Boutique-y Speyside #4 24 Year KWM Cask
$174.99
This whisky was featured on Day 6 of our 2024 KWM Not An Advent Calendar Tastings! You can read more about the whisky here.
Our second KWM exclusive cask from That Boutique-y Whisky Company is an undisclosed Speyside Single Malt likely saved from being blended into oblivion in a bottling of Chivas Royal Salute. It is 24 years old, and but 220 (500ml) bottles were filled at a strength of 47.8% exclusively for your not-so-humble whisky friends here at KWM. Boutique-y isn't supposed to tell you this is Glenlivet... but we know you are going to Glen-Love-it!
As for the whisky, it is lush, tropical, and floral... dangerously easy drinking... and 35% cheaper than The Glenlivet Archive 21 Year OB at 43%!
We aren’t told where this Speysider hails from, but That Boutique-y Whisky Company has done what they do best - beyond bottling great whisky that is - and offered up a few hints. Here is the first one:
"There are 46 Speyside distilleries so are you feeling lucky? Punk? Oops wrong movie reference. Seriously though, we really can’t tell you where this comes from, or indeed give you too many clues… But don’t let that stop you from discovering this spectacular Speysider - we bet you’ll glen-love-it!"
Just in case that sounds like a red herring, here is the second hint:
"Our label is a riff on ‘2001 A Space Odyssey’ where a spacecraft is sent to Jupiter to find its origins - a spacecraft manned by two men and the supercomputer H.A.L. 9000.
Our spacecraft is this very modern (with the joint largest capacity) secret Speyside distillery, that can be run by just two men, and a computer."
Based on that, it has to be Glenlivet or Glenfiddich, right? And Glenfiddich single malt is never independently bottled as far as we can tell - only casks of Blended Malt that have been teaspooned with Balvenie or Kininvie are sold or traded off... Hmm...

Whisky Sponge Ben Nevis 1996 Sample
$9.99
25ml Sample/Drample
1996 Ben Nevis has a legendary reputation, and it is becoming increasingly scarce. This 25 year old, from a Refill Butt, has been bottled at 53%. It is described as being very distillate driven.
Producer Note
"This is a hyper-distillate driven, almost ideologically 'refill' profile Ben Nevis 1996. You have been warned! However, for those of you who also enjoy this extremely pure, naked and invigorating style of highland malt whisky - you shall find yourself contorted with satisfaction. For this edition, the Sponge interviews his older self about his successes, failures and unrequited vengeances. You'll have to wait until next year, when we bottle the other half of this cask, to find out what his answers are... The first half of this stark-naked refill butt has been bottled reduced to 53% to bring out a slightly fruitier style on the palate. Next year we will likely do the rest at cask strength. If civilisation remains moderately intact. Stay tuned..."
