The Black Bottle Double Cask is a distinguished release from Black Bottle's Alchemy Series, which explores creative barrel finishes. This expression combines malt whiskies matured in Spanish sherry casks with grain whiskies aged in red wine casks, resulting in a bold and fruit-forward profile.
Black Bottle is a historic blended Scotch whisky brand founded by the Graham brothers in Aberdeen, Scotland, in 1879. Initially crafted with a strong influence from Islay malts, Black Bottle developed a reputation for its smoky, bold flavor, which distinguished it from other Scotch blends.
