Johnnie Walker’s Tasty New Ads!

September 11, 2012 by Gary Leave a Comment

The New Johnnie Walker Imagery

The New Johnnie Walker Imagery

Johnnie Walker is launching a stunning new global advertising campaign entitled ‘Where Flavour Is King’.

It focuses on the array of rich and intense flavours that are found in each blend of Johnnie Walker whisky.

The unique flavour production and craft of blending, which is at the heart of Johnnie Walker is reflected in the collection of campaign images.

In it, the viewer is transported to a mysterious and evocative world, featuring giant fruit smashers, towers of spices, honey cauldrons and fire-breathers.

And if you’re curious, a short film about the making of the images can be found here.

Lagavulin Unveils Limited Edition Bottle For Islay Jazz Festival

September 11, 2012 by Gary Leave a Comment

The Lagavulin Jazz Bottling 2012

The Lagavulin Jazz Bottling 2012

Following last year’s exceptionally well-received release, a special limited-edition bottling of Lagavulin Single Malt Scotch Whisky will be on sale to Festival ticket holders during the 2012 Lagavulin Islay Jazz Festival (which runs from 14th. – 16th. September.)

The bottling, which like last year’s release carries a jazz motif on its neck label, is an edition of 624 bottles, sourced from a single Refill Sherry Butt (No. 1894) filled on 7th May 1997.

It is bottled at a natural cask strength of 54.5% ABV, and priced at £85.

The main label carries the signature of warehouseman Iain McArthur, who has worked at Port Ellen, Caol Ila and Lagavulin for 42 years.

Any bottles not sold during the Festival will remain on sale, but available only to personal shoppers at the Distillery.

A'bunadh Batch 40

A'bunadh Batch 40
Country: Scotland   Region: 
Age:    Strength: 
Summary: Aberlour A'bunadh Batch 40 single malt is a natural cask strength Scotch. Taken directly from specially selected sherry casks it is bottled as simply as possible without the use of modern filtering methods or the addition of water.  Aberlour  Aberlour Distillery was founded in 1826 in the town of Aberlour in Scotland’s Speyside whisky region and is situated on the northern edge of Ben Rinnes mountain which accumulates snow and rainwater across its peaty moors and supplies cold, soft spring water to the distillery. Around a half of the spirit produced from Aberlour’s four copper stills is destined for single malts whilst much of the rest contributes to the Chivas brands of blended scotch. Aberlour malt whisky is matured in ex-sherry and ex-bourbon casks and Aberlour A’bunadh single malt whisky has  matured solely in sherry casks. Aberlour Distillery has a visitor centre offering a distillery tour and is an established participant in the popular Spirit of Speyside Whisky Festival.  Tasting Notes Nose: Aromas of mixed spices, praline and spiced orange harmonising with rich, deep notes of Oloroso sherry Palate: Orange, black cherries, dried fruit and ginger spiked with dark bitter chocolate and enriched with sherry and oak. Full bodied and creamy Finish: Robust and intense with bitter-sweet notes of exotic spices, dark chocolate and oak

Rekorderlig Cider - Touch Your Beautiful Side

Rekorderlig Cider - Touch Your Beautiful Side

It’s nice to be dependable, decent and clever isn’t it?
Well, the Swedish have a word for it, Rekorderlig.
Which is amazing because Rekorderlig is also the name of a cider, a Swedish cider.

Founded in 1999, Rekorderlig is still brewed in Vimmerby by the same family who are now into their fourth generation.
Rekorderlig is a clever mix of Apple and Pear wine, pure spring water and all decently combined in a way that only the dependable Swedish can do.

Beautiful.

Many people aspire to the ways of Rekorderlig, their beautiful Swedish side.

They share the beauty on Facebook, tweet clever thoughts on Twitter and are decent to their Grannies.

So, if you’re looking for the path to your Swedish side, they’ve done all the hard work for you.

The answer, in the form of liquid enlightenment, can be found in supermarkets and bars here in the UK. Easy to find, just look for the tempting Rekorderlig cider bottle and the variety of amazing flavours it comes in. Finding all the different ones is a joy in itself (there are eight by the way.)

So, if you feel the need for crisp Apple or Pear, juicy Wild Berries, fruity Mango and Raspberry, zesty Strawberry and Lime, spicy Orange and Ginger, rich Apple and Blackcurrant or warming Winter Cider, then Rekorderlig can satisfy your taste buds.

All you have to do then is enjoy it.

Now that is beautiful.
