Two Brewers Yukon Single Malt Release 25

Two Brewers Yukon Single Malt Release 25

This item is archived.

Bottled at 43%, Release #25, is a 7 year old "Peated" and wheated single malt. Initially matured in virgin oak for one year, the whisky was then transferred to ex-Bourbon casks for the remaining maturation.

Producer Description

"Two Brewers offers peat laid bare, dusty ash complexion, iodine running in its veins, flesh of smudgy embers. Self indulgent and unapologetic. Like smoke laying in a chilled valley, the scent is dirty but still bright with grassy malt, apples and pears. The mellow entry quickly evolves, a malt centre with dusty ashes, scraggly edges thick with peat overload the palate, brash layers building with each successive trial."

750ml ml
Region:Canada > Yukon

Andrew's Tasting Note

Nose: doughy, fruity and decadent; juicy malt with just a hint of clean peat smoke; apples, pears, apricot and peaches; floral with vanilla and lavender; a faint ashiness with a touch of wet gravel.

Palate: round, bright and very malty; notes of cereal, granola and Honey Nut Corn Flakes; juicy with more white and stone fruits; still doughy with honey and vanilla; still mineral with flinty-gravelly tones; late clean smoke.

Finish: clean, ashy peat smoke with soft fruits, vanilla and honey; rather more-ish.

Comment: there is something about adding peat to the mix which can hide imperfections; in Two Brewers case it helps restrain the sweet-fruity notes; the wheat also seems to lighten the body and weight; a lovely release, but not quite as good as our new KWM Cask!
