Rémy Martin Coupe 300th Anniversary is a special release created to mark 300 years of the House of Rémy Martin. Crafted by Cellar Master Baptiste Loiseau, it draws on the House’s Réserve Perpétuelle, continuing a lineage of anniversary Cognacs stretching back through previous Coupe releases.
Created from Grande Champagne eaux-de-vie, Coupe 300 combines mature character with freshness and complexity, reflecting three centuries of Rémy Martin’s Cognac-making heritage.

Tobermory 27 Year Old is the fifth and final expression in the distillery’s Hebridean Series, bringing the collection to a close with its oldest and most powerful release.
Initially matured in ex-bourbon casks, the whisky spent a further 12 years in González Byass Oloroso sherry casks, developing a rich and concentrated character while retaining Tobermory’s distinctive fruit-led style. Bottled at 53.1% ABV, it is also the highest-strength expression of the later Hebridean releases.
The extended Oloroso maturation brings layers of dark fruit, warming spice and mature oak, complemented by brighter notes of apricot, orange and pineapple. At 27 years old, it represents the culmination of the series’ progression through increasingly long periods of sherry maturation.
Presented as Expression 5, Tobermory 27 Year Old is a fitting final chapter for collectors of the Hebridean Series and an impressive example of long-aged, heavily sherried Tobermory.
Tasting Notes by Tobermory:Nose: An aroma rich with the scent of cinnamon pastries and dark black fruits. Sweet apricot and dried figs are joined by the earthy notes of toasted oak, all rounded off with a bright twist of orange zest.Palate: A thick layer of marmalade spreads across the palate, complemented by warming cinnamon spice. The flavours unfold to reveal fig rolls, blackcurrant, and brambles, with a touch of honey-roasted nuts and a hint of treacle toffee.Finish: The finish is steady and lasting, featuring red berry compote, fresh mandarins, and a pinch of nutmeg for good measure.
Royal Brackla 19 Year Old is a Highland single malt Scotch whisky matured in oak before a finishing period in Oloroso sherry hogsheads. Oloroso is a dry, oxidatively aged sherry — it adds dark fruit and depth without sweetness. The whisky is bottled at 54.9% ABV, non-chill filtered, and naturally coloured. This release is part of the Exceptional Cask Series and is limited to 1,170 bottles. Royal Brackla was granted a Royal Warrant in 1833 by King William IV.
Tasting Note by Royal Brackla: Nose: Smooth vanilla sweetness with soft notes of creamy coconut and ripe honeydew melon, lifted by gentle hints of cinnamon and star anise.

Distilled on 12th July 2000 and matured for two decades in a refill puncheon, this double cask expression was finished in a Tokaji (white wine) cask from 12th August 2021, chosen and overseen personally by Royal Brackla's Malt Master, Stephanie Macleod.
Royal Brackla holds a unique place in whisky history as the first single malt ever granted a Royal Warrant, earning it the name "The King's Own Whisky." Founded in 1812 by Captain William Fraser, the distillery's Highland character has always leaned toward the elegant and the fruit-driven, qualities this cask brings fully into focus.
The Tokaji finish draws on Hungary's celebrated dessert wine tradition, known for its botrytis-affected grapes and concentrated, honeyed sweetness. That influence shows clearly here: ripe peaches and apricots up front, mellowed by frangipane and a soft, lingering note of coconut.
This is a double cask bottling from a single distillation date. 258 bottles exist worldwide, and there's no second batch behind this specific cask pairing.Tasting Note by Royal Brackla:Deliciously supple with ripe peaches and apricots, mellowed with fragipane and soft coconut.

