Product Description
Ready to embrace your taste for adventure? That’s what the Society is all about – and now our Whisky Team has created a series of Two to One ultra small-batch bottlings to take members on flavour journeys they won’t find anywhere else. These cask strength offerings are bottled in our traditional green bottles and follow the usual Society bottle code format.
Two to One is the combination of two casks of single malt from the same distillery that are married before bottling. Each one of the Two to One bottlings demonstrates the Whisky Team’s skills in experimentation, flavour creation and innovation, with the whisky in each bottle coming from a different maturation journey through a range of cask types to create something unique and delicious.
Tasting Notes
In the auction house of a fruit exchange, a cocktail of banana, raisins, tropical fruit salad and cherries meandered through the air. Smooth on the palate, like leaving a cube of Turkish delight to melt on the tongue, we found red wine and blackcurrant jam on toasted rye bread, joined by an exotic woody seasoning from a spice merchant's leather apron. Water introduced apple and refiners syrup on the nose, with coconut, raspberry and cinnamon following on the palate. The genesis of this small batch was two bourbon hogsheads of single malt Scotch whisky, with each transferred into new casks at 13 years old. One cask was a first-fill American oak oloroso hogshead, while the other was a new American oak hogshead with a heavy toast and a medium char. The casks were then married together, giving rise to this small-batch release.
