Perpetuity Batch 4

Perpetuity Batch 4

£49.00Price

In 15th century Leith, the monks of the order of St Anthony controlled the movement of wine through the port. The barrels would be taken from ships and stored in the Vaults, by the Kirkgate in central Leith. They employed a cooper called Henry Douglas to keep the casks in good working order. 

When wine began to go missing, suspicion fell on Douglas, who denied all knowledge. A local hermit decided to investigate and accuse the crafty cooper. Henry Douglas looked scandalised. ‘Me?’ he said, ‘I don’t know a thing about it. I swear I know nothing. And if I’m telling a lie, may I never head this cask!’. 

The words had hardly left his mouth, when the cask he was working on fell apart into staves at his feet and he ran into the furthest parts of the great vaults, never to be seen again although the sound of him can sometimes be heard trying to finish his cursed cask. 

 

Perpetuity Batch IV (2000 bottles made) continues the evolution of this infinite blended Scotch whisky, bringing vibrant layers of zesty, fruity sweetness to the fore, followed by a soft undercurrent of earthy, sooty peat smoke. Familiar notes of stone fruits and toffee apple are joined by bright orange marmalade, smooth vanilla custard, and the warming depth of Lapsang Souchong tea. Beautifully balanced, non-chill filtered and naturally coloured, this 46% ABV release is a refined continuation of the Perpetuity legacy.