In the Craigellachie Cask Finishing Collection, one can find the Craigellachie 13 Year Old Bas-Armagnac Cask, a unique addition that pays homage to their traditional worm tubs. Casks from producers of oak-aged spirits who also employ worm tubs have been sourced to create this distinctive offering. The inaugural release in this collection showcases the award-winning 13-year-old Craigellachie Single Malt, artfully finished in Bas-Armagnac casks originating from the northernmost region of Gascony, France. This distinctive finishing process adds a roundness to the robust Craigellachie character. Initially, the whisky matures in ex-Bourbon and ex-Sherry casks before undergoing a resting period of just over a year in Bas-Armagnac casks. Staying true to their commitment to quality, all Craigellachie expressions remain non-chill filtered, devoid of caramel colouring, and are bottled at a respectable 46% ABV.
Established in 1898 on the banks of the Pitilie Burn in the Scottish Highlands, Aberfeldy was built by John Dewar and Sons at a site chosen for the exceptional purity of its local water source, a burn celebrated for the traces of gold carried in its waters from the surrounding hills. The 12 Year Old is the accessible entry point into the distillery's core range, matured in handcrafted oak casks combining American oak ex-Bourbon and Sherry influences that work in harmony to develop Aberfeldy's characteristic honeyed richness and luxurious mouthfeel.
Twelve years in wood imparts a natural golden hue, a full-bodied texture and a layered complexity that rewards both the newcomer and the more experienced collector. Its exceptional quality has been recognised with a Platinum Medal and Double Gold at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition 2025, alongside a Bronze Medal at the International Wine and Spirit Competition 2024. Whether served neat, over ice or as the foundation for a premium whisky cocktail, this is a Highland single malt of genuine versatility and consistent quality, and a reliable and well-regarded gift for any occasion.
Tasting Note by Aberfeldy: Scented with spiced and honeyed plump fruits and syrupy with lots of vanilla, fudge and just a whisper of smoke on the finish.
Aberfeldy Distillery sits in the foothills of the Central Highlands, on the banks of the River Tay, and has been producing single malt since 1898. This 25 Year Old is a limited release bottled to mark the distillery's 125th anniversary, representing Aberfeldy's house style at its most refined, spending over two decades in refill hogsheads and refill butts before being finished for more than a year in first-fill Oloroso sherry casks, a final stage that adds depth, richness and warming spice to the distillery's characteristically honeyed and fruit-driven spirit.
Bottled at 46% ABV, the expression delivers the kind of complexity and refinement that only extended maturation can produce. A genuinely rare commemorative release, it is an exceptional addition to any serious whisky collection and a fitting tribute to 125 years of Highland craftsmanship at Aberfeldy.
Tasting Note by Aberfeldy:Luxuriously succulent. With notes of Highland honey, wild strawberries and ripe peaches warmed by the sun, the aroma builds with cocoa powder, creamy caramel and warming cinnamon. On the palate, delicate fruit rests on a malty, cereal base, with a hint of vanilla coffee and a long, satisfying finish.
Distilled and matured at the Glenfiddich Distillery in Dufftown, Speyside, this 23 Year Old forms part of the distillery's prestigious Grand Series, a collection that represents the upper tier of the Glenfiddich range. Founded in 1887 by William Grant and still family owned today, Glenfiddich brings over a century of Speyside craft to each expression in the series. The Grand Cru is among the most refined of these, combining an extended maturation with a finishing cask of considerable distinction.
Twenty-three years of maturation in American and European oak casks establishes a deep and well-integrated character before the whisky is transferred to rare French cuvée casks for its finishing period. These casks, associated with some of the finest sparkling wine production in France, introduce a delicate brightness and an elegant structural lift that sets this expression apart from more conventional Speyside releases. Presented in a striking black and gold bottle befitting its position within the Grand Series, the Grand Cru is a compelling choice for the collector and an exceptional gift for occasions that warrant something genuinely special.
Tasting Note by Glenfiddich:Nose: Apple blossom, freshly baked bread and candied lemon.Palate: Layers of rich vanilla oak, sweet brioche, sandalwood, pear sorbet and white grape.Finish: Long, opulent and sweet.
