Smirnoff Vodka
$29.99
The original Smirnoff Vodka distillery -- a favourite of the Tsars -- was started by one Pyotr Smirnov in Moscow in the 1860s. These days, the company is one of the world's biggest vodka producers.

On the palate, it has a hint of sweet peach flavours with wood notes and a dry finish.
Baileys Irish Cream
$34.99
Baileys Irish Cream was created by Gilbeys of Ireland as it searched for something to introduce to the international market. The process of finding a product began in 1971 and it was introduced in 1974 as the first Irish Cream on the market. Despite attributions to Andrew Bailey of the R.A. Bailey Company, no such person existed. The choice of the name Bailey was based on branding. Baileys is a cream liqueur made from a base of Irish whisky. It is the perfect addition to coffee or hot chocolate on a cold day, or for use in other specialty drinks.
Pernod
$34.99
A very popular licorice-flavoured liqueur from France! So versatile, whether you're cooking and need a little for a recipe, or you're making cocktails, or you simply want something special after dinner. Pernod is made from a blend of aromatic herbs and botanicals, and has been made for more than 200 years! When you add water, it turns from a clear liqueur to an opaque milky-white colour.
anCnoc 12 Year Knockdhu
$66.99
anCnoc is Scottish Gaelic for 'the hill', which, in English is rendered 'Knockdhu' and should not be confused with the other distillery 'Knockando'. The brand decided to market itself under the label anCnoc to avoid confusion. Knockdhu is located in the Eastern Highlands not far from the town of Keith. The whisky has in recent years been marketed heavily as a single malt, though for most of its life it has been primarily produced for blends like Haig.
Distiller's Tasting Note:
Nose: Soft, very aromatic with a hint of honey and lemon in the foreground.
Taste: Sweet to start with an appetising fruitiness and a long smooth finish. Light yet complex, smooth yet challenging. This is a dram that has something for everyone.
Sperone Marsala Dry
$21.99
Marsala is like a distant cousin to sherry. Lord Nelson used Marsala to fortify the Royal Navy way back, when sailing ships sailed the high seas. Marsala is produced in the region surrounding the city of Marsala in Sicily. It's an intensely aromatic, fortified wine. Dry and clean. It's used in cooking and sauces but it's also very nice as an aperitif, or paired with Gorgonzola, Roquefort and other spicy cheeses.

Pimms No. 1 Cup Gin
$29.99
The Pimm's tradition is almost as entrenched in British culture as the cup of tea. Pimm's was invented in the 1840s, by the owner of an oyster bar in the City of London. James Pimm offered the tonic (which was a gin based drink containing quinine and a secret mixture of herbs) as an aid to digestion, and served it in a small tankard. This is where the "No. 1 Cup" moniker arose. A traditional Pimm's cocktail includes one slice of cucumber, a sprig of mint and two parts of ginger ale to one part Pimm's. A favourite at KWM!
