Batches : Bimber Oloroso Small Batch

Distilleries often release whisky in batches, the same name but subtly different recipes, ABVs, maturation periods etc. In this occasional series I'm going to review a number of different Batches in my Side-by-side format to see if I can detect any differences, does each batch get better or are they to all intents and purposes the same?



Whilst they strive towards a core bottling @BimberLondon continue to release single casks and small batches of ex-bourbon, peated, re-charred oak and Oloroso casks. Let's see how the Oloroso small batches compare.
