$425.00 $382.50
This is a new mysterious single malt independently bottled by That Boutique-y Whisky Company! This is a 25-year-old single malt that was distilled by one of the eight distilleries on the Isle of Islay – isn’t Caol Ila on that island?
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.
There is an underlying sweet fruitiness on the nose; oranges and pink grapefruit are masked by waves of earthy peat smoke. There’s coke too, like ash from a blacksmith’s forge. The smoke is mellow, and it’s sweet toffee and licorice that lead followed by an oily maritime feel with a salty tang. The finish is oily with salty licorice, and sweet smoke that lingers and lingers and lingers.

These whiskies are adorned with cultish graphic novel-style labels that feature prominent figures from the whisky industry, tales from the histories of certain distilleries, or even a Velociraptor fighting a shark! There are usually plenty of other little details for you to find too.
From April 2016 onwards these whiskies will be bottled with age statements and That Boutique-y Whisky Company has been very clear about the reasons behind this move, still believing that flavor and overall quality are more important than age.
