"This 'Sideburn' blended malt Scotch whisky was distilled in 2007 and filled into cask as Burnside from William Grant & Sons. It has matured ever since in a single 1st fill Bourbon barrel for 18 years, before we bottled it at natural cask strength as this celebratory Decadent Drams release exclusively for the 10th anniversary of Heads & Tails. Congratulations Igor! Here's to another ten years of distillate-driven spirits and friendship! Please enjoy this special bottling with the smooth revelry and majestic groove of a veteran party Moose."

Whisky Trail Glen Keith 20 Year KWM Cask
$259.99
This 1996 vintage Glen Keith was matured 20 years in a Sherry Butt before bottling at 46.6%. Only 24 bottles have come to Canada, exclusively for Kensington Wine Market. But while our logo is on the label, there are just 24 bottles, meaning this isn't your typical KWM cask... so what's the story?!
More than a year ago, while looking at some casks with Elixir Distillers, we were offered 24 bottles of a 1996 Glen Keith, bottled at 20 years of age, presumably in 2016 or 2017. We assumed it was a single cask, bottled for another of Elixir Distillers' clients. In any case, the whisky was good, and the price was fair so we decided to take it.
On arrival, we did a little digging, and came upon an interesting coincidence. We don't know this for sure, but we can only find two other 20 year old 1996 vintage Glen Keiths bottled at 46.6%, and they were both done for the Whisky Exchange, which was owned by Elixir Distillers at the time. One of them appears to have been bottled for the 20th Anniversary of the Whisky Exchange in 2019, and the other, presumably the same year, as a Staff Christmas bottle, also marking the 20th Anniversary.
The most likely explanation, is that ours is the same whisky. In any case it is excellent, and we aren't getting very much of it!
Glenturret 12 Year 2025
$105.99
The 2025 edition of Glenturret 12 year is bottled at 46.2% after maturing in Oloroso & PX Sherry Seasoned European & American oak casks.
Producer Description
"The Glenturret 12 Years Old 2025 forms the heart of our annual release. This complex and alluring single malt showcases the rich character of European oak quietly supported by light, sweet notes of American oak. Oloroso and Pedro Ximenez sherry-seasoned casks purposefully build layers of flavour that announce themselves at every turn. The Glenturret 12 Years Old masterfully nurtures lighter citrus fruit and soft vanilla tones as they navigate a pathway of warming wood spices and toasted oak. "

Jameson Irish Whiskey
$42.99
Jameson's Irish whiskey has a long and distinguished history. John Jameson, originally from Scotland, opened the Dublin distillery in 1780 and its whiskey is now world-famous for its distinctive character and smoothness. Currently produced in Midleton by Irish Distillers, Jameson's has a pronounced pot still character and is matured in charred American Oak.
Producer Description
"Jameson Irish Whiskey is a blended Irish Whiskey. What's that we hear you say? Well first we take the best of pot still and fine grain whiskeys. Then we triple distill them- not because we have to because we want to as it gives it its signature smoothness. Finally we age them in oak casks for a minimum of 4 years. It’s where we recommend starting your whiskey journey. How to drink it? Any way you like. Just add mates and widen the circle. Triple distilled, twice as smooth, one of a kind."
