Cask No. 50.120

About Dawn\’s embrace: This is one of The Societys ultra small-batch whiskies (USB) and has an intriguing story. Once scattered across 13 separate casks that had fallen mysteriously low in volume, this vintage spirit was vatted before being consolidated into five of the barrels, giving a new lease of life to the spirit and allowing for a longer maturation. This refill bourbon is one of those barrels. Distillery 50 also boasts its own journey of reawakening, with the distillery having been closed and reopened multiple times.

Tasting Panel Note: From the quaint kitchen of a country house, fabulous smells arose. Delicious sponge cake with a layer of strawberry jam was drizzled with elderflower syrup, while pineapple chunks were steeped in calvados and honeysuckle petals rested on a gooseberry fool. Warm custard tarts were topped with nutmeg as battenberg cake was prepared on a sideboard. A little water delivered camomile tea, before homemade cloudy lemonade was served with fresh peaches and apricots. Finally, the creamy textures of porridge merged with more custard as brown sugar melted on top and the fine tannins of black tea lingered in the background. At 28 years of age, we combined selected casks from the same distillery. We then returned the single malt into a variety of different casks to develop further. This is one of those casks.
