A gentle and approachable 10 year old single malt from the Glen Grant distillery in Rothes. Produced in pot stills and aged in ex-bourbon barrels, this is a light Speyside whisky with delicious notes of vanilla, fruit and malt. A great introduction to whisky for beginners, but there’s enough here to be enjoyed by more experienced palates.

Cadenhead’s Fettercairn 17 Year Old Chairman’s Stock Cask Strength (54.8% abv)
$129.99Finished in a Granada rum cask since 2019, this bottling from Fettercairn distillery features notes of barbecued bananas, pineapple upside down cake and lemon zest.
Fettercairn is a highland distillery sat by the Cairngorm Mountatins.
Given the equipment and production style, it’s easy to see why a firm, relatively heavy, nutty style whisky is created. Furthermore, between 1995 & 2009, the condensers were made of stainless steel, adding a slightly burnt, pot ale character to the new make. However, a cooling ring at the top of the swan neck, spraying cold water down the still sides, helps reflux and guides the spirit towards a lighter profile.
Nose:
Barbecued bananas, mineral notes, pampas grass, sherbert lemons.Flavour:
Coastal notes, miso, chalk.Finish:
Pineapple upside down cake, gooseberries, lemon zest. -
Cadenhead’s Dailuaine 15 Year Old Chairman’s Stock Cask Strength (53.6% abv)
$114.99With the last 4 years of maturation spent in a Fino cask, this whisky from Dailuaine distillery is deliciously savoury with notes of green olives, marmite, samphire.
Rarely seen as a single malt, which allows independent bottlers to present this spirit to whisky lovers, Dailuaine spirit is heavy and meaty thanks to the long fermentation period, quick distillation and the use of stainless steel in the condensers.
Based in Aberlour in Speyside, Dailuaine was once the largest distillery in the region and, although that’s no longer the case today, capacity was increased by 25% in 2012.
Nose:
Green olives, peanut butter, marmite, ripe banana, cigar box.Flavour:
Anchovies, tobacco leaf, seaweed, samphire.Finish:
Honey, ginger, waxy fruit.
