Edencroft – All New Whiskies

April 15, 2013 by Gary Leave a Comment

Edencroft has 6 New additions to it’s range this week with whiskies from the Islay, Lowland and Speyside regions.

The brands include Bunnahabhain, Glen Grant, Glen Moray, Glenlivet, Littlemill & Invergordon.

The ages of the new whiskies range from 20 to 38 Year Old malts.

Supplier	Brand	Bottle Size	Price
Edencroft	24 Year Old Invergordon – Berry’s Own Selection Country: Scotland Region: Lowland Age: Strength: 46% Summary: Invergordon distillery is located on the shores of the Cromarty firth in the north-east Highlands of Scotland. Founded in 1959, it is the only grain distillery in the Highlands and for a few years also had the Ben Wyvis malt distillery on the site but this closed in 1975. The nose gives toasted oak, apple and melon skins with an uplifting menthol note. There is some honeyed depth and cinnamon spice. The palate is beautifully expansive with bourbon cask notes, buttery vanilla and cream caramel. The delivery is almost angelic and long lingering.	70cl	£ 59.50 BUY NOW
Edencroft	23 Year Old Bunnahabhain – Berry’s Own Selection Country: Scotland Region: Islay Age: Strength: 51.4% Summary: Bunnahabhain translates as “mouth of the river” from the gaelic, the river in question being the Margadale which flows into the Sound of Islay near to the distillery. Although generally a more lightly peated Islay this expression is an exception as it was produced from a batch of stock using barley at a higher level of peat-smoke exposure. The nose gives noticeable smoky notes with a little marzipan, some jute cloth and spice. The fruity palate is layered, rich with building sooty intensity as the flavours displayed on the nose develop. This is beautifully intense with a classy lingering finish.	70cl	£ 89.50 BUY NOW
Edencroft	37 Year Old Glen Grant – Berry’s Own Selection Country: Scotland Region: Speyside Age: 37 Year Old Strength: 47.8% Summary: Nose: at 54, am I too old to swoon? That near perfection of thick grape infused with the essence of barley malt. The sugars are mere hints: grist here, honeydew melon there. And all emboldened by a smattering of herb and not overly antagonistic spice; Taste: the spices are more upfront now. But before they get a chance to really soar, molten honey fills the palate and dispenses grape in its cleanest form; the middle is a marvellous mix of coconut and raisin chocolate; Finish: maybe suffering from not quite knowing where the middle ends and the end begins. But there is no bitterness, no oak trying to have the last say at the cost of all else. Just a slow denouement, perhaps with a sprig of mint attached, of all else that has gone before; Balance: when I come across an unspoiled nugget like this, a malt of timeless magnificence, then the whisky world seems such a wonderful place in which to live. Those responsible for Scotland’s whisky future could do worse than invest in a bottle and see what steps have to be taken to continue this glittering tradition. Certainly, the casks which have gone into this bottling represent a high water – or is it grape juice? – mark for Scotch single malt whisky.	70cl	£ 140.00 BUY NOW
Edencroft	20 Year Old Glen Moray – Berry’s Own Selection Country: Scotland Region: Speyside Age: 20 Year Old Strength: 57.3% Summary: Nose: a lovely intertwining of polished oaky floors and muscavado-polished barley; Taste: deliveries on the palate rarely come more delicious than this: Glen Moray, when on form, is in the true malty elite of Scotland and here it tops the Premier League. The blend of sugars, some honeyed, spices and cocoa make you groan with pleasure; Finish: the vanilla and butterscotch kick in as you suspect they might. But the barley remains steadfast and clean; Balance: I have long regarded Berry’s whisky buyer Dougie McIvor one of the genuinely understated gems of the industry and the best whisky writer we never had. Here he demonstrates his understanding of clean, barley-rich malts which has made this year’s crop of Berry’s Own Selection arguably their best yet. When you taste this you can see why I exploded in rage at the deficiencies of the official ‘Distillery manager’ bottling a few years backâ€¦	70cl	£ 71.50 BUY NOW
Edencroft	38 Year Old Glenlivet – Berry’s Own Selection Country: Scotland Region: Speyside Age: 38 Year Old Strength: 48.6% Summary: Nose: despite the fact it pulses antiquity this remains sprightly and nubile, the barley absolutely fizzing on the nose. A few shards of honey offer weight and resonance to the citrus; Taste: demands a mouth-watering delivery after that nose, and that is exactly what you get. The spices flock to the scene so the taste buds are at once drowned, caressed and burnt alive…; Finish: long, with a slow devaluation of the sugars as the vanillas take command; Balance: about as salivating a near 40-year-old you are likely to find! Â© Jim Murrays – 2013 Whisky Bible.	70cl	£ 145.00 BUY NOW
Edencroft	20 Year Old Littlemill – Berry’s Own Selection Country: Scotland Region: Lowland Age: Strength: 54.9% Summary: Littlemill distillery was founded at Bowling to the east of Glasgow on the banks of the river Clyde in the 1770’s and laid claim to being Scotland’s oldest distillery. It was dismantled in 1997 and the remaining buildings destroyed by a fire in 2004. The nose gives white chocolate and peach skins with traces of ginger, cinnamon and delicate peat. The palate comes alive with nectarines and more white chocolate as the mouth-feel fattens to release some honey and lemon. When excellent examples such as this appear they make Littlemill’s sad demise even sadder.	70cl	£ 78.85 BUY NOW
