{"product_id":"subtle-spirits-echo-malt-whisky","title":"Subtle Spirits Echo Malt Whisky","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhat originated from the same event horizon evolved differently through space and time. Echo \u0026amp; Reverb were derived from the same base blend of single-malt whiskies from three different sources, distilled in Scotland, Virginia \u0026amp; California. Three single malt components were blended: two refill casks (Port and Madeira) containing a mix of 7-year Virginia Distillery Co. and 7-year Speyside single malts, plus an 8-year peated single malt from 10th Street Distillery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe combined blend (~120 gallons) was mar- ried in tank through Fall 2025, then split for finishing. Half was finished in freshly emptied Wild Turkey bourbon barrels to create Echo. The remaining half was divided between the original Port cask and a first-fill Hanzell pinot noir cask, then recombined to create Reverb. All casks were lightly proofed with water and rested for ~3 months prior to final blending and bottling in Spring 2026. Bottled ~ 45-46% a.b.v. - a typical range for Single Malt Scotches - was every bit intentional. It lets the malt do the talking rather than the alcohol without sacrificing any texture or flavor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTasting Notes:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEcho was finished in freshly emptied Wild Turkey bourbon casks, accentuating the notes of honey and tropical fruit. This clearly defined expression is vast and repetitious, creating a rhythmic effect on the flavor with a rich, round texture. Immediately, you are greeted by a beautifully aromatic nose, bright and juicy fruit flavors, subtle hints of incense, and very light smokiness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAROMA\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tropical fruit like lychee, green papaya, and mango are complemented with a rich Manuka honey sweetness, all wrapped up in a baselayer of toasted sandalwood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTASTE\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ripe sultana, burnt marsh- mallow, dark honey, lemon zest, and smoke.
