The Glendronach Single #4194 28 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Product Description: Crafted for the discerning whisky connoisseur, the GlenDronach 1993 Single Cask #4194 is an extraordinary expression of heritage and craftsmanship. Distilled in 1993 and matured for an exceptional 28 years in a Pedro Ximénez Puncheon cask, this whisky is a testament to the time-honoured traditions of GlenDronach. Bottled in 2023 without added colour or chill filtration, it offers a deep, complex profile that is rich with the bold, signature characteristics of the distillery's iconic sherry maturation. This rare, single cask release is an exclusive treat, with only 669 bottles produced, making it a true collector’s item. The richness and depth of this whisky come from its extensive maturation, where it has developed a beautifully balanced complexity that reveals layers of tobacco, leather, roasted nuts, and dark fruit. Perfectly suited for those who appreciate a full-bodied and deeply flavourful whisky, this 28-year-old GlenDronach is a sublime representation of one of Scotland’s most revered distilleries. The Maker The GlenDronach distillery, established in 1826 by James Allardice, has been crafting exceptional single malts for nearly two centuries. Nestled in the heart of Speyside, Scotland, The GlenDronach is renowned for producing whisky that embodies the rich history and heritage of the region. The distillery’s hallmark is its use of Spanish Oloroso and Pedro Ximénez sherry casks for maturation, which imbue the whisky with rich, complex flavours and a distinctive character. After a period of closure, The GlenDronach was revived in 2008 and has continued to produce some of the finest single malts on the market. The distillery remains committed to traditional methods, such as direct-fired stills and floor malting, which impart a unique depth and complexity to each expression. The Distillery Founded in 1825, The GlenDronach distillery stands as a proud symbol of Speyside’s whisky-making tradition. Renowned for its signature use of sherry casks, GlenDronach whiskies are known for their richness and depth, with a signature sweetness derived from the Oloroso and Pedro Ximénez casks used for maturation. The distillery’s revival in 2008 marked the beginning of a new era, embracing the finest traditions while continually innovating to meet the modern whisky connoisseur’s expectations. The GlenDronach's commitment to quality and craftsmanship shines through in each expression. The distillery’s use of traditional aging techniques, along with its rich, fertile land and dedicated team, ensures that every bottle encapsulates the essence of Speyside whisky-making. The GlenDronach continues to be a leader in the industry, producing whiskies celebrated for their depth, character, and luxurious profiles. Tasting Notes: Nose Rich, Spicy, and Aromatic Inviting, with rich tobacco and leather polish notes, complemented by zesty orange peel, roasted hazelnuts, and a hint of milk chocolate. The light herbal undertones add further complexity, making each inhale more intriguing. Palate Full-bodied, Nutty, and Fruity The whisky reveals its depth with flavours of smooth leather and tobacco, intertwined with vibrant citrus zest. Dried blueberries, roasted walnuts, and raisins add a beautiful sweetness, while the whisky’s overall mouthfeel remains luxurious and full-bodied. Finish Long, Elegant, and Lingering Long and satisfying, slowly fading with tobacco aromas and a final touch of warmth that lingers beautifully on the palate. The subtle complexity of dried fruits and spice make for an unforgettable conclusion.

Lagavulin 8 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

An unusual age statement is inspired by Alfred Barnard's visit to the distillery in 1887 which became part of his book, “The Whisky Distilleries of the United Kingdom”. According to Diageo Director of Whisky Outreach, Dr. Nick Morgan, “At the end of the tour, he was given a taste of the whisky…he tasted an eight-year-old Lagavulin, which, of course, remember at the time was actually quite old…whiskies were considered to be venerable once they got around six years old in the 19th Century,” Morgan said in an interview with www.whiskycast.com. “He declared that whisky to be exceptionally fine, so our mission with this bottling was to find an exceptionally fine eight-year-old liquid which we thought Barnard would quite like if he were to be back here tasting it today.” Tasting note: Very pale straw gold showing considerable legs. Powerful and complex aromas include cocoa, sea spray, white pepper, dilute Elastoplast and lanolin followed by hints of citrus zest. Several minutes air contact accents the latent malt as well as dark chocolate. Concentrated but also surprisingly soft; almost creamy with grassy malt and a juicy vanilla, kelp and peppermint finish that goes long into the aftertaste. A departure from the 16, but terrific young malt. 48% Alc./Vol.

