Turntable X Amrut TuSp Collaboration Drop 03 (Turntable Spirits)

Turntable X Amrut TuSp Collaboration Drop 03 (Turntable Spirits) is a blended Scotch from Turntable Spirits. It marries malt and grain whiskies, with grain from distilleries such as Cameronbridge. Cameronbridge, Scotland's largest grain distillery, lends a light, sweet, oily grain to such whiskies.

Grain lends a light, sweet frame while the malts bring depth. A wine cask held it, layering fruit over the oily grain. The whiskies are married and rested before bottling. Scotland's grain distilleries are the quiet backbone of its blends. Aged grain has become prized as a category in its own right. Aged grain such as Cameronbridge brings coconut, vanilla and a buttery oak to a blend. A blended grain marries grain whiskies from more than one distillery. The maker selects casks for the sweetness and depth each lends. Grain whisky gives such blends a light, sweet, oily frame. A period of marrying lets the whiskies settle together.

Undiluted at 53%, it is layered. Coconut, vanilla, toffee and a soft oil run through it, with a creamy oak depth. Soft toffee and vanilla sit behind the sweetness. Crème brûlée and oak draw out the close. A characterful blended Scotch drawing on Scotch grain whisky.
