Tasting Notes

How It's Made

Fun Facts

Product Details

Nose: Rich aromas of baking spices, particularly cinnamon and nutmeg, mingle with sweet woodiness. Hints of vanilla bean and honey emerge, followed by subtle notes of cedar and blackberry. A touch of lychee tea adds an intriguing complexity.

Palate: Thick and creamy texture, reminiscent of caramel sauce. Initial warmth carries flavors of cinnamon and nutmeg. Mid-palate reveals burnt marshmallow sweetness balanced by savory mint tea. Graham cracker notes develop, accompanied by a subtle molasses sweetness.

Finish: Long and evolving. Clove spiciness builds, complemented by lingering graham cracker sweetness. A distinct note of brandied cherry emerges, coated with crystallizing sugar. The finish tapers off with a pleasant oakiness and a hint of maple candy.

Found North Batch 011 is a meticulously crafted blend of nine component whiskies, ranging from 18 to 24 years old, including six corn whiskies, two ryes, and a new wood cask of Peregrine First Flight. The master blenders at Found North carefully layer multiple expressions of wood sugar, baking spice, and vanillin character by using corn components aged in both new wood and ex-bourbon casks, alongside rye whiskies, to create a harmonious and vibrant flavor profile reminiscent of their iconic Batch 002.

Despite being labeled as an 18-year-old whisky, Found North Batch 011 actually contains whiskies aged up to 24 years, creating a complex blend that spans nearly a quarter-century of maturation.

The blend includes a special component called "Peregrine First Flight" aged in new wood, which acts as a key flavor cornerstone and helps recreate the beloved profile of their earlier Batch 002 release.

Found North recommends a precise "Manager's Proof" for optimal enjoyment: adding exactly 2ml of water to a 50ml pour unlocks hidden notes of maple and marshmallow richness in both aroma and taste.
