Auld Alfords 52 Year Old Batch 2 That Boutique-y Company Spirit Drink (50cl, 35%)

You have to keep a pretty close watch on the Angels – if you don’t, they can take so much alcohol from your cask that what’s inside is no longer legally whisky. That’s what’s happened here, resulting in That Boutique-y Whisky Company bottling a 52-year-old ‘spirit drink’. We’re willing to bet it’ll still be a treat for whisky fans, though..

Back for a second batch, it’s a tremendously old spirit from Auld Alfords, independently bottled by That Boutique-y Spirits Company. This spirit is so old, in fact, that its ABV has dropped down to 35% during its 52-year maturation. Had it been bottled earlier, before the angels got such a greedy share, it would have been categorised as “whisky”, however, now it’s below the legal minimum 40% ABV, and resides in the category of “spirit“. The good news is, those Boutique-y folks know a great dram when they find one and recognised that this impressive spirit was too good to remain unbottled. Labelled “Too Late Bottled Vintage”, this is an intriguing, and flavoursome find for fans of well-aged whiskies and spirits.

Batch 2 is a release of 255 bottles.
