NAS No.1 Blended Malt 30 Year
$599.99
In this case, NAS cheekily means Notable Age Statements... and it is no exaggeration in this case. This whisky is composed of Signatory cask samples, and bottling run ends (partial bottles), married into a fresh sherry seasoned cask already at least 16 years of age. The whisky is now at least 30 years old, with much of the liquid considerably older. Some it is from closed distilleries, and some of it is from the 1960s! 91pts Whisky Fun & 90.47pts Whiskybase
Scotch Malt Whisky Society Smokus Frutic
$140.99
SMOKUS FRUTICOSUS
This 10 year old, 50% abv blended malt, is comprised of malt whiskies from the islands of Islay & Orkney, using bourbon barrels and hogsheads, as well as Spanish and American oak sherry hogsheads, which were seasoned with Oloroso & Pedro Ximenez wines. The resulting whisky is sweet, rich & intensely smoky, as the medicinal character of Islay peat marries with the floral & earthy smoke of the Orkney isles.
Flavour profile: Peated
Outturn: 2445 bottles
Compass Box Flaming Heart 2022
$204.99
This whisky was featured on Day 20 of our 2024 KWM Not An Advent Calendar Tastings! You can read more about the whisky here.
The 2022 (7th) Edition of Compass Box Flaming Heart has been built around powerful malts from Laphroaig, Caol Ila, and Talisker, tamed a bit with others from Glen Elgin, Balmenach, and Highland Park, and that's not all. This Blended Malt consists of a wide range of components including remnants from the 2018 Flaming Heart and Peat Monster Arcana. 48.9%.
Producer Description
“This is our seventh edition of Flaming Heart, the whisky that revels in the harmonies between heavy peat and toasted French oak. Imagine Metallica with a backing orchestra, and you’re getting close. With the best bands, each album is an opportunity to explore and experiment; every record is an evolution from the one before. For fans of Flaming Heart, we always seek to evolve the ‘sound’ and have introduced a deep fruitiness to the arrangement for the 2022 version.
“The smoke machine is powered by a combination of malts from the Laphroaig, Caol Ila and Talisker distilleries, while our Highland Malt Blend has spent more than five years in richly toasted virgin French oak custom casks to deliver round, booming spicy richness.”

Compass Box Peat Monster Cask Strength
$157.49
Limit 1 Per Customer!
Sadly 9000ish bottles don't go very far when you have a global brand like Compass Box... so the Peat Monster Cask Strength is limited to 1 per person!
Producer Description
"To mark its 20th birthday, and to celebrate America's influence on Scotch whisky more broadly, we have brought The Peat Monster back to where it all began. We originally created a peaty whisky called Monster for the Goldstein family at Park Avenue Liquor Shop in New York City, in 2003. It turned out to be so popular that we created a new batch, renamed it The Peat Monster and it joined our core range. The Peat Monster - like most Scotch whiskies – owes its maturation vessels to the US whisk(e)y industry and its practice of using casks only once."
Cadenhead Enigma 15 Year Blended Malt
$124.99
Bottled at 48.2% from a parcel of whiskies distilled in 2008, this curious "Campbeltown Blended Malt" was created by marrying 15 year old Hazelburn and 16 year old Kilkerran.
Producer Description
"Hailing from the west coast town of Campbeltown, this blend of 15yo Hazelburn and 16yo Kilkerran whisky has been tucked away in the depths of our warehouses maturing up until now."
