THE NAME

Understanding The Perfect Fifth's unique approach to whisky selection is best handled with an analogy drawn from musical theory. The perfect fifth is the most vital interval in tonal harmony, resulting in an incredible sound with perfect equilibrium, and underpinning the creation of the most exalted music in history.

Perfect equilibrium can also be found in taste, this results when all five tastes that a person can sense become flawlessly aligned. As Scotch whisky matures, it draws flavor from the wood, developing a flavor profile unique to itself. Seldom do the five tastes develop with true harmony and complexity. When selecting casks of such high quality, it is this perfect fifth that we are seeking; that perfect equilibrium of flavor notes, which are so often sought after but so rarely found.
