The Revival is the first expression released from Glenglassaugh distillery after being mothballed for more than 20 years. The Glenglassaugh Revival has been matured in a balanced mix of ex-red wine and fresh bourbon casks, vatted and re-racked for double maturation in rich sherry casks. Bottled at 46%, non-chill filtered and of natural color, Revival is a stunning Highland single malt with coastal charm.

Colour: Copper

Nose: Sweet caramel and toffee with notes of nutty sherry, milk chocolate and honey. Ripe plums, red berries, and oranges. Caramelized sugar and earthy, charred oak.

Palate: Sweet, rounded and creamy. Oranges, plums, cherry and walnuts, chocolate, honey-mead, sherry, and soft, spiced oak.

Finish: Medium with warming mulled-wine spices, sherry, and caramel.

This latest release from the Knockdhu distillery has been selected from American oak and sherry casks after 18 years of maturation. This is a heavier dram, with the sherry casks bringing a dried fruit, chocolate and ripe orange flavour and aroma to the classic notes of vanilla, honey and summer fruits. The aftertaste is full of spices and is distinctily peppery and warming.

One of our favourite whiskies - it's what we like to refer to as a "perfect allrounder". There's no doubt it's a sherried whisky - ageing for 12 years in refill sherry butts, but there's a delicious hint of peat in there too. It's the type of whisky that everyone enjoys.Colour: Vibrant amber gold.Nose:????Fresh and beautifully light, sherried fruit combined with a tempting spicy sweetness and a hint of sappy oak.?Palate:??Full bodied, delightful sherried fruit, with oak, a hint of peat and delicious sweet sensations.?FYI - this litre price is cheaper than the 700ml (which was $93 when we had it!)

Scotch from this distillery has always formed a large blending component in Dewar's blended whisky but a range of age statements such as this one were launched in 2014.

This is a tropical fruit bomb with complexed by savoury meats and a touch of smoke.

Casg Annamh means 'rare cask' in Gaelic.  This expression is significantly influenced by the finest quality, hand-selected Oloroso Sherry casks.  The liquid is matured in three types of casks; European oak Sherry casks and two different types of American oak casks resulting in a rich and intense whisky.

The whisky that kicks off the Glenlivet range, one of the oldest and most reputable distilleries in Speyside. Named in honour of the distillery's founder, George Smith. It's classic Glenlivet, with a creamy and fruity character bolstered by the use of first-fill American oak to mature some of the whisky.

This gift box comes with two branded glasses.

Nose: Imagine yourself in an Italian garden surrounded with mandarin, lemon, apple, pear and peach trees, their fruit ripening in the sun. Add to this the scent of vanilla ice cream, then enjoy the herbal aromas of geranium and wild mint growing nearby

Palate:  Savour the fruits of the Italian garden as creamy vanilla slips like liquid silk over the tongue as peaches and cream, mandarins and lemons effervesce in the mouth.Aromatic essences of fennel and nutmeg tantalise with crumbly almond and coconut that gives way to a nectar that envelops all the fruit, spice and nut flavours in a honeyed caress 

Finish:  The charming sweetness of delicious juices is left on the tongue.

Nose:  Complex, with distinctive butterscotch and sherried fruit.  

Flavour:  Big, full-flavoured, with excellent balance, develops slowly, full of sherry sweet malty tones.

This beautifully bronze gold malt was bottled at 48% and first aged in the finest American Oak Wood Barrels for over nine years before being re-racked into Moscatel Barriques. The second maturation period enriches the flavour, creating a fruitier style of whisky with a very vivid and aromatic nose, typical of the muscat grape.

From Batch 2 of the GlenAllachie Wood Finish Range.

The Lasanta was extramatured in Spanish Oloroso sherry casks following a minimum of ten years inex-bourbon casks. In Gaelic, ?Lasanta?means ?warmth and passion?, and this refers to the key notes of toffee, raisinsand walnuts.

Distilled back in June 2007 and left to mature in a single refill hogshead for the following 12 years. When April 2020 came about, the single malt was independently bottled for Douglas Laing's Old Particular range.

On the nose there is aromas of barley with sweet cereals, puff candy and lashings of chantilly cream.

Spicey ginger and cinnamon on the palate, with toasted barley, mixed nuts and orange peel.

More spice on the finish, with dry oak, coconut and heather.

Of all the distilleries in Diageo's portfolio, Glen Spey is the third smallest and remains one of the most obscure. Virtually all of its output goes into blends, in particular, J&B (which at the time of writing is the sixth biggest whisky brand in the world). Douglas Laing have bottled this rarity from a single refill hogshead REF - DL13903. Aromas of nutmeg and cinnamon arrive with a citrus zest while the palate promises strawberry candy, spiced oak, coconut shavings and milk chocolate.
