Odd Society Spirits Boneyard (Batch 1, 2021)
46% ABV - British Columbia, Canada
Nose: There is a lot going on here: baking spices—nutmeg, red fruit jam, caramel corn, and tiny bit of ..wet pavement and chocolate malt?
Taste: That chocolate malt is carrying through here and I’m going to roll with that as a tasting note. It’s accompanied by fruits and baking spices.
Finish: Mostly spices followed up with some kind of blended fruit sweetness. Medium length.
This bottle of Odd Society Spirits Boneyard has a very, very interesting story! They have taken a sampling of each bottling for the past 7 years!(!!!) Absolutely amazing flavours given that fact. I feel like if I were in charge of the blending and proportions this wouldn’t have been anything better than a King’s Cup.
The whisky has traces of rye, single malt, and even maple-finished whisky (yum!) It was aged in a single cask using the Solera method. It has "Batch 001" on the bottle which makes me hopeful that they will continue to periodically release this one—if the Solera method is what they are using, then that suggests that "Batch 002" will contain some of this liquid before me!
Details: Limited to 150 bottles. A portion of every bottling session since 2016 was saved and then blended in a single cask.
