MAKE YOUR OWN BLEND
Create a blend for your own palate
Taste the four Divided Cask finishing styles, experiment with proportion and balance, then record the blend that feels most like yours.
THE EXPERIENCE
From cask comparison to your own recipe
The starting point is the same four finishing styles used in The Divided Cask Series 1. After tasting them individually, you begin combining them in different proportions to find a balance that suits you.
YOUR BLEND
No right answer, only a direction
A little more Port may bring richer fruit. Cognac may add baked-fruit and nutty tones. New American Oak can emphasise vanilla and oak character, while Oloroso Sherry can add dried fruit and depth. The aim is not to reproduce an existing release, but to understand how proportion changes the final blend.
YOUR PERSONALISED BOTTLE
A label made for the person who made the blend
The take-home bottle is personalised with a dedicated House of Five Stills label created for the individual who made the blend. The intention is for it to feel like a proper small House release rather than a handwritten workshop sticker.
The label can carry the guest's name, the name they choose for their blend, the date, the four-cask recipe and the final bottle details. The exact proportions are recorded so the bottle becomes both a keepsake and a permanent record of the recipe.
The example shown is a House of Five Stills design direction for the experience. Final production artwork will be refined before labels are printed.
