One of the very best examples from this long gone distillery. Lochside sadly closed for good in 1992. This is a bit of a 'Sherry Bomb'. Lots of dried fruits, spice and praline flavours...
A very early edition of Locke's Single Malt, this came before an age statement of 8 years old was released and also has the confusing 'pure pot still' text...
Named after the 50th anniversary of the Shannon Boat Rally in Ireland. This whiskey was hand selected by the Irish Whiskey Society. Distilled in February 200 and bottled in July 2010...
A wonderful mix of pungent peat smoke, deliciously fresh fruit, vanilla and dried fruit flavours. This really has a bit of everything, a complex and multifacted dram...
The real deal Macallan in the classic sherried style. If only all of them were this good! Lots of body, with rich, dried fruits, malt and delicate spices...
A well-aged Macallan single malt that has been matured in both American oak Sherry casks and European oak Sherry casks. Aged for at least 18 years the American oak brings in flavours of vanilla, coconut and honey whilst the European oak adds more tannin, spice and clove notes. A hefty single malt th..
The iconic and robust Macallan 18 Year Old Sherry Cask 2022 edition. This expression has spent 18 years maturing in sherry seasoned oak casks from Jerez to create this unique and rich dram. Bottled at 43% abv, the expression boasts a stunning natural light mahogany colour...
This 2022 edition offers the combination of ex-Bourbon barrels and ex-Sherry barrels in American oak to reveal a rich and full character with a beautiful aromatic palette. Notes of grapefruit develop and combine harmoniously with vanilla and the characteristic spices and wood of Macallan. ..
An intriguing single malt that features an array of different cask types throughout its maturation process. This Edition Number Five features first-fill bourbon barrels, second-fill hogsheads/butts, first-fill Tevasa Cooperage hogsheads/butts, first-fill Vasyma Cooperage butts, and first-fill H..
Introducing the stunning second edition in Macallan's limited annual release series. This very special single malt draws its inspiration from Ethiopian Arabica bean. Ethiopia is claimed to be the birthplace of coffee as the Arabica bean was the first species of coffee to be cultivated. On the pal..
Made in the classic old Macallan style. This is exclusively aged in Oloroso Sherry casks and is simply a fantastic whisky. Very hard to find fault with this, other than the fact that it is quite expensive!..
Made using some very rare spirit that was peated to a higher level of smokiness than normal at Macallan. Around 100 casks were chosen all of which previously held Oloroso Sherry...
Vibrant fruity flavours of pineapple, banana and mango with touches of honey, vanilla, apricot and charred oak. Macduff is occasionally known as Glen Deveron and has also been bottled under the Singleton brand name...
A fantastic classic Arran Single Malt with a charming puff of peat smoke. This 10 year old release of Machrie Moor is bottled in very small quantities every year. Fully matured in 1st fill Bourbon Casks for 10 years and bottled at 46%, without chill filtration or added colouring. On the palate, this..
The cask strength version of Arran's peated malt whisky. This packs a real punch with the alcohol and peat smoke fighting it out for attention. Powerful stuff!..
Distilled at the Cooley Distillery for Scottish bottlers Ian Macleod & Co. Legendary whisky and beer writer Michael Jackson called this a lovely, clean, malty, easily drinkable whiskey. That sumis it up nicely. Not a huge amout of peat with this one, despite what the label says...
A special bottling for the famous old Park Avenue Liquors store on Madison Avenue, New York. This malt was distilled at Cooley in 1992 and bottled in 2006. Very hard to find these days...
Rather confusingly named... it's a malt rather than a pure pot still whiskey from Macleod's. It's bourbon matured and very highly rated by whisky writer Jim Murray, who gives it a score of 91. A nicely honeyed, malty whiskey distilled at the Cooley Distillery...
A unique limited edition whiskey that has been fermented from a mash of oats and malted barley and then triple distilled before being matured in ex-Bourbon barrels. Lots of oaty flavours thanks to the mashbill of 60% oats and 40% malted barley. This whiskey shows how oats and other unconvention..
Single Malt Irish Whiskey enhanced With French Limousin Oak, has been initially matured in ex-Bourbon barrels, imparting flavours of “malt and biscuit”, and in a first for the category, has been part-finished in French Limousin oak for one year to add a “lighter, floral and herbal note”...
Quite oaky and tight with a chewy nature adding spice flavours such as ginger and cinnamon. Nicely sweetened malt flavours add balance and juiciness...
No age statement but very good, especially if you like whiskies with a citrus or orchard fruit flavour profile. A clean, crisp and light whisky that works great as an aperitif...
An incredible independent bottling of Mortlach - entirely matured in refill bourbon barrels. White pepper with grapefruit, gooseberry and ripe banana flavours making a delicious after dinner dram...
An elegant yet richly flavoured bottling of Mortlach. There is a lot to like about this dram; ripe fruity flavours, a hint of spice and rich chocolate characters...
A soft and delicate single malt that was made using 'Lomond Stills' at Miltonduff distillery. The stills were decomissioned in 1981. Quite sweet and spicy with citrus and orchard fruit flavours...
The unique aspect of this independently bottled Cooley malt is that it was matured for a period on the island of Islay off the west coast of Scotland. Islay is famous for its robust, peaty whisky, and this, albeit an Irish, is very much in that tradition. It was put in the bottle by legendary distil..
Another double-distilled Cooley malt from the Murray McDavid/Bruichladdich people. This is a vatting of 10-year-old whiskey from bourbon casks, highlighting the classic peated Cooley distillate. One of the people behind the bottlers is Mark Reynier, who is now distilling his own Irish whiskey in Wat..
Mostly sold out before it even reached the shops, this whiskey from an undisclosed Irish distillery (Bushmills...) was doube distilled and peated, spending 27 years in the cask. Oodles of exotic fruits, marshmallow, aniseed, spice, dark chocolate.....
A very unusual whisky, the only one we have encountered where malt has been distilled via a coffey still (column still). This is light and soft with some delicate smoke, tropcial fruits, honey and bourbon-like vanilla...
