Early Days batch 002 is Box Distillery’s second bottling exclusively for the international market.
It is comprised of a blend of peated an unpeated whisky matured in 130-litre casks, which previously contained American bourbon.
Early Days Batch 002 is 100% made from classic Pilsner malt, the malt which dominated the beer and whisky industries before modern, more effective barley types were created.
Two thirds of the ingoing whisky is smoked and in this case, the malt has been dried over glowing peat from Scotland.
Early Days Batch 002 is an exquisitely well-balanced all-round whisky with distinct bourbon character and an impressively young maturity.
Nose: Fruity esters, ripe pear and honeydew and a soft sting of salty peat.
Palate: Rich and warming with sweet vanilla, ripe pears and dry smoke.
Finish: Dry and peppery with lingering smoke.
