This is a 17 year old single malt from Willowbank, a distillery on New Zealand's South Island. It is Batch 1 from That Boutique-y Whisky Company, bottled at 53.8% ABV, and it is one of 307 bottles. The whisky has been matured in Pinot Noir casks, which give it a deeply rich character. The nose opens with sweet black coffee and shellac, then dark fruit: blackberry, blackcurrant, blueberry muffin, sour cherry and dried plum, with a hint of salty liquorice. The palate is complex, with salted cherries, coffee grounds and bitter dark chocolate. The finish is long, spicy at first, then drying and chocolatey.

About Glenbotal

The idea of Glenbotal came to us naturally: as whisky lovers, we were always on the lookout for new experiences in the whisky world. That’s why we created Glenbotal and became our very own first customers. We buy unique and hard to find spirits from ballots and private collections. Then, we share them with a small circle of friends and people who can appreciate a good dram.
