WOVEN WHISKY - HEMISPHERES
WOVEN WHISKY - HEMISPHERES
ABOUT
HEMISPHERES is a complex blend of two whiskies, worlds apart. A tiny New Zealand maker of Manuka smoke Single Malt. One of Scotland’s largest distilleries; urban, yet elegant. Some things shouldn’t work. But they do. En-abled by ingenuity, Thompson Whisky (NZ) are pioneering a new world of whisky. Manuka Wood; a flavour native to them, yet unfamiliar to us, intrigued and inspired in equal measure. Through the shared language of whisky, good folk and smoke, we found kindred spirits. And flavours that we knew would blend beautifully with Scotch. The result is a smoky and herbal Blended World Whisky, that celebrates ever-expanding horizons of flavour.
METHOD
69% Grain \ 31% Malt
Taking a smoked malt from New Zealand that used manuka wood (dense and resinous) to smoke the barley gives it an amazing sandalwood and clove quality.
Blended that with a beautiful lowland single grain that has tons of vanilla and biscuit qualities. The grain accentuates the sweetness and smoke from the malt, and imbues a smoothness to the whisky.
Bottled at a high 51% ABV to maintain mouthfeel and viscosity.
