Batch Two (First bottled June 2011, available now)
Nose -mellow, sherry, toffee.
Palate -rich, full yet delicately flavoured
Finish -rounded, with hints of spice.
Just as every batch was slightly different when my Great Grandfather produced it over 70 years ago, my 2nd batch of The Tweeddale Blend is 12 year old.
Seven of the eight malts are from the same casks as batch 1. The eighth malt is from a new cask and it is the same grain from a sherry butt again but 15 years old instead of 10 years old as it was in batch 1.
