This one changed the way we think of bourbon, all because one man changed the way he thought about making it. Bill Samuels, Sr., simply wanted a whisky he would enjoy drinking. Never bitter or sharp, Maker’s Mark® is made with soft red winter wheat, instead of the usual rye, for a one-of-a-kind, full-flavored bourbon that’s easy to drink. To ensure consistency, we rotate every barrel by hand and age our bourbon to taste, not time. Each and every bottle of Maker’s® is still hand-dipped in our signature red wax at our distillery in Loretto, Ky., just like Bill, Sr., would have wanted.

Ardbeg Corryvreckan takes its name from the famous whirlpool that lies to the north of Islay, where only the bravest souls dare to venture. Swirling aromas and torrents of deep, peaty, peppery taste lurk beneath the surface of this beautifully balanced dram. Like the whirlpool itself, Corryvreckan is not for the faint-hearted! Awarded The World’s Best Single Malt in 2010 by the World Whiskies Awards.
Non chill-filtered at 57.1% ABV
70% corn / 25% rye / 5% malted barley
Barrel #245
The exclusive bourbon inside this bottle has been pulled from a single barrel, and hand-selected for its impeccable quality and flavour profile. The result is a masterpiece of uniquely dark and complex flavours, intermingled with surprisingly bright notes and the exuberant spice of rye.
Shane’s Notes:
Nose: Caramel apple, creme brulee, burnt orange, and banana pudding
Palate: Caramel driven off the start with a touch of vanilla bean. Buttery, creamy texture that’s followed up by a smash of rye spice and cinnamon. Dark chocolate, berries, and waves of oak follow.
Finish: Oak, tobacco, and orange zest linger on the palate.
From an era of unapologetic industrial ambition that built skyscrapers, the internet and age statement whiskies comes the Decades Series of J.P. Wiser’s. Slowly, over time, every drop of this whisky distilled in 1982 has been delicately refined to the highest standards. Here is to the shores of the tempestuous Windsor, alongside the cultural shifts that changed the face of the modern world! Dark gold in colour, with notes of rich vanilla, complex crust zest and baked rye bread.
The first of two new bottlings from the multi award-winning, small batch whiskey distillery nestled in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, Distillery 291.
Our Batch 2, is a 3 Year Old single cask Rye Whiskey, using 100% Colorado Rye. We’ve bottled it at natural cask strength 66.6% abv, and have filled just 294 bottles
With a nod to tradition, the mash is soured in open air fermenters before it is distilled three times in locally-made pot stills. Myers built his original still from copper photogravure plates that he had once used.
The whiskey is aged in virgin, heavy charred, American white oak barrels and is then brought to a finish using toasted aspen staves, which are harvested from a friend’s nearby land.
These two releases are an exercise in whisky geekery, and had we not gotten our hands on them would have been released as one of their ‘E’ Series releases. (E for experimental)
NOSE
Spicy, herbal, and a little bit agricultural. .Big rye bread dough notes, malty, Jamaican ginger cake, coffee candy. Hints of fennel and anise.
TASTE
Warming spices lead to sweet coffee, toasted rye bread, roasted grains and peppercorns. There’s a hint of chilli chocolate in the finish too. Seriously love this!
