A.D. Rattray Cask Collection
If unusual aromas and flavours are what you seek from a whisky, then single casks are the place to find them. Beyond the fruity esters and the softening sweetness imparted by oak that distillers like to amplify, seasoned drammers relish the road less travelled. Their eyes light up to the smell of sweaty leather or burlap sacks or birthday candles. Master distillers may cringe, yet these weird and wacky side notes are what keeps whisky interesting. Of course, it would be a brave decision for any major distillery to release thousands of cases of anything exhibiting flavours that some might consider to be “off” notes. But for an independent bottler, the tiny quantities involved in a single cask make releasing whiskies that may be deemed out of character much less risky. That's why many of A.D.Rattray's single cask picks cater to the curious, often valuing intrigue over perfection. In stock evaluations they often note casks as “flawless” - a technical assessment of quality, but on its own, not necessarily high praise from Rattray. Everything is there, but where is the hook? Can a whisky be too balanced? In fact, it's not unusual for Rattray to overlook casks that simply aren’t interesting enough, rather than reject them for exhibiting peculiar notes. For drinkers who share their passion, this is the collection for you.
The Cask Collection series focuses on Single Cask Cask Strength whisky matured until the team at A.D. Rattray deem it ready, and then bottled at natural colour and cask strength, with zero chill-filtration. Nick's released a sneak preview a few weeks prior with three high proof bombs from the Cask Collection series and we're following that up now with the final seventeen releases from our recent shipment. This is one of the largest selections of multiple distilleries ever released by Nicks under one Indie bottler label at once, so there should be something for everyone, and is a credit to A.D. Rattray for the vast selection of quality whisky they have on hand. Plans for their new Glasgow-based distillery, The Clydeside Distillery, were approved in 2014 and their first whisky under that label bottled in 2021.
