Terroir-driven Irish whisky producer Waterford Distillery has bottled its definitive, flagship single malt – The Cuvée – due to be released worldwide this autumn.
Inspired by Bordeaux’s greatest chateaux, Waterford Distillery has applied the same methodology to create the ultimate in whisky flavour complexity, a genuine innovation for the spirits industry, called The Cuvée.
25 totally unique Waterford Single Farm Origin whiskies, drawn from distinct terroirs of Southern Ireland, have been married together to create a layered, profound and compelling taste experience.
It has notes of red apples, breadcrust, green foliage, lavender, digestive biscuits, oranges, fresh mint, coffee cake, with a distinctly oily, textured palate delivering grapefruit, lemon zest, dark chocolate, cherries, granola and marmalade with an extraordinary length of flavour.

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!
LIMIT 1 PER PERSON/HOUSEHOLD

Sweet to start with notes of peach iced tea and cola syrup, this dram from Glentauchers distillery develops as you sip revealing savoury notes of cigar box, taragon and nutmeg.
Glentauchers’ spirit has a long history of making its way into blends but this gives independent bottlers the perfect opportunity to be involved in sharing the flowery aroma of ‘Tauchers with the world.
Sitting in Mulben, Moray, the distillery has consistently produced a light spirit throughout its history, even though it has been known to fall foul of relatively fallow periods for the whisky industry but, despite occasional ups and downs, it is still around today and we are very glad it is.
Nose:
Treacle, flaked almonds, peach iced tea, root beer.
Flavour:
Cola syrup, glacé cherries, strawberry jelly sweets, strawberry laces.
Finish:
Marzipan, menthol, nutmeg, candied lemon, taragon, cigar box, ginger.
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.
Elegant spice, treacle toffee, rich sherry oak – with an endlessly complex finish. Matured exclusively in hand-selected sherry casks for a character-building quarter-century. Made in the distillery’s traditional way, with the slowest distillation in Scotland and no peat used in the process.
Nose: Big notes of sherry-soaked fruit up front – raisins, figs and oranges. This is followed by wafts of toasted almonds and classic notes of old leather.
Palate: Vanilla and dark chocolate open up the palate. Sherry comes through yet again, but this time in the shape of rich, well spiced fruit cake. Hints of orange and oak round it off.
Finish: The finish lasts with notes of red fruits and cracked black pepper.
