Producer Description
"Please be warned that this whisky is extremely fruity, juicy and exquisite. As such, please refrain from wearing the new All-Automatic Opinion Digitiser 3000 while tasting it.

"Get up close and go under the microscope with Chapter Nine of Whiskyland. It's a beautiful 2nd fill barrel of 'Gone Grant' single malt, a beautiful whisky from a sadly lost distillery that rhymes with 'tap her scone twitch'.

The kind of surprising detail and fascinating beauty you find when you put Whiskyland under a microscope. Join us in a world of Dramblemites, old outbid notification emails and strange matter..."
Decadent Drams Smogen 8 Year
$334.99
57.1% - 2016 - Matured in First Fill ex-Oloroso Sherry / Finished in 2nd Fill Sherry Hogshead
Producer Description
"This is the second of a pair of Smögen bottlings for our Decadent Drams series. After our Madeira-matured 10 year old last month, comes this 8 year old that was distilled in 2016, matured initially in two oloroso sherry quarter casks, then combined and re-racked into a 2nd fill sherry hogshead for the remainder of its maturation. We also bottled this one at the same strength as its sibling bottling: 57.1%. It's a very big whisky this, with immense sherry influence and gorgeously intense peat. These big forces are well integrated and create a wonderfully dark, umami, salty, peaty and intense example of Smögen."
Decadent Drams Inchmurrin 12 Year
$239.99
57.1% - 2012 - 2nd Fill ex-Bourbon Barrel
Producer Description
"A luscious wee fruit bomb of an Inchmurrin is the latest juice to grace our Decadent Drams series. Distilled in 2012 and matured for over 12 years in a second fill barrel before we bottled it with slight reduction at 57.1%. Pure, grassy, green and full of bright exotic fruit notes - this is highly luscious and fruity whisky, exactly as we love it! Angus had just come back from Japan when he did the label for this one, which is why it is drenched in indigo."
Decadent Drams Loch Do 15 Year
$231.99
Loch Do!! is a bastardization of the name and scotch called Loch Dhu, which itself was an abomination inflicted on an unsuspecting public in the early 1990s. That horrific brand and bottle did a tremendous job at destroying the reputation of Mannochmore Distillery for years. Hopefully, Loch Do!! does some work in repairing that reputation.
50% - 2009 - Refill Hogsheads
88.26 points Whiskybase
Producer Description
"A playful 'homage' (piss take) of the infamous Loch Dhu bottling. Ours also hails from Mannochmore Distillery but we've dubbed it Loch Do! A Decadent Drams special. It is a marriage of whisky from two refill hogsheads filled in 2009 and bottled at 15 years of age and natural cask strength, which just so happened to be bang on 50%. It's a beautifully waxy, rich, fruity example of Mannochmore which shows off this distillate's charismatic richness and weight very well."
Whiskyland Ch.10 Laphroaig 26 Year
$1,207.49
This 1998 vintage Laphroaig is a marriage of two refill ex-Bourbon Barrels, finished for 2 years in a 3rd Fill Sherry Hogshead. 57%. 91.55pts Whiskybase & 92pts Whisky Fun
Producer Description
"Whiskyland Chapter 10 is something special, a small batch Laphroaig 1998. The marriage of two refill barrels, that have been combined in a 3rd fill sherry hogshead for over two years and bottled at natural cask strength. This label celebrates memory, for Whiskyland is filled with, and made of, memories. The whisky is extremely pure, aged Laphroaig in character. Rich in medicines and peat smoke, with balancing fruits and coastal character. It is a deep and beautiful whisky, one that you will hopefully remember. A dram to sip when you visit the Whiskyland Memory Box."
