Spirit Of Speyside Whisky Festival Now On

April 28, 2011 by Gary Leave a Comment

Spirit Of Speyside Whisky Festival

Devotees of the dram and non-whisky drinkers alike will be able to discover even more about the delights of Scotland’s Malt Whisky country this month as the 12th annual Spirit of Speyside Whisky Festival starts.

The five-day festival’s packed programme of over 200 events starts today and runs until the 2nd. May. There is something to suit all levels of interest, from the exclusive three day intensive instruction on offer at the Spirit of Speyside Whisky School to a more light hearted look at the world of whisky with stand up comedian Vladimir McTavish.

Included in this year’s programme is the opportunity to become a Benromach warehouseman for the day, offering enthusiasts a unique opportunity to be initiated into the ultra exclusive whisky world with the chance to take part in the time honoured preparations of the iconic drink before hand-filling a bottle of Benromach as a souvenir of this unforgettable experience.

Whisky lovers can also take part in the Cask Strength Challenge Quiz at Strathisla Distillery, with the winning team taking away rare limited edition bottles of Deoch an Doras 36 Year Old whisky, produced by the now defunct Inverleven distillery.

For those who want to let their hair down while in Malt Whisky country there are a range of exciting daytime and evening entertainments showcasing the best of Speyside spirit including the Coleburn Distillery Fun Day and Ceilidh, an extravaganza added to this year’s programme offering whisky barrel buggy racing and some traditional craic at an evening ceilidh.

Other brand new musical highlights include a celebration of contemporary Scottish music at the Celtic Spirit evening at The Glenfiddich Distillery and the Whisky and Jazz event at the Craigellachie Hotel, where Dutch whisky author Hans Offringa will be on hand to sign copies of his book ‘The Road to Craigellachie – Revisited’ which will be officially re-launched as part of the festival programme offering enthusiasts the change to get their hands on a copy of this whisky themed travel book that quickly became a collector’s item after its first edition was released in 2004.

Over the course of the Festival visitors will have the opportunity take part in numerous long-standing favourite events such as guided tours of many of Speyside’s 50+ world renowned distilleries, including some not usually open to the public, as well uncovering the unique appeal of this amazing area of north east Scotland on a range of whisky themed walks and tours.

Outdoor events include the festival’s famed “Dramble” where walkers can sample the spirits on offer at the seven stills of Dufftown by foot, a selection of whisky and wildlife walks guided by local rangers, as well as exclusive motorised tours taking in the backcountry braes that used to conceal the smugglers stills by four wheel drive or even in an amphibious argocat.

Connoisseurs will have the chance to blend their own whisky at the Cardhu distillery as well as sampling some superb single malts and helping to select the winning whiskies at the Spirit of Speyside Whisky Awards prior to the annual opening dinner at Knockando Distillery.

Tastings will also be offered at a range of other events including the foodie friendly Sweet and Savoury Whisky Pairing workshops at Gordon and MacPhail where guests will receive guidance on how to select the top tipples to complement their favourite foods. Whisky and food will also be the subject of some new additions to the festival programme with tasting tours taking place on the Saturday and Sunday of the festival.

Liquid Reductions From The Drink Shop

April 27, 2011 by Gary Leave a Comment

While updating The Drink Shop’s product list I noticed some reductions I thought I’d share.
In particular from the list below is the Mackmyra Swedish Malt Whisky whose price has come down by over £15.00 (27%).

Supplier	Brand	Bottle Size	Price
The Drink Shop	Mackmyra – First Edition Single Malt 70cl Bottle Country: Swedish Region: Swedish Age: Strength: 46.1% Summary: Much of the whisky has been stored in 100-litre casks, which produces an exciting, powerful ageing process. Also used were newly manufactured Swedish oak casks, made using oak that was planted on the island of Visings – 160 years ago and intended for use in building warships for the Swedish navy. The base is an Elegant recipe, stored in bourbon casks of first fill quality. All stored in the Bodas mine, 50 metres down inside the primary rock. The colour is light yellow, with hints of amber. The nose is fruity with citrus, pear, apple, honey, light oak with hints of lightly toasted bread and fresh, buttery caramel. The flavour is fruity and subtle, with citrus, caramel and honey. A light hint of oak can be noted at the end. The aftertaste is well-adjusted and balanced, with hints of dark chocolate. For optimal flavour, the alcohol strength has been adjusted to 46.1% using naturally purified water from the Valbo Ridge.	70cl	£ 40.69 BUY NOW SAVE: £ 15.14 (27%) (was: £ 55.83)
The Drink Shop	Jameson – Rarest Vintage Reserve 70cl Bottle Country: Irish Region: Irish Summary: Nose: A real full bodied aroma. Initially sweet with ripe fruit notes of melon, bananas and dark fleshy plums. The unmistakable pot still spicy character combines to give hints of treacle, cinnamon and liquorice. Taste: A mouthful of flavours. Mellow sweetness and toasted wood are complemented by fruit richness characteristic of the port casks. A touch of creamy dairy fudge and dark chocolate add to the complexity. Finish: A tantalisingly long finish which covers the spectrum from the sweetness of fruit, through the spices to the unmistakable note of barley, where it all began. You've met the Jameson Family, now meet the Godfather of them all, Jameson Rarest Vintage Reserve. This initial expression of maturing rare pot still whiskey in traditional fortified wine casks is a triumph of the collaboration between the Jameson Masters; devotees to their craft whose skill and artistry have been richly rewarded. All the whiskeys in this magnificent Reserve are of an advanced age and have an immense collage of flavours to impart from their time in the wood. The pick of Jameson's older grain whiskeys were brought together with some rare and charismatic pot still whiskeys that had been matured in hand-picked second fill bourbon casks. These were carefully married with a rare pot still whiskey that was aged to a fantastic mellow sweetness in specially commissioned port pipes. The resulting union has a glorious, fruit rich character.	70cl	£ 221.69 BUY NOW SAVE: £ 34.18 (13%) (was: £ 255.87)

