Batch 177 Rum Cask

Batch 177 has been crafted from a combination of spirit matured for eight years in first-fill ex-bourbon hogsheads, married with spirit matured for seven years in first-fill Caribbean rum barrels. The flavour of the resultant whisky is a triumph, combining the smooth sophistication of bourbon maturation with unique sweetness and depth from the rum casks.

Roasted figs and prunes meet candied ginger. There’s a terrific depth of flavour with plum sauce and toffee meeting marzipan and sultanas. Rum influence shines through with overtones of molasses ever-present. Layers of sweetness unfurl over time, with fruit and honey notes beautifully bound together by silky oak tannins.
