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)

Style: Rich and smooth, a fine example of a sherry matured Highland Malt.	70cl	£ 92.95 BUY NOW SAVE: £ 6.00 (6%) (was: £ 98.95)
The Drink Shop	Benromach – 25 Year Old 70cl Bottle Country: Scotland Region: Speyside Age: 25 Year Old Strength: Summary: Colour: Pale gold. Nose: Toasted spices with a sharp fruitiness – citrus oils. There is also a subtle vanilla note. Body: Mouth coating. Palate: Spicy, almost peppery with a rounding creaminess. The fruitiness develops with the spices, reminiscent of rich fruitcake. Finish: Lasting. Cask type: Refill American hogsheads. Whisky style: The fruit and spice characteristics of Benromach are balanced with the subtle sweetness of the American Oak. Michael Jackson is internationally the most widely published author on whisky. His Malt Whisky Companion is the world's best selling book on the subject and is in its revised 5th edition. Jackson is a Master of the Quaich. His tasting notes… Colour: Full greeny gold. Nose: Perfumey. Fragrant hit of smokiness. Body: Creamy. Palate: Rich. Blossomy. Herbaceous borders. A British garden in summer. Finish: Lively. Warming. Comment: The best of Benromach. Confident, articulate, and in a mood to talk.	70cl	£ 68.29 BUY NOW SAVE: £ 4.66 (6%) (was: £ 72.95)

Taste – Full bodied, with hints of vanilla and floral notes in the background; a long-lasting memorable finish.	70cl	£ 48.69 BUY NOW SAVE: £ 10.10 (17%) (was: £ 58.79)
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.
