1990 That Boutique-y Whisky Co., Berry Bros. & Rudd Exclusive Cask, Batch No. 1, Islay, Single Malt Scotch Whisky (51.8%)

Description

This inaugural collaborative release celebrates one of the UK’s oldest independent bottlers and one of its newest. It’s mind-boggling to comprehend that this delicious single-cask whisky from Islay began its ageing process before Berry Bros. & Rudd – or indeed any drinks company – had an online presence.

Age has been kind, marrying soft gingerbread and spice with softly integrated peat. It is delightful straight out of the bottle, with elegance and finesse. A drop of water enhances the subtlety and brings out apricot, salinity and huge complexity.

Barley

Barley is a key ingredient in the production of some of the world's most renowned spirits, particularly whiskey and Scotch whisky. Malted barley is used as the primary grain in many single malt and blended Scotch whiskies, where it contributes a distinct malty, nutty, and sometimes smoky flavour profile. In addition to Scotch, barley is also a staple in the production of Irish whiskey, where it often lends a smoother, creamier taste. The versatility of barley as a grain makes it a favorite for creating complex and deeply nuanced spirits cherished by enthusiasts worldwide.
