How Is The Perpetuity Blended Scotch Whisky Batch II Made?
This whisky is made in a similar way to Glenfiddich 15 year old, and The Loch Fyne Living Cask. A combination of multiple casks being slowly married together over time to create something different with every release is a very fun way to make your blended whisky stand out as something a little special.
This process can involve using some younger and older casks of malt and grain to unify together for a limited edition release every time. This is actually quite an exciting way to buy an affordable one-off release and compare them in the future. This batch has some lingering sulfur notes, it’s something that won’t appeal to everyone, sure. But if you don’t mind a little hit of sulfur on your whisky, plus that very vibrant grain nose it has, this could still be something very cool to have in your arsenal of alcohol.
How Should You Drink It?
As always, you should try this neat first. That is the way you can best understand the flavors moving around in the glass.
However, if you’re a little bit more adventurous and want to try something a little different, you should probably try making an Old Fashioned with Perpetuity Blended Scotch Whisky Batch III. Grab yourself 2oz of this whisky, and mix that down in a mixing jug or in a glass with ice, alongside 1oz of sugar syrup (lower it for personal taste), and a few dashes of bitters of your choice. I’d use orange or peach bitters to counteract those sulfur notes. Decant this into a glass if you haven’t made it in one already, and serve with a nice garnish of orange or lemon peel.