The Reserva PX represents one of the most intensely flavoured expressions in the Glencadam range, shaped decisively by the Pedro Ximénez Sherry butts sourced from Andalucía, Spain, in which it receives its final maturation. Produced at Glencadam's historic distillery in Brechin, Angus — in operation since 1825 — this small-batch release draws on single malt selected by the Master Distiller from the distillery's dunnage warehouses, where years of ex-bourbon maturation have laid a rich and fruited foundation for the PX cask to work upon.
Pedro Ximénez is among the most intensely sweet and concentrated of all sherry styles, and its influence here is profound — drawing out dark fruit, baking spice and confected richness that places this expression firmly at the indulgent end of the Glencadam spectrum. The result is a whisky of considerable depth and complexity, bottled unchillfiltered at natural colour. A collection-worthy release and a compelling gift for those who favour richness and character in their single malt. Glencadam Reserva PX Cask Finish was awarded the Best Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky (2024)!The Judging Panel described the whisky as showing; ‘Perfumed aroma with raspberry and blackcurrant jams and nutmeg. The complex palate features toffee, caramel, stewed apples, dates, nutmeg, and cinnamon.’

Founded in 1892 by William Grant in Dufftown at the heart of Speyside, The Balvenie is one of Scotland's most craft-committed distilleries, operating its own floor maltings, cooperage and coppersmith team on site. The distillery's approach to whisky making places the marriage of individual casks at the very centre of its philosophy, a discipline that demands patience, skill and an exceptional depth of sensory knowledge. Honorary Ambassador and former Malt Master David C. Stewart MBE, whose career at The Balvenie spans more than half a century, has elevated the art of the tun marriage to a level few in the industry can match.
The Balvenie Twenty-Five brings together individual casks of American oak and European oak matured for a quarter of a century before being married by David C. Stewart into a single expression of extraordinary depth and balance. The combination of two distinct oak characters, each shaped over decades by the Speyside climate and the character of the distillery's own spirit, produces a whisky of intricate complexity that rewards careful attention. Bottled at 48% ABV to preserve the full weight and richness of the marriage, this is a serious collector's expression and a genuinely rare gift for an occasion that demands something truly memorable.
Tasting Note by Balvenie:Nose: Soft autumn fruits, runny honey, crystallised ginger and raw sugar cane. An underlying rich oakiness creates complexity and structure.Palate: The initial bold vanilla oak flavours slowly dissipate to reveal layers of toasted marshmallows, fresh fruit and cinnamon infused apple tart.Finish: Exceptionally long-lasting sweetness
Bunnahabhain distilled this whisky in 1999. Ten years later, it was moved into an Amontillado sherry cask, then Oloroso, then Manzanilla — three casks applied in sequence rather than simultaneously, each one following the last. Seven years of sequential finishing followed the initial ten years of maturation, for twenty-three years total.
Bunnahabhain is one of the few distilleries on Islay producing unpeated whisky. This bottle carries no peat. It is bottled at cask strength, 53.3%, non-chill filtered, with no added colour.
This release is one of 4,002 individually numbered bottles from the Feis Île 2024 release, Bunnahabhain's annual festival bottling. It is not part of the distillery's standard core range.
Tasting Note by Bunnahabhain:Nose: Freshly baked almond pastries are met with sweet berries, creamy fudge, rose petals and a hint of desiccated coconut.Palate: Fresh vanilla pods, butterscotch and creamy strawberries are balanced with honeyed cashews, wood spice and a gentle hint of tobacco.Finish: Dry finish with pine needles and blackcurrants
The latest addition to Bunnahabhain's core range, this inaugural 30-year-old batch is a testament to our craft. It matures exclusively in coastal ex-sherry casks, remains unaltered with non-chill filtration and natural colour, resulting in a rich, sweet dram.
Three decades of patience and meticulous care, shaped by Bunnahabhain Bay's salty air, go into crafting this whisky under our Distillery Manager's watchful eye. It offers notes of strawberries, cream, honey nut cereals, rich toffee, and a finish of salted caramel and light spices. This is a limited first batch release that's not to be missed.
