One-shot distillation ensures every drop contacts the Portuguese alembic copper still. The result is a soft and thoroughly drinkable gin.
Light juniper with fresh apple and a delicate citrus flavour, balanced perfectly by a subtle sweetness and distinctive creamy notes.
An outstanding bourbon from Kentucky Distillers. Handmade in very small batches and aged in charred oak barrels, this has a very smooth, rounded character with lovely spicy, fruity flavours.
A grain whisky that’s only a pot still away from being a single malt
A grain whisky made only from malt? That’s also smoky?
The majority of Experimental Grain Whisky is comprised of grains from the Cameronbridge and North British distilleries. They bring notes of fudge, vanilla and set honey. On top of this the younger whisky from Loch Lomond layers impressions of pine forests and patchouli oil.
To create the top expression White Heather 21 Years, Walker sourced single malt whisky from Speyside (23%, GlenAllachie I presume), the Highlands (20%) and Islay (4%). This was combined with 53% grain whisky.
The spirit spent 18 years in a combination of first-fill American barrels, sherry butts and second fill casks. The married composition was then given an additional three years in PX and Oloroso puncheons alongside Appalachian virgin oak casks.
A quality blend. It’s harmonious, reasonably complex and it manages to hide the grain component. The resulting whisky, which is presented at 48% ABV with no added colouring or chill-filtration, perfectly balances gentle peat from the Islay contribution, archetypal Speyside fruity notes, the heather honeyed sweetness of the Highlands, and a rich and rounded foundation from the grain components.
Unique union of the single and double distillation, Mémoire X.O. is made from calvados of at least 15 years. After being aged separately, the selected eaux-de-vie have acquired a common memory in oak barrels for long years. The cellar master has put his mastery in creating a delicate and distinguished composition with powerful notes of apple and candied fruits.
It is characterized by a perfect balance between the fruitiness of the apple and the aromas brought by over 9 years of ageing in century-old oak barrels. The double distillation confers aromatic complexity and an exceptional palate length.
Matured at least 12 years in oak barrels. Single distillation. Colour : Deep golden brown. Scent : Fresh hazelnut, banana and spices aromas, a perfect balance between wood and matured apple aromas. Palate : Fine and silky. Use : A smooth harmony with dessert, chocolate cream, nougat or ice-cream.
The V.S.O.P. differentiates itself by a selection of apple ciders exclusively harvested in the Pays d’Auge region, a delimited terroir representing only 6% of the Normandy region. The typicity that the soil confers to the apple coupled with a double distillation in pot stills give the V.S.O.P. a rich and long palate.
FINE V.S. is a fresh and fruity Calvados. Unlike others, it is made from single continuous distillation in copper stills to concentrate the apple aromas. These are then accentuated by blending the fruitiest cuvées and ageing them in barrels made of century-old oak.
This is a harmonious and utterly charming Cardhu, its aromas fruity and meadow- sweet, its taste sweet, luscious and well rounded, accented by a striking and unusual perfumed note.
This lovely, mature old single vintage Lagavulin, our first 26 year-old Special Release, perfectly expresses the rich first-fill Pedro Ximenez/Oloroso cask style and is quite delicious, sure in the knowledge that its balance and smooth tastes have been shaped and respected by the decades. 7,542 numbered bottles.
This Scottish island gin combines ten carefully chosen botanicals, including Raasay juniper, rhubarb root, sweet orange peel and our triple distilled spirit. The result is dry, zesty and refreshingly smooth.
