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 the landmark distillery Glen Keith ,which was the first to be built in Speyside region in the 20th century. The tall copper stills used to distill this twenty five year old Whisky imparts distinctively Speyside flavours.
On the nose there is a syrupy sweetness; akin to toffee apples and spiced ginger marmalade. This is followed by tangy gooseberry jam and vanilla custard on the palate. The finish is long, smooth and sweet.

Innovation in a new form, using sweet and flavourful wort in tandem with crystal clear glacier water to build on flavours years in the making. Deproofing whisky is simple, by should it be?

Bottled at barrel proof, Maker’s Mark Cask Strength ranges from 108 to 114 proof depending on the barrels. Surprisingly smooth, this bourbon retains the signature, front-of-the-palate flavors of Maker’s Mark while amping up the vanilla and rich oak notes.

Taste: Robust, warm texture with notes of caramel, vanilla and spice
Finish: Long finish on front of tongue, harmonious with no harsh bitterness
With 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.