Tasting Note by Bunnahabhain:Nose: Aromas of butterscotch, beeswax and sweet sherry.Palate: Strawberries and cream dominate the palate, gradually developing into honey nut cereals and an abundance of rich toffee.Finish: Notes of sweetened Jamaican coffee and oak wood.
Distilled and matured at the Glenfiddich Distillery in Dufftown, at the heart of Speyside, this 21 year old expression represents one of the most distinctive releases in the distillery's core range. Founded in 1887 by William Grant, Glenfiddich remains family owned and is one of the most celebrated single malt producers in Scotland. Two decades of patient maturation in traditional oak casks allows the distillery's signature character to develop fully before Malt Master Brian Kinsman hand selects individual barrels for the final stage.
Those selected casks are transferred into Caribbean reserva rum casks for a finishing period that introduces a layer of tropical warmth and spice to the established Speyside foundation. The result is a whisky of considerable complexity, balancing the restrained richness of a long Speyside maturation with the more animated character that rum cask finishing imparts. At 40% ABV, it is approachable without sacrificing depth, and presents exceptionally well as a gift or a considered addition to a maturing collection.
Tasting Note by Glenfiddich:Nose: Intense and vanilla sweet. Floral, hints of banana, figs, rich toffee, new leather and oak.Palate: Initially soft, then brisk, vibrant and drying, peppery, a touch of smoke, oak, lime, ginger and spices.Finish: Very long, warming, dry and spicy.
Situated on a 485-acre estate on the banks of the River Spey in Craigellachie, The Macallan is one of Speyside's most distinguished distilleries, with a history stretching back to 1824. The distillery's famously small, curiously shaped stills produce a robust and fruity new make spirit that is ideally suited to long maturation in quality oak, and it is the cask, above all else, that defines The Macallan's house philosophy. Every bottle in the Sherry Oak Collection carries entirely natural colour, a commitment that speaks directly to the integrity of the maturation process and the quality of the casks selected.
The Sherry Oak 12 Year Old is matured for a minimum of twelve years on The Macallan Estate, predominantly in sherry seasoned European oak casks prepared in Jerez de la Frontera, Spain. It is widely regarded as the definitive entry point into The Macallan's classic style, offering the full expression of what sherry seasoned European oak imparts to a long-matured Speyside spirit: deep natural colour, dried fruit richness, warming spice and genuine complexity. For those seeking a thoughtful and widely admired gift, or a foundational bottle for a developing collection, the Sherry Oak 12 Year Old consistently delivers.
Tasting Notes by The Macallan:Nose: Dried fruit, candied citrus peel and oak with notes of ginger and nutmeg.Palate: Raisins and sultanas with ginger syrup, a touch of sweet cinnamon spice and a hint of vanilla.Finish: Long with oak and warming ginger.
Founded in 1897 beside the River Spey and revived in 2012 by Ian Macleod Distillers, Tamdhu has maintained an unwavering commitment to 100% Oloroso sherry cask maturation across its entire range. The 21 Year Old is the oldest expression in the core collection, matured in a combination of first-fill and refill American and European oak Oloroso sherry casks sourced directly from Jerez, Spain, where over two decades the Speyside spirit develops a balance of sweetness, dryness and deep sherry oak richness that defines this limited release.
Bottled at 47.5% ABV without chill-filtration and at natural colour, the 21 Year Old was awarded Whisky of the Year, Gold Winner in the Over £100 category, and Distillery Bottling of the Year 2025 at the Scottish Field Whisky Challenge Grand Final, a remarkable sweep that confirms its standing as one of the most accomplished long-aged sherried single malts available today. Presented in a premium gift box, it is an exceptional choice for collectors and a fitting centrepiece for any serious whisky occasion.
Tasting Notes by Tamdhu:Nose: Wisps of sherried oak with chocolate, sultanas and warm cinnamon porridge.Palate: Christmas cake of plump raisins, candied orange and gentle oak.Finish: Endless waves of oak and spice finally give way to sweet fruit.
