Auchentoshan The Bartenders Malt Edition 01 Lowland Single Malt Scotch Whisky
In stock
A collaboration between Auchentoshan and 12 bartenders from around the world. The Bartender's Blend includes whiskies that span five decades, and have been matured in a vast array of unusual and experimantal casks, including ex-Laphroaig, rum casks, red wine barriques, and German oak. Bottled at higher strength (47%ABV) than the core range of Auchentoshan, this experimental release is intended to be the first in a series of annual releases.
A Lowland malt disguised as something more like an Island malt, a very interesting mix of cask finishes that does work well together, something very different from The Auchentoshan distillery.
