Blended 40 Years Old

Batch 3

This release, created by Living Souls, is batch 3 of their unique 40 Years Old blends. It was laid down to marry in 1998 in refill sherry butts and finished in ex-islay quarter casks. Smoky grilled BBQ aroma melds with bursts of juicy mango, pineapple, and citrus, complemented by soft vanilla and toasted coconut. Gentle smoke adds a savoury edge, grounding the tropical sweetness with a touch of fire and spice.

The Whisky Exchange “Scotch or Bourbon? Let’s Compare” – Whisky News

Scotch vs Bourbon? Let’s Compare

Scotch. Bourbon. Iconic whiskies. With all the confusion surrounding their differences we’re diving into what sets one apart from the other. Scotch can only come from Scotland, Bourbon only from the USA, with single malt Scotch using only malted barley and Bourbon a corn-led mash bill. Scotch is predominantly aged in reused oak casks while Bourbon must be aged in new, charred oak casks.

Intriguing Casks at Isle of Harris Distillery – Scotch Whisky News

There’s no end to the elemental alchemy unfolding in our warehouses in Ardhasaig.

Cask by cask, our island spirit evolves in oak, shaped slowly by wood, time, and the Atlantic air that blows over the deep bay beneath the Clisham mountain.

We’ve taken great care in the casks we choose, from ex-bourbon barrels sourced from Kentucky’s Buffalo Trace Distillery to sherry butts from José y Miguel Martín in Spain.

Alongside these, a small number of more experimental casks sit among them. Some of the most intriguing come from Pennsylvania, thanks to our friends at Dad’s Hat Rye, makers of traditional rye whiskey.

Filled back in 2016, these ex-rye barrels have been maturing our spirit in their own distinctive way ever since.

Where this particular path will lead, we don’t yet know. But that’s part of the journey of learning and letting the island have its say.

Editor’s Cut: The joys of English whisky 🥃 – English Whisky News

Happy English Whisky Week! I’ve lost count of the number of times somebody has asked me, “Can you get whisky in England?” I resist the urge to roll my eyes and instead use it as the optimal time to list of some of the exceptional brands that are currently producing our favourite spirit as good as anybody else on the planet.

One of the first drams I ever tried when I joined the wonderful whisky world was one of the Whiskymaker’s Reserve expressions from the Lakes Distillery. I was blown away by its quality, and it’s the standard I’ve held English whisky to ever since.

Next time you’re looking for a new dram to try, give an English a look — you will be as amazed as I was. A select few are below — have a peruse and enjoy.
