Odyssey - Archive Auction

The Whiskymaker’s Editions is a series of one-off releases showcasing the sense of adventure of our whiskymaker.  Each Edition is an exceptional diversion from The Lakes sherry-led house style; an expression of creative freedom, the product of a playground where instinct, experience and inspiration roam free.

Taking you on a voyage of discovery through different styles of whiskymaking, Odyssey is the second of two exclusive limited-edition single malt whiskies from The Lakes Distillery, in partnership with Selfridges.

Odyssey explores the complexity of the whisky journey. Faced with the challenge of bringing unexpected elements together through blending, components traditionally thought of as difficult to combine were treated as pieces in a puzzle.

Rich, rustic and dark, Odyssey is designed and shaped until its journey’s end where forest fruits sit on a sherry core, with European oak leading the way.
