Our distillation process leaves all of the aromatic oils and essences from our botanicals intact, creating an alluring translucence when the Tempest Dry Gin is chilled or mixed.

Authors Series Blair Athol 1989
$739.99
From Edition Spirits (Hunter Laing) comes this 31-year-old Blair Athol as part of their illustrious Authors' Series. It's not often we see high age statement Blair Athol, as there is no official range being released by the disillery's owners, so instead we look for cool indie bottlings like this one.
Replete with an image of Austrian author and dramatist Arthur Schnitzler (yeah, we didn't know either; thank goodness for Google), this is unquestionably one of the best Blair Athol we've had in the shop. Almost gone!
The outturn from Sherry Hogshead #18442 was 236 bottles. Natural colour, non chill-filtered, and bottled at 45.6%.
Jura 21 Year The Tide
$319.99
From the Jura website: "Matured in American white oak ex bourbon barrels and finished in hand-selected virgin American white oak casks."
Words alone can't express how happy we are that this whisky hasn't been shuffled through half a dozen or so cask types before bottling, as is usually the way with Jura (and a few other brands under the family's umbrella). Ex-Bourbon maturation and more than two decades of slumber tell us that this saline little malt from the Isle of Jura's only distillery should be a real cracker. We also appreciate the 46.7% bottling strength.
Lismore 18 Year
$137.99
An 18 year old "mystery Speyside" single malt from The Lismore. This is not a distillery, but a company bottling single malt from an undisclosed distillery. The company itself just happens to be owned by that family that also owns Glenfarclas Distillery... Bottled at 43% after 18 years.
Sheringham Rhubarb Gin Liqueur
$47.99
From The Producer
"Jason has fond memories of cooking with rhubarb over the years, especially compote made with rhubarb freshly harvested from his garden. Drawn to the winning combination of rhubarb and star anise, he envisioned a liqueur that would taste as fresh and bright as a new summer’s day. With its classic gin base, premium rhubarb grown in British Columbia, and maceration process involving star anise and lemon skins, this liqueur achieves a perfect balance of tart, sweet, and subtly vegetal notes. A year-round delight, this liqueur is great on its own for sipping and equally enjoyable in a simple cocktail—just add ice and bubbles."
