The Glendronach 15 Year Old Single Malt Whisky (New Release)
Product Description The GlenDronach 15 Year Old Single Malt Whisky returns as part of the distillery’s core range, reviving the iconic Revival expression that was discontinued in 2015. This 15-year-old whisky is a testament to The GlenDronach’s signature style, crafted from the finest Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso sherry casks sourced from the sun-soaked region of Andalucía, Spain. Matured for 15 years in the traditional dunnage warehouses of the distillery, this expression exudes deep, rich flavours, showcasing the influence of the sherry casks that define the distillery’s character. Bottled at 46% ABV and non-chill filtered, The GlenDronach 15 Year Old boasts a beautifully natural colour, retaining the full depth and complexity developed over time. The whisky presents an intoxicating aroma of maraschino cherry, ripe bramble, and dark chocolate mint, with hints of orange bitters and walnut liqueur. On the palate, the whisky offers honey-glazed apricot, ripe fig, black cherry, and muscovado sugar, leading to a crescendo of flavour that is rounded with richness and a memorable finish. The GlenDronach 15 Year Old is a luxurious and complex expression, offering a bold, indulgent drinking experience that is the epitome of Highland whisky craftsmanship. Cask Type: Oloroso & Pedro Ximénez Sherry Casks Ageing: 15 years in sherry casks, non-chill filtered Best served neat or with a small splash of water to open up the flavours.

The Dalmore 40 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky
This 40 year old Highland single malt began its life at The Dalmore distillery in American white oak ex-bourbon casks before being transferred to 30 year old Gonzalez Byass Matusalem oloroso sherry butts. After seven years in these rare casks, the liquid was given its final flourish in first-fill American white oak bourbon casks prior to bottling in 2017. Rich Colombian coffee mingles with sweet sultanas, dates and marmalade on the nose. The palate reveals gingerbread, molasses, maple syrup and brioche dipped in Manuka honey. The finish has delicious blood orange, over ripe Bramley apples, liquorice and notes of desiccated coconut.
Glenmorangie The Lasanta 12 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky ( )
Lasanta begins with Glenmorangie's deliciously delicate and fruity spirit, which is matured for 10 years in American white oak ex-bourbon casks before being extra-matured for 2 years in Spanish Sherry casks. Lasanta is Gaelic for warmth and passion, a reflection of the sweet and spicy flavours of raisin, honeycomb, spiced orange, and chocolate-covered hazelnuts.

Thirty years ago, Glenmorangie innovated in the art of extra-maturation, transferring spirit first matured in ex-bourbon casks, into ex-wine casks so that it could gain further layers of flavour.

This whisky develops its rich, dessert-like flavours of white chocolate, cr me de caramel, with hints of coconut. Almond croissants flecked with ginger and honey.

