Park Row, the London restaurant created by DC Comics, created a Scotch whisky inspired by the story of Batman. The Inishtree Speyside Single Malt from Imperial, a distillery that closed its doors in 2013. The whisky was placed in a single refill Bourbon barrel in 1993 and bottled years later, in 2019, by Specialty Drinks.
The whisky gets its name from the fictional town of Inishtree and in the Batman comics, this is the home of Bruce Wayne. There are just 145 bottles of the Inishtree Speyside Single Malt available and it promises to be a sought-after addition to the collections of superhero fans.
The whisky is said to have notes of sugared almonds, biscuits, lemon curd and meadow flowers, plus sweet cream, buttermints and lemon zest on the palate.
