Tumble Into Toffee

This whisky takes one on a good and satisfying taste trip of the sweet type of whisky with sticky toffee pudding and spice and smoke notes. The moment it enters your mouth, you find yourself in a different world where a sweet toffee gives way to a salty pancetta lardon all wrapped in warmth. The dram develops with time as does the flavour profile; notes of nutmeg, ginger, and a vaguely sandy ocean shore are added to the mix. The tasting journey is equally innovative, with chorizo confit in grenache wine, sliced red apples and brown sugar topped on a bed of vanilla custard. A few drops of water – it is like adding pancake batter note, dried figs, and marshmallows, and as the palate progresses, it goes into black pepper, orange peel, and cinnamon. This is a whisky that is full of character and complexity and yet flexible to the end.

• Complex Flavours: There is an interesting combination of toffee, pancetta and fruits.
• Dynamic Experience: The dram changes from moment to moment, as the water falls.
• Layered Depth: That’s the progression from warm toffee to spiciness to nutty flavours.
• Versatile Tasting: As it is for clean cup of coffee or with few drops of water to make it a little more intense.
• Memorable: A whisky that stays with you for as long as you can remember, and that is unforgettable.

Classic Old-School Sherry Bodega Funk

This whisky is all about the richness of sherry with the dark fruit notes of blackcurrant and raspberry dominating the feel of the whisky. This particular dram has a genuine sort of feel to it with sweet and tart fruity flavours combined with a deep, almost dirt-like note. Some of the sherry comes through as brandy snaps, candy floss and fruit cake burningly charred pine and the distant tang of medicinal product such as cough syrup. Gradually, the sweetness turns into salted caramel dark chocolate, camphor and tobacco notes which balances sherry’s strong character and brings out a mature flavour. On palate you get a sense of stewed plums, fig jam and a touch of green chartreuse and a very old school sherry. Realising its truly raw self, the whisky is then placed in bourbon wood for several years and is a product of that. This is a dram that harks back to the beginnings of whisky and allows you to taste whisky history.

• Classic Sherry Profile: Figs, cherries, red apple, spice, liquorice, earthy.
• Sweet Meets Savoury: Intense fruit chocs with just the right amount of salted caramel chocolate.
• Old-School Vibes: Very good sherry characters to it with depth, rich and powerful undertones.
• Matured Complexity: Carefully matured and aged to perfection in the most appropriate casks.
• Versatile: A great dram for the whisky aficionado who likes his whisky big, complex and not lacking in strength.

Peat in Parts Per Thousand

This whisky is all about the peat and how it unfolds in different layers of smoky goodness that are just wonderful. At the front of the palate one can distinguish the peat smoke with some exotic fruits, iodine and peppered mackerel which gives an impression of sea and salty. As the dram evolves it has a subtle smoked olive oil and tarred rope character with the fresh saltiness of wet beach kelp and the fishy notes of the creel nets. The beauty of this whisky lies in its balance: the peat is present and dominant, but it never dominates, as the fruity and salt flavours come through. This is a fine example of the art of distilling the peat in a bottle and is something unique. It is ideal for those who like strong-flavoured whisky that has a rich smoky taste and which develops further notes of the flavour.

• Peat Mastery: Strong smoke from peat with fruity richness in the background.
• Sea Salt & Smoke: Reminiscences of iodine, kippers and smoked mackerel.

Chauffeur-Driven Gâteau

This whisky starts with the familiar pleasant tastes of butter on the toasted malt loaf and develops into a journey of marmalade, charred mango, and exotic woods. A balance of the spiced and sweet, the dram brings you through an area of black forest gâteau and marzipan with layers to ground cinnamon and nutmeg. As this whisky develops, it transports you through some countryside with flavours of strawberry liqueur, plums and fresh figs accompanied by a creamy lime that is toned down with orange chocolate. The dram goes on to progress, providing rich experience which is lavish and nurturing. Having been matured in bourbon and first fill Spanish oak oloroso seasoned hogsheads, it has the potentiality associated with mastery and art of blending.

Seaborne breeze through the quince trees

This whisky gives the impression of a seaside break, the initial taste sensation is the popping and tingling one of fizzy apple sherbet, then the briny sea breeze. The aftertaste is as complex and unending as the flavours themselves and there are tastes of quince jelly and burnt pink grape fruit skin, which are sweet, fruity and slightly tangy, giving the tea a wonderful balance of fruit and zing. Further down the dram takes one by surprise with a lunch box of fresh pea and mint salad, toasted almonds and some warm pumpernickel bread. A few drops of water added other dimensions to the experience, revealing notes of hibiscus petals, dried mango or the loose tea like material of the pouch. The final touches of lemon drizzle cake and marzipan bring together this refreshing whisky that has been inspired by the coast. It is a dram that has the light sea breeze thing going on, and just enough sweetness to keep things from getting overly sugary.
