Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger – Turntable Spirits, 59.1%

The folks at Turntable whiskies have done it again, this time naming their cask strength blend after one of my favourite songs, from one of my favourite bands. Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger is bottled at 59.1% ABV, natural colour and non-chill filtered. But upon my first sip of this, I would never have believed it to be just over 59% ABV. The breakdown of ingredients will give you a look into how this thing glides across your pallet with the elegance and complexity of a Daft Punk mix.

26% 1st fill Oloroso Tamdhu.

21% 1st fill Bourbon Dalmunach.

18% 1st fill Bourbon Mannochmore.

22% 1st fill Bourbon Girvan.

13% Ex-marsala Girvan.

All of this culminates in a ridiculously easy drinking blend, at cask strength, that is laced with some of the peachiest, milk chocolate, nutty sherry driven style. This could be one of the best blended whiskies that I’ve ever had the privilege of trying.
