The Notch Whisky - Tasting Flight
Three Rare Island Single Malts • One Extraordinary Journey
Experience the full depth, character, and artistry of Notch Nantucket Island Single Malt Whisky with this exclusive three-expression tasting set. A premium bundle rarely seen off the island and crafted in extremely limited quantities. This curated trio showcases the complete spectrum of our malt, fermentation philosophy, distillation methods, and the undeniable influence of Nantucket’s maritime climate.
What’s Inside the Set
Notch 8 Year – Cask-Finished Innovation
A vibrant demonstration of our finishing program. Matured first in traditional oak, then rested in barrels that previously held wine, hand-scraped and re-toasted to awaken new layers of flavor. This expression reveals how finishing can elevate malt character with subtle fruit, spice, and toasted depth.
Notch 12 Year – The Pure Island Expression
The heart of who we are. Unadorned, uncompromised, and shaped entirely by our malt, fermentation strategy, distillation techniques, and Nantucket’s cool, ocean-tempered aging environment. A benchmark single malt that captures the true DNA of Notch.
Notch 15 Year – Sherry-Kissed Maturation
A rare, long-aged whisky finished in Spanish sherry casks that bring richness, depth, and an elegant sweetness to the mature island character beneath. A luxurious balance of structure, complexity, and time.
This flight offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to explore three distinct interpretations of the same core whisky — each shaped by different cask influences and aging paths. Together, they tell the story of how malt, method, and maritime climate evolve across age and finish.
Perfect for collectors, connoisseurs, or anyone seeking a guided exploration of one of America’s most distinctive single malts.
Notch whiskies are normally available only on Nantucket, with tiny allocations reserved for a select few retailers each year. This tasting bundle is a rare chance to own and experience all three current expressions beyond our shores.
Award-Winning
Triple Eight Distillery has been recognized as an industry leader in spirit production and awarded top honors in national and international competitions.
The Notch Story
As one of the oldest single malt whisky distilleries in the United States, making among the first single malts in the nation post-Prohibition, Triple Eight Distillery is leading the way toward a new category of American Single Malt Whisky. Tucked away at the famed Cisco Brewers property on Nantucket, Triple Eight has long dedicated itself to making fine spirits. In 2000, Triple Eight began distilling The Notch, using the collective wisdom of their brewers, distillers, and vintners, and guided by renowned experts George McClements and John Ramsay in the early years in making the final blend.
What makes The Notch so special?
The short answer is the atmosphere. The natural beauty of the island, what makes Nantucket magical—the clear blue skies, the intoxicating scents of Rosa rugosa, honeysuckle, and bayberry mingling with the salt air, a damp fog rolling in—is embodied in The Notch.
