Living Souls Torabhaig 7 Year
$119.99
This 7 year old Torabhaig is one of the first independent bottlings we have seen of the distillery, bottled at 51.5% from a First Fill ex-Bourbon Barrel.
Producer Description
"This release is a bold single malt from Torabhaig distillery on the Isle of Skye, matured in 1st fill bourbon barrels. A sip takes you to a late summer BBQ by a misty Scottish loch, where the scent of smoked ham hangs in the cool air and laughter echoes off the hills. Flavours of burnt sticky marshmallows and roasted almonds fill the air, creating a sweet and savoury contrast that lingers. This is a dram made for long evenings, full of flavour and lively conversation. "

Cadenhead Authentic Speyside 27 Year

This 27 year old single malt was bottled at the perilously low cask strength of 40.2%, after maturing in a Bourbon Hogshead. From the confusingly named Speyside Distillery, Cadenhead has doubled down on that by naming it Speyside-Glenlivet... that in itself is a whole thing!

Yamazaki 12 Year
$399.99
The Yamazaki 12 Year is one of the most iconic and recognizable Japanese Single Malt Whiskies. Bottled at 43%.
Yamazaki was the first distillery in Japan built to make single malt whisky, and it can be argued that its success is chiefly what lead Suntory Global to becoming one of the major global whisky-makers today. The distillery was founded in 1923 by Shinjiro Torii and Mastataka Taketsuru, and has been operating for over a century now.
Producer Description
"The Yamazaki whisky is Suntory's flagship single malt whisky, from Japan’s first and oldest malt distillery. With a range of options from Yamazaki Distiller's Reserve to 12, 18, and 25 years old, all of these prized whiskies contain carefully blended components aged in American, Spanish, and Japanese Mizunara oak."
Michter's American Whiskey
$75.59
"Unlike bourbon or rye, which, by definition, must be aged in new oak barrels, our US 1 Unblended American Whiskey is aged in a way that utilizes bourbon-soaked barrels to achieve a rich and unique flavour profile," according to the team at Michter's. It has notes of "deep butterscotch and vanilla notes, hints of caramel and dried fruit with a ripened fruit finish."
While the Michter’s name has a long and storied history, the Michter’s Distillery of Louisville, KY has only been in operation since 2015. Any whiskey bottled that is older than that was sourced from other distilleries, typically within Kentucky. Luckily, the quality of anything bottled with the Michter’s label on it is typically high, regardless of their original provenance.
Other than their single barrel products, Michter’s typically bottles their whiskey from selected small batches of 20 barrels or less.