Matured exclusively in hand-selected American oak ex-bourbon barrels, Tomintoul 10 Years Old is a delicately well-balanced single malt.

Tasting Note by Tomintoul:Nose: Delicate and floral with aromas of acacia honey, vanilla, wholemeal toast and mellow wood spices. Palate: Sweet and honeyed with layers of creme caramel and toasted almond with highlights of lemon zest and a grassy freshness.

An annual limited edition from The Dalmore, matured first in American white oak ex-bourbon casks for a soft base of vanilla and honey, then finished in 30-year-old Matusalem Oloroso sherry casks — supplied exclusively to The Dalmore by the González Byass bodega in Spain. No other distillery has access to this cask condition.
The finishing casks rest in the cold, damp dunnage warehouses at The Dalmore Distillery, allowing the whisky to develop its full character: a rich, deep chocolate depth layered over the bourbon-cask foundation.

The Balvenie French Oak stands as a vibrant single malt whisky that has undergone a finishing period in casks previously cradling wine sourced from the renowned French Charentes vineyards.
Pineau des Charentes, a fortified wine, is crafted by blending unfermented grape juice with Cognac eau-de-vie, followed by a maturation process. This distinctive wine is also crafted as a homemade product in the neighboring Deau-Sevres and Vendee regions.
The inspiration for this exploration into French Oak casks came from a suggestion by The Balvenie USA brand ambassador, Lorne Cousin. He urged Malt Master David C. Stewart MBE to consider these casks after a visit to the region with his family, where he fondly remembered savoring an aperitif.
This release marks The Balvenie's initial foray into the realm of French Oak. Pineau, resembling Cognac both in production and flavor, allows them to leverage the growing popularity of this flavor profile, complemented by its premium standing.
Tasting Note by Balvenie:Nose: Beautifully balanced light floral notes from lotus and geranium flowers dance between hints of fresh meadow grass and pealed apple skin.Palate: An energising zing from tangy lemon rind and grapefruit meet the delicate subtle sweetness of glazed fruits and spice from root ginger.Finish: Refreshingly concise.
Part of Aberfeldy's Exceptional Cask Series, this 22 Year Old White Port Cask Finish is a double cask limited edition personally selected by Malt Master Stephanie Macleod from the distillery's maturing stock. Filled in November 2001 and transferred to White Port casks in July 2022, it represents one of just 276 bottles — a genuinely rare opportunity to experience Aberfeldy's celebrated honeyed Highland character in a form that will not be repeated.
Aberfeldy Distillery was established in 1898 in Perthshire, drawing process water from the Pitilie Burn, a source long associated with alluvial gold deposits and renowned for its purity. Distilled in alembic copper pot stills crafted by Forsyths, the distillery produces a fruity, richly honeyed style that has long defined its reputation as the Golden Dram. Here, that character has spent the majority of its life in refill hogsheads and refill barrels before finishing in White Port casks, which have lent a bright stone fruit lift and delicate floral freshness to the whisky's deep, honeyed foundation. Bottled at natural cask strength of 51.7% without chill-filtration, this is a collector's release of considerable distinction.
Tasting Note by Aberfeldy:Delightful interplay of ripe peaches, nectarines and apricots , subtle vanilla undertones slowly emerge, with a zest of orange peel and delicate spices adding a layer of warmth, the cask finish perfectly accentuating the honeyed notes of Aberfeldy.
In terms of cask types, it begins its maturation journey in a blend of ex-Bourbon and ex-Sherry casks. Then, 50% of the blend undergoes further refinement in first-fill Sherry casks, while the remainder is aged in first-fill Bourbon casks.
Notably, all Craigellachie expressions uphold a steadfast commitment to quality: they are non-chill filtered, free from caramel coloring, and bottled at a respectable 46% ABV. For those seeking a whisky of character and authenticity, Craigellachie is a notable choice.
