Little Brown Dog Wee Mongrel 22 Year Old Batch 4 Oloroso & 1st Fill PX Matured Blended Scotch Whisky (2025) 70cl
1 of 497 bottles produced
The youngest whisky in this blend is 22 Years of age. Some of it is more than 22.
Our single casks are Little Brown Dogs, mix them, you get a Wee Mongrel.
It was the name of our first blended whisky, the whisky that put us on the radar of many whisky aficionados.
It’s now probably the release that causes us the greatest stress, has the greatest level of expectation and we take that seriously. Yes, believe it or not, we actually do take some things seriously.
It was never intended to be this way, but our Wee Mongrel had to be ~20 years old, ex Edrington stock and fully sherry matured.
Batch Four is exactly this. Aged 22 years minimum, fully sherry cask matured, refill oloroso butt and 1st fill PX hogsheads. For the Wee Mongrel fans, thank you for making our job difficult. If you’ve tried all previous batches, we think this one is most like batch 2. Big sherry whisky but in a good way and with a decent abv to hold up alongside the casks.
We know we say this EVERY time, like a “last ever” Rolling Stones tour, but we really think this is the final batch for the foreseeable future. The stock required to make a blend like this is now very expensive, that might change one day, we hope it does. In the meantime, lets enjoy drinking whisky like this while we can.
Cask strength, natural colour, non chill filtered.
TASTING NOTES
Colour – How we like our tea before you add the milk.
Nose – Soreen malt loaf, bramble jam, old leather.
Palate – Dark chocolate dipped boozy black cherries with toasted hazelnuts.
Finish – Super long, gentle spice, waves of sherry.
