OUR BLENDING PROCESS
We start each blend by formulating an idea of the desired finished product and then we begin to screen through whiskies from different distilleries, searching for whiskies that will help us create the final product.
We start each blend by formulating an idea of the desired finished product and then we begin to screen through whiskies from different distilleries, searching for whiskies that will help us create the final product.
Once we have determined which whiskies we would like to use, we screen through different lots of the same product, searching for the ideal lot for our blend. Sourcing whiskies from different distilleries enables us to create a product that is truly complex and unique.
To create the specific blend ratios, we blend multiple lab samples to conduct blind side-by-side sensory analyses. The “winner”of each sensory analysis is moved onto the next round of blended samples. This process continues until the blended lab samples are barely indistinguishable. At that point, a final blend is selected and we are ready to scale the process. This lab blend process enables us to have extreme control over the final flavor, leading to a whiskey that we are proud of with layers of flavor and is interesting to drink.
Final blends are scaled up using weight and large stainless steel totes. Each barrel is screened before the scaled up blending takes place to ensure consistency. We use weight and density tables to calculate volume that allow us to scale our precise lab blend to produce thousands of bottles consistent with our final selected lab bend.
This blending process is followed to create a unique and layered product, where we highlight the best qualities from the component whiskies used in the blend.
