Spicy & Sweet Distillery 24 — ex-bourbon(!) Distillery 24??? That’s right it’s been a while since we’ve seen a small-batch single malt release from Distillery 24, and now we’re offering up a 15-year-old further matured in a 1st fill ex-bourbon barrel. 10 years of maturation in Oloroso sherry butts and an extra five years of ex-bourbon barrel maturation give us Tubby custard. It’s thick and gooey and creamy and full of vanilla, custard, toffee, and churned butter. A thick 15-year-old malt for those who enjoy their big and bold flavours. Grab yours on Outturn day, limit of 1x bottle per member.
The Panel felt this one was … well, lardy! Its big, fatty, gooey and thick profile suggested loads of vanilla cream and custard, freshly churned butter, toffee, malty brown ales, waxes, biscuits and shoe leather. Water brought a more playful side with notes of citrus sherbets, flower pollens, toasted sunflower seeds and olive oil. The neat palate was strong and spicy at first, with lots of pumpernickel bread, rum ‘n’ raisin ice cream, clove oil, wintergreen and cold-brew coffee. Some reduction revealed notes of curd leaf, lime, malted milk biscuit, gingerbread and boiled lemon sweets. A big, hearty and syrupy dram, full of character. At 10 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.
