Found North - Batch 012 16 Yr Cask Strenght Whisky 750ml

Found North Batch 012 Cask Strength Whisky stands as a triumph of mature grain sourcing and precision barrel reracking. This extraordinary release blends eleven distinct component whiskies, each aged between sixteen and twenty-two years. Built on a mash bill of 86 percent corn, 13 percent rye, and 1 percent malted barley, the liquid undergoes a double maturation process. Aged corn and rye spirits are transferred into custom-toasted and charred New American Oak and French Oak casks from top cooperages. Bottled at a formidable 128.2 proof without chill filtration or additives, Batch 012 presents an intense, unadulterated cask strength profile.

In the glass, the whisky glows with a deep natural amber hue. The aroma opens with sweet marshmallow, dark maple, torched cherry, and a warm trail of pipe tobacco. On the palate, a lush texture delivers cascading layers of burnt brown sugar, toasted marshmallow, and dark chocolate mocha. Savory notes of roasted nuts and subtle mineral salt balance the rich oak sugars. As the sip unfolds, tannic oak spices merge with sweet gingerbread and cinnamon. The finish crackles with long, lingering warmth, leaving impressions of rock candy, toasted wafer, and smoldering wood phenols. Enjoyed neat after resting or with a few drops of water, Batch 012 redefines modern independent whisky blending.

Masterful blend of 11 components aged up to 22 years.

Cask type aging: Used Oak, ISC Cooper's Reserve 24-Month Air-Seasoned Heavy Toast Char #2, Kelvin Heavy Toast Char #1, Chevalier Heavy Toast Char #3, and Heavily Toasted French Oak
