Batch Innovations Burnt Malt is a blended whisky released to celebrate the Batch Distillery's tenth anniversary. The blend combines sherried sweetness with charred oak character and a gentle peat smoke — a three-element approach that creates genuine interest.
The 'burnt malt' concept is reflected in the charred oak and gentle peat elements — adding a dark, roasted depth to the sweeter sherried fruits and biscuity malt. The balance between sweetness and darkness is well-judged.
Batch Innovations Burnt Malt is a well-made anniversary blend with genuine character. The sherried fruits, charred oak and peat smoke create a whisky with more interest than many blends at this price. A worthy celebration of a decade in distilling.