The Drink Shop	Compass Box – Hedonism Limited Release 70cl Bottle Country: Scotland Region: Age: Strength: 100% Summary: Type: Vatted Grain. 100% grain whisky made by blending single grain whiskies from different distilleries. Tasting Notes: Elegant flavours of vanilla cream, toffee, coconut. Lead Distilleries: Cambus, Caledonian, Cameron Bridge. Casks: 100% first-fill bourbon barrels and first-fill American oak hogsheads. Bottling Details: 43%, not chill filtered, natural colour. John Glaser's Tasting Notes: A rich, sweet, sexy style of whisky which you'll find is aptly named! Have you ever tasted really good grain whisky from Scotland? Unless you've tried the stuff in the bottle to the left, you probably have not. Most people haven't, even many serious whisky lovers. Almost no one bottles it! I believe that great grain whiskies from well chosen casks are the undiscovered treasures of Scotland's whisky kingdom. That's why I created this whisky called Hedonism! Hedonism is our award winning blend of grain whiskies. Stylistically, this is, (in my humble opinion), a beautiful drink: supple, silky, with elegant, rich flavours of vanilla, toffee, coconut and cocoa. It's also a rare whisky in that it's composed of the most perfectly mature casks of grain whisky we can find, and also because it always contains at least some component whiskies from Cambus. Cambus was sadly shut in the early 1990s, but is beloved by blenders for its soft, sweet style. Grain whiskies have been made in Scotland going back to the early part of the 1800s. They are the elegant, almost feminine alter ego to Scotland's malt whiskies. Most people think of them as the 'filler' whiskies in the well-known, commercial blends, but this is far from the whole story. Each grain whisky distillery in Scotland makes a distinctive spirit. And the best grain whiskies–from great casks–are some of the silkiest, sweetest, most mouth-wateringly delicious whiskies in the world. Hedonism is like nothing that's been bottled before in Scotland. No one has ever made a 'vatted grain' (a blend of single grain whiskies from different distilleries) that shows off how delicious Scottish grain whiskies can be! It's a rare and seriously sexy style of Scotch whisky, unlike anything else on the market.	70cl	£ 52.95 BUY NOW SAVE: £ 3.17 (6%) (was: £ 56.12)
The Drink Shop	Stronachie – 12 Year Old 70cl Bottle Country: Scotland Region: Highland Age: 12 Year Old Strength: Summary: Appearance: Bright. Full gold with orange flecks. Tawny tones. Viscous and syrupy holding on to the side of the glass. Defined tears which dissipate fairly slowly. Nose: Initial whiffs of sour dough elapse to form a back bone of spiced fruit flavours. Apples and raisins. Perhaps some pear drops. Pronounced and quite sweet with the addition of water. Palate: Firm and well rounded. Medium to full bodied with good depth of flavour. Spicy and invigorating. Spiced fruit cake with an abundance of raisins. Cinnamon and cloves. Sweet woody notes and prominent peat smoke evolve in the mouth to leave a drying aftertaste.	70cl	£ 31.79 BUY NOW SAVE: £ 1.88 (6%) (was: £ 33.67)
The Drink Shop	Laphroaig – 10 Year Old 70cl Bottle Country: Scotland Region: Islay Age: 10 Year Old Strength: Summary: Laphroaig Malt Whisky is distilled in the Islay region of Scotland. Laphroaig (pronounced la-froyg) is one of the most distinctive of all malt whiskies. The distillery was built in the 1820s by Donald and Alex Johnson whose family name is still on the label. In 1847 Donald died in a somewhat bizarre accident after falling into a vat of partially made whisky ('burn't Ale'). Laphroaig (Gaelic: The beautiful hollow by the broad bay) has its own peat beds on Islay. Its maturation warehouses face directly on to the sea. For many, it is an acquired taste, but one which rewards persistance. Its palate is smokey with a long aftertaste. If you like Islay smokey whiskies, then you'll love this one, you can almost taste the sea.	70cl	£ 27.79 BUY NOW SAVE: £ 1.70 (6%) (was: £ 29.49)
The Drink Shop	Barrogill – Blended Malt 70cl Bottle Country: Scotland Region: Summary: A North Highland Blended malt produced from distilleries only located in the Northern Highlands. Endorsed by HRH The Prince Charles, Duke of Rothesay. The first Northern Highland Blended Malt ever produced from this region. The unique packaging of Barrogill utilises the Royal colours, stressing the Royal connections. Nose – Full bodied with floral and sweet fruity aromas that are reflective of its North Highland roots. Taste – Sweet and spicy to the taste, with a slight warm peaty undertone. Finish – A long lasting finish that is complex yet superbly balanced. (Glass not included).	70cl	£ 21.89 BUY NOW SAVE: £ 2.16 (9%) (was: £ 24.05)