Ardbeg Heavy Vapours Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Ardbeg's latest annual offering comes with a curious title that's due to a production modification. Head of Whisky Creation, Bill Lumsden removed the purifier, which typically catches the heaviest vapours from the distillation process. The purifier is also responsible for Ardbeg’s balance between extreme peat and floral fruitiness. The resulting whisky is "all peat". In fact, Ardbeg says that it's their most full-blown expression ever with an intensity of flavour that's unmatched. A spokesperson for the brand describes the flavour profile as, "Defined by a distinctive pungent earthiness, aromatic clouds of dark chocolate, a billow of aniseed and cinnamon, and a lingering tang of sharp peppermint." Dramface.com add "According to an interview Lumsden participated in for WhiskyCast, the experiment which gave birth to this year’s release was conducted 12 years ago. Even allowing for time of year and the time taken to dump casks, blend, package and distribute, it’s safe to assume this bottling is at least 11 years old, given that Lumsden claims the experiment was only ever conducted in one batch." We've just received our allocation. The whisky's unusual conception is brought to life with accompanying graphics created by celebrated comic artist and illustrator, Dilraj Mann. The nose is slightly reticent while the flavour profile leans towards smokey dark chocolate, oily malt, chimney soot and white pepper followed by a dried herbal quality. The aftertaste is ashy, drying, medium long and vaguely fruity in a mezcal kind of way. Like last year's Ardbeg Day release (Ardcore), Heavy Vapours is not quite as intense or complex as anticipated, although it does taste slightly more mature and feels like the texture is amplified, particularly at the finish where cured meats and a salt'n'pepper tang recall middle-weight Caol Ilas. In a word, more elegant than "extreme". 46% Alc./Vol. Non chill filtered.

Johnnie Walker Blue Label Ice Chalet Blended Scotch Whisky

Product Information: Johnnie Walker x Perfect Moment. It's luxury scotch meets luxury fashion. Together they've crafted a must-have 'aprés-ski' accessory. In partnership with luxury ski & lifestyle brand Perfect Moment, this unique bottle comes adorned in a limited-edition luxury bottle bag that reverses into a cross-body bag, fearlessly designed to push boundaries and resonate strongly with fashion-forward luxury consumers; it doubles as a crossbody accessory once the bottle is removed. Master Blender Emma Walker began creating this special blend by going through the archives and hand-selecting the rarest of single malts from the most northern distilleries in Scotland, including famed distillery Brora and the highest distillery in Scotland, Dalwhinnie. These single malts were carefully laid during Scotland’s coldest winters, when the critical first phase of maturation is mellowed, allowing more of the beautiful distillery character to come through. Only 1 in 10,000 casks succeeds in bringing this character to life – velvety-smooth with notes of salted honey, cacao and soft malt characters. Maker: Johnnie Walker's story began in 1820 when a determined young man named John opened a grocery shop in Kilmarnock, Scotland, after his father's death. Facing challenges, John had a knack for business and a talent for whisky. Recognizing the inconsistency of single malts, he began blending them, creating a whisky that delivered a reliable taste. His blended whisky quickly gained popularity. When John passed away in 1857, he left a thriving business to his son, Alexander. With the arrival of the railway and Britain on the cusp of the Industrial Revolution, Alexander seized opportunities for growth. Things really kicked up a notch from there. In 1867, he introduced the iconic slanted label and square bottle, making the brand stand out. By 1908, with the help of illustrator Tom Browne, the Striding Man became the brand's symbol, leading to the creation of Johnnie Walker Red Label and Black Label. By 1920, Johnnie Walker whisky was available in 120 countries, becoming a global cultural icon, celebrated by statesmen, socialites, and artists alike. In 1934, the brand received a Royal Warrant from King George V. Today, Johnnie Walker is the world's largest Scotch whisky brand, embodying a spirit of progress and optimism with its famous slogan. The legacy of pushing boundaries in whisky continues to thrive. Philosophy: Rare casks, rare craft and rare characters combine to create a vibrant Scotch Whisky with rolling waves of flavour and an unrivalled depth of character. Made with unparalleled reserves, spanning the ‘four corners’ of Scotch–Lowland (Glenkinchie), Speyside (Cardhu), Islay (Caol Ila) and Highland (Clynelish). Only one in 10,000 casks – including some from long-closed ‘ghost’ distilleries – are hand-selected to craft this exceptionally smooth whisky. Johnnie Walker have honed in on their craft, a precision process that respects the many elements shaping a Scotch Whisky’s final flavour and character, including the type of grains and yeast used, the shape of the still, and the length of time it’s matured in the cask. Nose - Lightly Smoked, Cereal Grains, Old Leather Rolling waves of subtle pepper and spices. Pungent, integrated slightly oily and smoked. Dusty cereal grains, desiccated coconut, leather, hessian sack and freshly cut old mahogany wood. Palate - Honeyed Malt, Fruity Palate, Vanilla Oak Initial burst of salty smoked seaweed leads to an elegant lightly honeyed malty, dried fruity palate with vanillered wood, liquorice, brazil nuts and the merest hint of cinnamon spice. Finish - Hard Candy, Butter Fruit Buns, Smoky Finish Salty, smoked flavours return on the long finish with boiled sweet (hard candy) fruit and buttered fruit buns. A luxuriously long, smoky finish.
