Meticulously Mesmerising
Cask No: 35.381
New Whisky Arrivals are all part of the joy of an SMWS Membership!
Regardless of whether you’re treating yourself or as a gift, there’s nothing better than hearing about the latest offerings from The Society.
New drams are very regular indeed and are always of limited supply so it’s best to get your order in early to avoid disappointing those taste buds!
Below is one new particular dram of note – especially as it has flavours of Christmas spices – Yes, that time of the year is fast approaching!
Spicy & Sweet Qty left: 38

The subtle scent of a nutty sponge cake moistened in a light lemony syrup, topped with pastry cream, walnuts and cinnamon combined with a glass of orange muscat, wafted through the air to mesmerising effect.
The taste was that of a Waldorf salad made with rocket for a peppery bite and topped with toasted walnuts and juicy grapes enveloped in a creamy lemony dressing. Following reduction, we found Christmas spices, stem ginger, walnut cake and a sweet espresso on the nose.
On the palate, marzipan and apple tart with caramel sauce. Following 27 years in an ex-bourbon hogshead, we transferred this whisky into a second fill oloroso hogshead.
