Palate: Fresh Spanish oranges, gentle and light spice with a toasted Malt quality.
Finish: Medium-long with more spices, plus orange zest with a perfectly dry finish (CGL).
Adelphi's Private stock is a blend of whiskies selected by one of Scotland's most famed independent bottlers. This is a smooth dram with plenty of honeyed sweetness from Spey and Highland malts, a touch of sea-side maritime notes from a coastal distillery and a gentle peat-fire smokyness in the background. A very traditional and old-fashioned flavoured blend that belongs in any whisky drinker's cupboard."
This gem from Islay displays a delicate peat smoke but also has a lovely fruity flavour and a cracking meaty finish, highlighting the characteristic you?d expect from a peaty Islay dram and more.

This is the 5th Glover in the series and all derives from 1st fill bourbon barrels. 2 from AD & 2 from Chichibu. This whisky has a lovely colour of summer gold. On the nose we found honeycomb, melon, clementine, panatone, flaky almonds & Sour Plooms. The palate delivers a great balance of pineapple cake, mandarin and barley juice & lemon bonbons. Becoming maritime with a light peat smoke to finish, very moreish.
Blair Athol distillery sits in the picturesque town of Pitlochry right in the middle of the Highlands of Scotland. An old distillery, it produces a classic highland style which is heavy in body, and nutty and spicy in flavour. This Blair Athol was filled from a butt which previously contained Olorosso Sherry and after such a long maturation is very full and rich.
Nose: Fruity and herbal, with stewed prunes, black tea, and caramel.
Palate: Pleasantly spicy with nutmeg, ginger and cocoa powder.
Finish: Long with all the complexity in a dram matured for a quarter of a century.
Bruichladdich isn't commonly released by independent bottlers such as Douglas Laing making this all the more collectable.
This bottling was distilled in October 1991 and bottled at 26 years old in November 2017 for the Xtra Old Particular range. It's packed with the citrus fruit, florals and honey character that made the distillery famous before it's 2000 revival (after closing in 1995).
One refill Hogshead - DL12259
This superb 44 year old Lowland single grain Scotch whisky was laid to rest in April 1976 at the Caledonian distillery, which was sadly closed in 1988, then specially bottled for Douglas Laing's Xtra Old Particular series in April 2020.
Yielded from refill hogshead number DL13925 at a natural strength 52.8% ABV, this is one of just 218 hand-filled bottles that comes complete with glass stopper decanter, fine wooden presentation case and COA.
Attractively spiced as it opens on the nose - running to molasses, muscovado sugar and cereal.
Detect very similar robust tastes on the palate - dark spices in particular with a vanilla based finish, all wonderfully dulcet (FHL).
A bottling of long-aged grain whisky that's special enough to have earned a place in Douglas Laing's Xtra Old Particular series. Aged in a single refil hogshead (DL13717), this abounds with notes of vanilla, rich caramel and dried apricot.
Carsebridge was closed in 1983, just seven years after this whisky was distilled.
Sweetly waxed immediately on the nose with cedar wood, rose water and hard candy
Palatewise there is early ginger biscuit and burnt orange followed by treacle toffee and toasted marshmallow - All neatly replicated on the rather "homebaked" finish (FHL).
Located on the Isle of Mull, the Tobermory distillery was founded in 1798. Renamed Ledaig in 1972 when it reopened after 42 years of closure, it was closed again in 1975 before reopening under the name Tobermory in 1989.
It produces two single malts, one unpeated, Tobermory, the other peaty (between 30 and 40 ppm of phenols), Ledaig. To develop the latter, the distillery obtains its barley from the Port Ellen malt house.
This version matured in Bordeaux wine barrels shows us a very gourmet side of this distillery, marked by notes of black fruits, ash and sweet spices.
Part of SV?s explorative trilogy of wine barrel-aged expressions.
