Living Souls 40 Year Old Blend

THE REVIEW

Living Souls are a new kid on the block with indie bottlings, and what a way to kick it off! A 40 year old blended whisky with an absurdly affordable retail price of £120.

I’ve got no information about the contents of this blend, just that it was all recasked into a sherry butt in 1998. However, the depth of flavour in this liquid is something to rival and indeed beat, most of the classic ‘premium’ blended whiskies.

Moving from tropical fruit, herbaceousness, waxiness, gentle sherried aromas, and a little blast of peat smoke… maybe. If you’re looking for something quite special and quite affordable, this is the only thing you should be looking at if you want an insane age stated whisky.
