This intriguing cask comes from our Ultra-Small Batch Two to One program. Ex-bourbon casks were re-racked – one into 1st fill Oloroso and the other 2nd fill PX – before marriage. The result is a lot like the movie. Absolutely wild and you simply cannot turn away!

Tasting Panel Notes
The starting point for this small batch was two bourbon barrels of single malt Scotch whisky. We transferred one into a first-fill American oak oloroso hogshead and the other into a second-fill Spanish oak PX hogshead. The casks were then married together before bottling. The nose turned out fresh and fruity – fruit chewing gum, honeydew melon, orange and pear drops, with complicating elements of beeswax, lemongrass and chamomile, plus the promise of sweetness: crème brûlée, banoffee pie, white chocolate and foamy bananas. The palate gave us sherbet lemons, candied nuts and syrupy pears and peaches, with a dry finish of eucalyptus, tobacco, sweet chilli, cinnamon and cassia bark.
