First Edition Glengoyne 2008 15 Year
$214.99
This 15 year old Glengoyne from First Editions was a 2008 distillation, matured in a Refill Hogshead. 59.1%
Tullibardine The Murray CS 56.1%
$104.99
The Murray has long been one of our favorite pseudo-core range cask strength distillery bottlings. Its clean barley-forward profile stands in sharp contrast to many of its peers, whom we'll not mention here. A whisky of this calibre and execution is almost underpriced in today's climate.
Distilled in 2008, matured in First Fill American Oak, and bottled in 2021 at 56.1%. Natural colour and non chill-filtered.
Paul John Classic Select Cask
$97.99
Matured in American oak this Inidian single malt has been bottled at a cask strength of 55.2%.
Distiller's Tasting Note
Nose: Fruity, malty aromas are intertwined with honey. A hint of bourbon teases your senses.
Palate: With the very first sip, flavours of malted barley greet you. A heady mix of bourbon and manuka honey-liquorice makes for an attractive spine. And while you relish this experience, the unexpected flavour of toasted honeycomb takes you by surprise.
Finish: This Single Malt has an absolutely elegant finish, with juicy Demerara tones ensuring a soft, friendly finish.

Laphroaig 27 Year
$1,519.99
A curious bottling of mature Laphroaig, bottled at a very low cask strength of 41.7%. This low strength is more easily understood when you consider the whisky was matured in both Ex-Bourbon Barrels and more crucially Quarter Casks, 125L barrels. These Quarter Casks increase the surface area exposure to the spirit, leading to a more rapid maturation and a much higher angel's share. 90pts Angus @ Whisky Fun
Auchentoshan Bartender`s Malt
$67.99
One of the most interesting Auchentoshans we've seen yet. The Bartender's Malt was the construct of a dozen of the world's best bartenders. Their goal? Build a malt whisky big enough to stand up to the demands of cocktails that require Scotch whisky as one of their ingredients. Whether or not you believe it borders on blasphemy to bury a fine single malt whisky in juices and syrups and fruit is a debate for another day, but it should be made clear what these 12 innovators were up against. Auchentoshan is a Lowland malt, triple distilled, with a reputation for being something of a lightweight. By nature, something like that is bound to get out-muscled in a mixed drink, right? Well...not necessarily. They've upped the abv, included some spicier, more lively casks (of all sorts!), and vatted whiskies from the last five decades in order to create something that was punchy enough to cut through. And you know what? They've succeeded.
