This distinctive English rye whisky combines a high-rye spirit matured for eight years in toasted French oak casks with English single malt that has spent time in an ex-Islay cask. Bottled by That Boutique-y Whisky Company, it brings together rye’s naturally spicy character and a subtle smoky influence from the malt whisky. Expect cracked black pepper and cinnamon alongside rich caramel, toasted almonds and hints of orchard fruit. The finish is long and warming, with lingering oak sweetness and a restrained touch of peat smoke. Perfect for: Whisky enthusiasts seeking a distinctive alternative to traditional Scotch or American rye.
