Yamazaki Bourbon Barrel is a superior single malt whisky made from carefully selected Yamazaki malts. The whisky is cradled in bourbon barrels and stored in aging cellars located in Japan’s Yamazaki and Oumi regions until it reaches the peak of maturity. It is here that nature paints a changing backdrop with a palette of seasonal colours and provides a warm moist climate to slowly nurture the whisky within the barrel. The result is a distinctively Japanese whisky with an uncommon aroma and smooth, lingering sweet flavour that only a bourbon barrel can impart. Try it straight up for a taste experience that is sure to last a lifetime.

Age: 15 Year Old.   Strength: 45%
Summary: The Dalmore Cromartie is the third in a series of limited edition releases crafted by our Master Distiller, Richard Paterson, in homage to the Clan Mackenzie, owners of The Dalmore distillery for over a century. It celebrates the ancient lands of Cromartie, heartland of the clan, and home to Castle Leod, the clan’s historic seat where they still reside today. A substantial contribution from the sale of every bottle will go towards the matinenance of the clan estates at Cromartie. Distilled in 1996 at 45% ABV, The Dalmore Cromartie was initially matured in American white oak casks before being transferred to Oloroso sherry casks from Gonzales Byass, in Jerez de la Frontera. Aroma: Bergamot, mandarin and lemongrass. Palate: Bitter chocolate, Colombian coffee, marmalade, Seville oranges, Pedro Ximenez grapes and spicy cinnamon.

Laphroaig - Cairdeas Origin 2012 Bottling

Laphroaig – Cairdeas Origin 2012 Bottling
Country: Scotland   Region: Islay
Age:    Strength: 51.2%
Summary: First released at the Feis Ile 2012, Laphroaig Cairdeas Origin was bottled to celebrate 18 years of the Friends of Laphroaig program. Combining the original liquid used to first create Cairdeas along with newer Laphroaig spirit that has been fully matured in quarter casks.
Although there is no age statement on the bottle, weve been told by those-in-the-know that Laphroaig Cairdeas is new spirit that was placed into small quarter casks, enjoying a very intense maturation for seven years, that was then blended (50:50) with another special whisky the chaps at Laphroaig had been quietly maturing for between 13 and 21 years old. Both whiskies were fine expressions of Laphroaig in their own right, but when blended together something exceptional emerged as befits this 18th anniversary of the FOL club.
Colour: Golden Barley.
Nose: Distinctly Laphroaig – iodine, peat, smoke etc. but with quite a bit of citrus (Orange & Apples) and a hint of creamy fudge.
Taste: A good mixture of Laphroaig medicinal, peat, slight ginger, apples and hints of vanilla sweetness.
Finish: Quite long with peat, iodine and chocolatey coffee.

Macallan - Diamond Jubilee Bottling

Macallan – Diamond Jubilee Bottling
Country: Scotland   Region: Speyside
Age:    Strength: 52%
Summary: This specially designed bottle bears a unique image of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II created by the sculptor Arnold Machin. With only 2012 bottles available, and like their previous commemorative royal bottling’s, this edition is expected to be highly sought after by collectors from the worlds of whisky and art.
Nose: Vanilla is the first to show, sweet to a point, yet shows maturity. Citrus fruits hang on to the coattails, (orange, apple, hints of lemon), almost appear when they are required. The cask influences then appear, resinous, never overbearing, changing to show polished oak, aged, reminiscent of a once exquisite dining room.
Palate: Rich dried fruits open up to show their hand. Raisin drives the character in a non-nonsense manner. It is evident it is not alone, figs and dates, are the lesser players of the group. As they converse, treacle toffee takes a bow followed by the courtiers, ginger and clove. Like a finale the grand lady enters, Oak – refined, polished, elegant, overlooking all.
Finish: Long, meanders, in no hurry to leave.

Macallan - The Coronation Bottling

Macallan – The Coronation Bottling
Country: Scotland   Region: Speyside
Age:    Strength: 58.1% & 55.7%
Summary: This limited edition commemorative bottling comprises a beautifully designed box featuring two 350ml bottles of single malt whisky, the first conveying the Queen as she was in 1953, aged just 26, and the second honouring the treasured monarch she has become today. The two bottles each feature a different image of The Queen, one taken in 1953 by Cecil Beaton the other featuring an image taken in 2004 by Julian Calder, one of the world’s most renowned portrait photographers.
The first whisky, matured in American oak sherry seasoned casks, is a vibrant gold spirit offering a lemon and orange citrus nose. Ginger and summer berries flit in the background showing the exuberance of youth while hinting at a founding level of maturity.
Matured in Spanish sherry seasoned oak casks, the second whisky is a splendid mahogany spirit and presents a richly mature, elegant and refined nose. Nutmeg, ginger, rich fruits and resin soften to give a full mouth feel. There is great maturity on the palate, yet no sign of age.
