Inspired by the blooming orchards that herald the arrival of spring, Cask No. 72.125: Blossom reverie is a tribute to the fragrant blossoms that adorn the Speyside landscape. Falling into the Light & Delicate flavour profile, this dram evokes the daydreams of spring, where the air is filled with the promise of new beginnings and the joy of rediscovery. Coming in at a natural cask strength of 49.6% abv, this bottling is another addition to the Society’s range of USBs and was vatted at 28 years before being matured in a refill bourbon hogshead for a further year.

A heavenly mix of golden syrup, honeycomb, and milk chocolate biscuits arrived aside a juicy procession of apricot jam, apple sauce and chargrilled pineapples. Tangy marmalade on brioche followed behind, encouraging the inclusion of dried apricots coated with yoghurt, peaches and just a hint of tobacco. Wildflowers and blossom emerged with water, blending with fragrant honey and lemon curd on toast. A sprinkle of brown sugar tantalised the tongue, with a squeeze of lime and chamomile petals in milk. So, what is the mystery? This beautiful cask of whisky arrived with us as an enigma. We knew little of its history other than the whisky had been removed from the cask before being filled back into the original wood. A riddle in a glass.
