Notch Single Malt Whisky

— so named because it is not Scotch — is crafted from 100% unpeated, Marris Otter malt. Randy Hudson, Triple Eight Distillery's master distiller (he was selected to be the United States representative at the 2013 International Whisky Competition in Edinburgh) mills and mashes the grains at his distillery located on the island of Nantucket. Afterwards, he ferments the wort for approximately five days before twice-distilling the wash through his 175-gallon, Holstein copper pot still. Following distillation, the whisky is aged for nearly ten years in former bourbon barrels sourced from the Buffalo Trace Distillery in Kentucky. The Marris Otter malt, together with the bourbon casks, imparts notes of caramel, vanilla and buttery biscuits to the whisky. After a slumber in the bourbon barrels, a portion of the whisky is double-barreled, or finished, for just over six months in former Sherry casks, giving the whisky hints of dried fruit and apricots.

Tasting Notes
