In it he described an old method of drinking a mix of whiskies from a cask that is constantly topped up and never emptied. He wrote:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003e“thus you establish what is called, in the case of sherry, a ‘solera’ in which the constantly changing character of the old constituents doctors the new accessions, and in which these, in turn, freshen and strengthen the old.”\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eLoch Fyne’s The Living Cask takes its inspiration from this long abandoned practice.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-content-type=\"html\" data-appearance=\"default\" data-element=\"main\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-content-type=\"html\" data-appearance=\"default\" data-element=\"main\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"section-wrap active\" id=\"description\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Loch Fyne The Living Cask Batch 10 Description\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"section-content\" itemprop=\"description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Story So Far...\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhy have one Living Cask, when you can have two? Inspired by our award-winning The Living Cask 1745, we created a second cask of equal quality. To begin, we part filled it with our 1745, which we then topped up with a selection of carefully chosen Highland malts. We christened this The Living Cask ‘Batch 1’. Because of how it was made, stocks were limited, and it soon sold out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom Batch 2 onwards, we've created each release by taking depleted stocks of its predecessor and pouring in additional malts from a variety of regions and distilleries. The Living Cask® will always be an evolution of its Islay origins while every batch builds upon the flavours of the last. Each intriguing expression is a limited release and part of an ongoing series which is as collectable as it is delicious.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Living Cask Batch 10\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBatch 10 has seen the addition of four single malts from Speyside, Highland and Islands. Each malt has been finished in ex-Californian red wine barrels before being added to a percentage of the previous Living Cask Batch 9. Although the Loch Fyne Living Cask has always used a unique process of creating exciting flavours among whisky, the use of ex-wine barrels adds a further level of complexity often avoided by whisky makers. We do like a challenge, however, and with our Master Blender Tom Aitken's guidance we have come up with another cracker, weaving together a variety of whisky styles with the influence of the wine barrels. A truly unique expression of Loch Fyne Living Cask.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStart your remarkable collection now, and remember, no two batches are ever the same. (Nor are three, four or… you get the picture...!)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note: Our Loch Fyne Whiskies products are presented in handmade glass bottles.
