- Description
- Blue Hanger's 14th release is a rare blended malt from Berry Bros. & Rudd, combining seven carefully chosen casks into a balanced, complex whole that avoids the heaviness of single-malt one-dimensionality. The blending craft creates layers of orchard fruit, honeycomb, and spice that shift across the palate, with enough oak presence to suggest serious age without dominating. At 45.6% ABV, it's robust enough for contemplation. A collectors' release for those who understand that blending is as demanding as distilling.
