Ledaig / 19 Year Old Single Malt
Ledaig / 19 Year Old Single Malt

£125.00
Country: Scotland
Region: Island
Age: 
Strength: 51.%
70cl

Summary: Country/Region: Scotland/Isle of Mull.
Unit: 70cl
ABV: 51%

Two limited-edition malts, Ledaig 19 Years Old and Tobermory 21 Years Old, have been released by Distell's Tobermory Distillery.
This Ledaig 19 Year Old is some of the first spirit distilled when peated single malt production commenced at Tobermory distillery in the late 1990s.
Peat-dried malted barley was married with naturally peat-infused water from a lochan high in the mountains above the village. The spirit was then matured in superior oak wood casks before being finished in Marsala wine casks.
Tasting Notes: Beautiful rich single malt with a mouth-filling sweetness of berries and dark chocolate with a full peat explosion of black pepper and bonfire smoke.

Summary: Country/Region: Scotland/Highlands.
ABV: 41%
Unit: 70cl
We’re delighted to announce the limited edition release of our most exclusive bottling to date; the balanced and full-bodied 35-year-old second release. The liquid is being introduced with just 670 bottles available globally.
Laid to rest for over three decades in American oak ex-bourbon barrels, the casks have been carefully chosen by distillery manager Gordon Bruce and master blender Stuart Harvey.
Giving rise to a unique dram that still retains its youthful edge; the 35-year-old has top notes of lemon curd, green apples and cut flowers followed by honey sweetness, creamy toffee, leather and spice. Warming wood smoke makes for a fragrant and rich aroma.
On the palate, it is oily and full-bodied with caramel honey and fresh vanilla complementing the subtle smokiness and warm spice.
Brand manager Stephanie Bridge commented: “The 35-year-old second release is a special expression for anCnoc, having been matured for more than three decades in our traditional dunnage warehouses which still retain their earthen floors and add so much to the quality and character of this special liquid The second release has lain in ex-bourbon barrels, offering fans something slightly different to the original expression. Our limited edition is a testament to the 35-year-old’s popularity with whisky lovers worldwide and we’re confident that this unique release will entice drinkers to add it to their collections.”
Colour: Baltic amber.
Nose: Top notes of lemon curd, green apples and cut flowers are followed by a heavier honey sweetness, creamy toffee, leather, spices and a pleasant touch of warming wood smoke, making for a fragrant and rich nose.
Taste: Oily and full-bodied. Honey and fresh vanilla sit firmly on the palate, with spiciness and, once again, slight smokiness woven in. The finish is long and rewarding, with hints of ground spices and caramel sweetness.
Non chill-filtered, natural colour.

Compass Box / Flaming Heart Fifteenth Anniversary Release
Compass Box / Flaming Heart Fifteenth Anniversary Release

£105.00
Country: Scotland
Region: IslayHighlands
Age: 
Strength: 48.9%

Summary: Country/Region: Scotland/Islay/Highlands.
ABV: 48.9%
Since we launched the Compass Box Whisky Company back in 2000, we have always aimed to experiment, to innovate and to explore where others wouldn’t in the world of Scotch. No whisky is a greater example of this ambition than Flaming Heart.
First released in 2006, Flaming Heart was the first whisky to combine the rich, complex spice of Scotch aged in new French oak with the evocative peat-fired smoke of Islay malt. It created a genre-defying style that was smouldering, spicy, complex – and so popular that we re-released it three more times in the years that followed.
In this our fifteenth year, we felt compelled to revisit this unique style one more time. Our anniversary release is a huge, layered, long-lasting mouthful of a whisky to enjoy late into the night. Brooding, indulgent and older than ever before, this is a whisky born of oak, smoke and fire – with a big heart all of its own.
John Glaser, Whiskymaker.
Availability: A limited edition of 12,060 bottles. Bottled in August 2016.
Flavour Descriptors: A unique interplay between spice, sweet and smoke characteristics. Sweet fruits and wood-smoke on the nose. Fat and full-bodied on the palate with a spicy sweetness and a brooding complexity that is rich, sweet and addictively decadent.
Ratings: 96.5 Points and Scotch Vatted Malt of the Year / Jim Murray's 2017 Whisky Bible.