Tasting Note by Craigellachie: The scents of oozing toasted marshmallows, fire-roasted pineapples, and baked apples sprinkled with cloves, along with the tang of cordite lingering in the background, make Craigellachie 13 Year Old remind one of Bonfire Night.
Being the original member of Bunnahabhain's current Core Range, the Bunnahabhain 12 Year Old occupies a special place in their hearts. It was first introduced in 1979, and its longevity of nearly four decades owes much to the dedication and commitment of the distillery team, as well as the affection and support from fans and friends worldwide.
This 12 year old expression has established the standard and tone for the rest of their collection, demanding nothing but excellence. It undergoes a double maturation process in Ex Bourbon and Ex Sherry Casks, resulting in a whisky of exquisite richness and full-bodied character, striking the ideal equilibrium between Bunnahabhain's distinctive nutty and sherry notes.
Tasting Note by Bunnahabhain:Nose: Fresh and aromatic, fruity floral with hints of dried fruit and a subtle prevalence of smoke.Palate: Light with fruit notes, nutty flavours with a sweetness and slight hints of vanilla and caramel.Finish: Lingering, beautifully rich and full-bodied.
The Bowmore 18 Year Old Sherry Cask presents a well-balanced interplay between bright citrus notes and the soft, recognisable presence of the distillery’s signature peat. Matured in carefully chosen ex-Bourbon and Oloroso Sherry casks, and finished in Pedro Ximénez Sherry wood, this expression is marked by both depth and composure. Its maturation journey brings together varied fruit tones and gentle peat, resulting in a whisky that is at once expressive and measured, with a layered complexity that reflects Bowmore’s distinctive character.
Tasting Note by Bowmore:Nose: A sweet symphony of rich dark chocolate and cocoa beans, with zesty citrus and a rich peatiness.Palate: Sensationally layered orange peel, moist sultanas, aniseed spice, and cocoa beans.Finish: Powerfully and expressively fruity, with immense depth and complexity.
The Aberfeldy 21 Year Old Argentinian Malbec Cask Finish is the result of a remarkable collaboration between Malt Master Stephanie Macleod and award-winning winemaker Daniel Pi of Finca Ambrosia, one of Argentina's most prestigious estates. Having travelled to the Uco Valley in Argentina, Stephanie personally selected Malbec casks from Finca Ambrosia to bring an entirely new dimension to the Aberfeldy character — a partnership between two masters of their craft that has produced something genuinely distinctive within the distillery's wine cask series.
Aberfeldy Distillery was established in 1898 in Perthshire, drawing process water from the gold-laced Pitilie Burn and producing a fruity, richly honeyed Highland single malt in alembic copper pot stills crafted by Forsyths. Here, 21 years of patient maturation have been completed by a finishing period in Malbec wine casks, which lend vivid red fruit character, gentle floral notes and a subtle tartness that sits in elegant balance with the distillery's signature honeyed sweetness. Bottled at 46% ABV, this limited edition release is as well suited to the collector as it is to the enthusiast seeking something beyond the expected.
Tasting Note by Aberfeldy: Evolving aromas of juicy strawberries glazed with sweet Highland honey, gently brightened by hints of fresh blackcurrant. This bouquet gives way to delicate floral notes of rose and violet, underscored by a subtle touch of warming cinnamon spice. On the palate, vibrant fruit flavours come alive, gracefully melting into creamy vanilla and concluding with a wonderfully smooth, lingering finish.
The Original Cask Strength is Laphroaig in its purest form, delivering the full power of Islay’s land, sea and air. Matured for 10 years in charred American oak barrels, this expression is drawn directly from the cask, barrier-filtered only to remove char particles. It is unchill-filtered and bottled at natural strength, showcasing the distillery’s uncompromising character.
Batch 16 stands as the most powerful release in the Cask Strength family. Bottled at 58.5% ABV, it balances peat smoke and maritime salinity with layers of sweet orchard fruit, vanilla, spice, and the oily richness that defines Laphroaig.

