.
Distilled from a mash bill of 85% rye and 15% malted barley, it underwent a maturation period of three years within the embrace of a singular vintage Port barrique before being artfully bottled by the esteemed purveyors, That Boutique-y Whisky Company, as part of their distinctive End of the World series. The label adorning this elixir harbors an evocative scenario, visualising the potential demise of our world through the lens of a climate disaster. A symbolically meteorological tableau, if you will, elegantly captured in the artistry that graces this bottle.
This rye whisky is more than a libation; it encapsulates the resilience of craft amidst an uncertain climate and celebrates The Oxford Artisan Distillery's commitment to sustainability, organic farming, and traditional artisanal methods.
Batch 2 is a release of 410 bottles.
That Boutique-y Whisky Company bottles limited edition whiskies from a variety of renowned distilleries as well as producing award-winning blends, all adorned with cultish graphic novel-style labels. The brand won Spirits Bottler of the Year at the 2023 Spirits Business Awards, and Blender of the Year went to Sam Simmons, captain of the Boutique-y clan who oversees every one of these releases.
A hearty dose of rye spice leads with dried clove, cinnamon, and pepper before jammy, tangy red berries, sweet summer fruits, and a dash of cacao arrive.
Creamy milk chocolate and spiced fruits balance peppery spice, while the Port cask brings notes of rich, jammy berries.
Rich, vinous oak and sweet, dark fruits linger.