Ardbeg Uigeadail Single Malt Scotch Whisky
“The elemental opposite of the sophisticated Lord of the Isles.” Perched on a wave washed, rocky headland, the Ardbeg distillery was founded in 1815 by the MacDougalls of Ardbeg. The distilleries scattered white washed buildings are reminiscent of a Dutch settlement and add to the dramatic coastal landscape. Ardbeg has had a chequered history and in recent times had been closed down for many years. Glenmorangie acquired Ardbeg in 1997 and has set about restoring the distillery to its former glory. First launched in 2003, “Uigeadail” (the loch from which all Ardbeg water flows) this cask strength, heavily peated Ardbeg is produced from a mix of bourbon casks and older sherry casks. The combination gives this whisky a velvety texture, with a sweet and smokey finish. Tasting notes: Bright gold appearance. Big, sweet sherry influenced nose offers dried apricot and marmalade scents over menthol and sweet cedar smoke. Some ripe green apple notes emerge with time in the glass. The palate is off dry with a rich, dark chocolate entry becoming heavier and fudge-like with orange chocolate, sweet cereal and the peat continually reinventing itself - at once dry and sooty, then tarry and finally kippery on the finish. Excellent balance at cask strength. Boiled lolly and spice aftertaste with a subtle spearmint fade. Latest batch tasted October 2010.
Ardbeg An Oa Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Named after a peninsula on the coast of Islay, Bill Lumsden has mixed it up with this release employing a combination of casks: Pedro Ximénez, charred virgin oak and ex-bourbon. An Oa (pronounced “an oh”) will become a part of the core range joining the 10 year old, Uigeadail, and Corryvreckan. Lumsden describes the whisky as "...smoky, sweet and rounded, with unusually, grilled artichokes in the finish." Tasting note: Bright gold. As always deceptively complex, developing with sherried oak aromas, lanolin, sooty vanilla and later, dark chocolate and suggestions of smoldering green pine. Entry is assertively salty, kippery, peppery. Mid palate is oily, medium dry, offering sherried richness along with piney juniper, over-baked sponge cake, black tea and hints of smoked meats at the finish. No shortage of peat, but loses some momentum in the final stages. Non chill filtered. 46.6% Alc./Vol.
Glenfiddich Reserva Rum Finish 21 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky
(This whisky has recently been repackaged as a standard 21 Year Old as opposed to its previous incarnation as 'Gran Reserva'). Glenfiddich resurrects the lost tradition of maturing whisky in rum casks with this Glenfiddich 21 Year Old single malt Scotch whisky. Rum distillers from Sancti Spiritus, near the Sierra del Escambray in the heart of Cuba, worked to develop this unique Cuban rum finish. Casks of Cuban rum are decanted at the distillery in Scotland and then filled with 21 Year Old Glenfiddich to absorb the unique character lingering in the wood. The result is the unmistakable Glenfiddich flavour revealed through a new and vibrant overtone.
Glenmorangie A Tale of Winter Limited Edition Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Released in the UK in 2021, 'A Tale Of Winter' is the latest annual limited edition from Glenmorangie to arrive in Australia, coinciding with the approaching Winter season and World Whisky Day (Saturday the 21st of May). Like its predecessor, "A Tale of Cake', this is a concept whisky from the inside out. Bill Lumsden has used 13 year old (plus) x-Bourbon matured single malt and finished it in Sicilian Marsala wine casks. The flavours of Marsala typically hint at apricot, vanilla and brown sugar and range from dry to very sweet. Evidently Lumsden felt these casks were perfectly suited to provide the profile he was looking for. The marketing team have responded with an eye catching knit-sweater-patterned presentation to evoke the feeling of the season. As for the whisky itself, it kind of reminds you of mulled wine or spiced rum. The colour is deeper and the nose heavier and richer than most 'Morangies to date; Festive spices feature, with cinnamon and nutmeg over ginger snaps and hints of orange cake and boiled confectionary. The palate is more full bodied again with a deliberate spice theme: Ginger beer, fruit cake and persistent warming spices ricochet around the drying finish. Ultimately, it's a whisky that achieves exactly what the label suggests - a genuine Winter warmer. Besides sipping straight, Glenmorangie recommend it in a Winter Old Fashioned (recipe below). 46% Alc./Vol. Non chill filtered.
GlenAllachie 8 Year Old Koval Rye Finish Single Malt Scotch Whisky
The GlenAllachie Distillery was designed in 1967 by William-Delme Evans and built by Mackinlay McPherson. This was the fourth distillery designed by Evans and was created to be almost full gravity fed to run on reduced energy. The first production run for the distillery was in February 1968 and began with just two stills, further increasing to four after just six months. Bottled at 48%, this golden malt was first matured in the finest American Barrels with an additional maturation period in Organic Rye Quarter Casks from Chicago’s Koval Distillery. The wood to liquid ratio in these second-fill casks is greater, meaning the signature Rye spiciness has a greater impact on the spirit. Rich Gold in colour with rich cinnamon and nutmeg spices and waves of honey and butterscotch on the nose lead to flavours of sweet roasted spices enriched with honey, butterscotch, cooking apples and cloves.