Drú is a cask strength single malt from the Indian brand Indri, distilled and matured in bourbon casks under the extreme temperatures of India's northern plains. The name 'Drú' originates from Sanskrit, meaning wood, tree, or a wooden vessel, which ties back to ancient mythology where Dru was a vessel used to collect 'soma' for the Gods. This whisky, bottled at 57.2% ABV without any added colour or chill-filtering, retains the robust flavours shaped by its unique cask profile and ageing conditions.
Tasting Note by Indri: Nose: Whiff of mixed fruit basket, vanilla, subtle citrus hints, gentle spice, chocolate and honey tones expressing robust nose profile.Palate: Sweetish fruity forward taste with, soft spice followed immediately with sweet vanilla, hint of chocolate with wood lactones and citrus appearing from the back of the palate.Finish: Fuller bodies, complex with mixed fruit finish that is fairly long, chewable and salivating dram.

Established in 1826 in the sheltered Valley of Forgue in the Scottish Highlands, The GlenDronach Distillery is one of Scotland's most storied and consistently sherry-focused producers. Founded by James Allardice, the distillery has maintained an unwavering commitment to traditional methods for nearly two centuries, producing a characterful, full-bodied spirit that is ideally suited to extended maturation in wood. That continuity of craft and place gives each expression a depth of provenance that rewards both the curious newcomer and the seasoned collector.
The 12 Year Old is matured exclusively in Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso sherry casks, each sourced from the bodegas of Andalucía in southern Spain. This dual-cask approach is the cornerstone of GlenDronach's richly sherried house style, coaxing layer upon layer of dried fruit, spice, and oak character from the spirit over the course of twelve years. Presented in elegant packaging, this expression makes a refined and considered gift for anyone with an appreciation for traditionally crafted Highland single malt.
Tasting Note by GlenDronach:Nose: Sherried autumn fruits meld with smooth chocolate praline, gingerbread and sun-dried raisin.Palate: Caramelised bramble, silky orange and sultana envelope the palate with warming spice.
Founded in 1881 on the remote northern shore of Islay, Bunnahabhain sits at the end of a single-track road on the Sound of Islay, making it one of the most isolated and characterful distilleries in Scotland. Its unusually tall, pear-shaped stills with elongated swan necks produce a lighter, oilier spirit than its Islay neighbours, and the distillery is notably one of the few on the island to work with unpeated barley. Mineral-rich water drawn from the Margadale Spring, sea air rolling in off the Sound, and a philosophy of non-chill filtration without added colour define the Bunnahabhain house style across every expression.
Turas Math No.1 is the opening release in the Westering Home Collection, a three-part series rooted in the distillery's maritime heritage. The whisky is a marriage of two exceptional cask journeys, personally selected by Master Blender Julieann Fernandez. The first parcel was distilled in 2008 and spent its full 15 years maturing in Manzanilla Sherry casks from Jerez. The second parcel matured for a decade in refill casks before receiving a five-year finish in Amarone wine casks from the Veneto region of Italy. The union of these two paths produces a whisky of layered sweetness, coastal character and considered complexity, bottled at cask strength without chill-filtration or added colour. A compelling collector's release and an equally distinguished gift.
Tasting Note by Bunnahabhain:Nose: A burst of dark fruits including black cherries, plums, and blackberries, intertwined with cloves and roasted nuts.Palate: Fresh cinnamon pastries and treacle toffee blend with hazelnut, dried figs, and soft herbal notes.Finish: Warm spices linger on the palate, accented by a hint of sea spray.
Produced at Glengoyne Distillery on the Highland-Lowland boundary since 1883, this 12 Year Old is built on two defining principles: Scotland's slowest distillation process and the exclusive use of unpeated, air-dried barley. Together they produce a characteristically clean, fruit-forward spirit entirely free of smoke, certified vegan and sustainably produced.
Matured for twelve years in hand-selected sherry casks, the whisky develops richness and depth whilst retaining the distillery's natural openness and approachability. It has earned Gold Medals at the New York International Spirits Challenge 2025, the San Francisco World Spirits Competition 2024, and the International Spirits Challenge 2024, among a broader collection of international accolades.
