That Boutique-y Whisky Company bottles cask ends and does not put an age statement on it. Quite a few gems have appeared, it must be said. They have also bottled a grain whisky, in this case an Invergordon. I missed Batch 1, but was able to get a sample of Batch 2 at a whopping 58,3% ABV.

Very creamy and honeysweet nose on all kinds of honey, sweetened breakfast cereals, white chocolate with popped rice (Galak Popri, anyone?) and deep fried donuts. Some Sirop de Liège. Honeysweet, I have said it before.

Despite the high ABV, this is quite quaffable. Does not scorch in the least. Creamy and mouth coating, for sure. The spiciness is very soft. Next to honey, I also get citrusy notes. It also has a small chemical edge, like varnish. Or lavender. Becomes somewhat green, if you get my meaning.

The finish is soft and lingers, but remains honeysweet, while the emphasis is on the green notes. Grasses, maybey?

Interesting grain with the nose as the best part. Pity of that softly soapy, lavender-y note on the palate.
