TBWC Speyside #4 23YO 500mL

Graceful, mature, and richly textured, the Speyside #4 – 23 Year Old from That Boutique-y Whisky Company is a beautifully aged single malt that speaks with quiet confidence. Decades of cask maturation have softened and deepened the spirit, producing a whisky that weaves together fruit, oak, spice, and floral elegance in true Speyside fashion. The nose opens with classic depth: baked pear, dried apricots, and caramelised apple tart, all resting on a base of vanilla pod, antique oak, and a faint hint of rosewater. There's a subtle waxy character — reminiscent of beeswax, old books, and almond paste. On the palate, it’s layered and silky, delivering flavours of honey-drizzled malt, toffee apple, and spiced shortbread, balanced by gentle ginger warmth, cinnamon, and a touch of polished oak. Mid-palate, look for hints of orange marmalade, hazelnut cream, and elegant floral esters.The finish is long and mellow, tapering into lingering notes of dried fruit, vanilla cream, light tobacco leaf, and a final whisper of lemon oil and clove.