Tasting Note by Glengoyne:Nose: Coconut oil, honey, lemon zest, dried oak.Palate: Toffee apples, cinnamon spice, ginger, orange, shortbread.Finish: A hint of sherry and soft oak. Very well balanced.
Initially matured in a combination of refill and hogshead casks, this Aberfeldy expression is finished in first-fill Sangiovese wine casks sourced from the Valdarno di Sopra region in Tuscany, Italy.
Cask finishing is a refined practice, where a whisky that has matured predominantly in one type of cask is transferred to another for a final period of ageing. This method is intended not to alter the distillery’s core character, but to enhance it—introducing new layers of flavour that work in harmony with Aberfeldy’s signature style.

Established in 1887 by William Grant in Dufftown, Speyside, Glenfiddich remains family-owned across five generations and has long paired its tradition of independent craft with a genuine spirit of experimentation. The distillery's Malt Master Brian Kinsman has overseen the development of expressions that push the boundaries of what Speyside single malt can offer, and the 14 Year Old Bourbon Barrel Reserve is one of the clearest demonstrations of his approach to cask management and finishing.
After fourteen years of maturation in ex-Bourbon American oak casks, which draw out the distillery's characteristic fresh fruit character alongside developing layers of vanilla and caramel sweetness, Kinsman transfers selected parcels to charred new American oak barrels for a final finishing period. The use of new wood at this stage, still unusual in Scotch whisky production, adds a deeper layer of toasted oak richness and spice that elevates the expression beyond a conventional Speyside profile. The result is a whisky with the freshness and fruit-forward quality Glenfiddich is known for, given additional weight and complexity by two distinct encounters with American oak. A distinctive Flagship Collection bottling and a well-considered gift for the whisky drinker who enjoys something a little off the beaten track.

Distilled at The Macallan Estate in Craigellachie on Speyside, one of Scotland's most celebrated whisky-producing regions, The Macallan has built its reputation over nearly two centuries on an unwavering commitment to exceptional oak cask maturation. The distillery's unique and patented Cask Tracking System follows every cask from cooperage to warehouse, ensuring complete chain of custody from the bodegas of Jerez de la Frontera in southern Spain through to the Speyside warehouses where the spirit quietly matures. That precision and provenance is the foundation upon which every expression in the range is built.
The Double Cask 12 Year Old is matured for a minimum of twelve years in a combination of sherry seasoned American oak and sherry seasoned European oak casks, both prepared at The Macallan's own cooperages and bodegas in Jerez. The American oak contributes its characteristic sweetness and vanilla freshness, whilst the European oak brings the deeper dried fruit and soft spice notes more familiar from the classic Sherry Oak style. The result, as conceived by Master Whisky Maker Kirsteen Campbell, is a harmonious and approachable expression that sits between the two principal collections in The Macallan range. Bottled at natural colour with no added caramel, it presents beautifully and makes a highly regarded gift for any occasion.

Established in 1887 by William Grant in Dufftown, Speyside, Glenfiddich remains family-owned across five generations and is widely credited with pioneering the single malt category as the world came to know it. The distillery draws its water from the Robbie Dhu spring in the Conval Hills, a source William Grant identified and insisted upon from the very beginning, and that same Highland spring water continues to define the character of every expression produced here today. The high cut point Grant established for the distillation process, which captures only the lightest and most delicate part of the spirit, is the foundation of Glenfiddich's distinctively fresh and fruity house style.
The 12 Year Old is the entry point into the Flagship Collection and one of the most recognised single malts in the world, yet its reputation rests on genuine quality rather than familiarity alone. Twelve years of maturation in a combination of American and European oak casks allows the fresh, fruit-forward character of the new make spirit to develop into something balanced and approachable, with the subtle influence of oak adding depth without ever overwhelming the distillery's signature lightness.
