Bladnoch The Dragon Series Iteration V The Decision Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)
"the sweetest and most expressive of the whole series..." - whiskybase.com
The iteration with the highest ABV at 53.1%, also marks the final instalment in Bladnoch's five part series. The Decision hones in on the skills involved in the sample room where the decisions are made for the final blends. Here, all the variabilities and unpredictabilities are considered and weighed against each other, with an eye on future prospects and a commitment to delivering a consistent and sustainable whisky experience. Sourced from a blend of Hungarian Tokaji wine casks and Spanish Canasta Sherry casks, says one taster, "It's a bit like mulled wine and gingerbread. Sweet and dry at the same time. Exciting." (whiskybase.com).
Other reviews... This whisky is the sweetest and most expressive of the whole series, but with the surprisingly driest finish of all. It is quite sharp alcoholic thanks to the higher proportion of alcohol, but at the same time there is something gingerbread spicy and quite distinct sweet sherry... I quite liked it. I'm glad that I could pre-taste the entire Dragon series, but at the same time I'm glad that I didn't buy the whole bottles or the whole set... - whiskybase.com
