A delicious smokey and salty single malt from Islay's Caol Ila distillery. Smokey and salty on the nose almost reminiscent of smoked salmon. Jammy vanilla fruit flavours with roasted chestnuts and burnt thyme with a little brown sugar sweetness. That Boutique-y Whisky Company was founded to bring forgotten drams from some of the world's best distilleries to the whisky-craving masses. Their limited edition labels are hand illustrated and designed with a nod towards whimsicality, often incorporating whisky industry 'in jokes'.

Balanced, rich and elegant, The Glenlivet 18 Year Old single malt scotch whisky that’s made for special occasions. Over the course of 18 years, our Master Distiller, Alan Winchester, takes this expression through a combination of cask types, including both first and second-fill American oak (for tropical fruitiness) and ex-sherry oak (for spicy complexity). The result of this deft navigation of the distilling arts is a gorgeous single malt scotch whisky that is complex, yet elegant and balanced. The Glenlivet 18 Year Old has won more awards than any other expression; every bottle is a true example of the quality and taste of The Glenlivet and deserves pride of place in your cabinet… perhaps to be held back for a fitting occasion? It is, after all, crafted to impress. Flavour: Ripe citrus, winter spice. Nose: Rich fruit, toffee

“The elemental opposite of the sophisticated Lord of the Isles.” Perched on a wave washed, rocky headland, the Ardbeg distillery was founded in 1815 by the MacDougalls of Ardbeg. The distilleries scattered white washed buildings are reminiscent of a Dutch settlement and add to the dramatic coastal landscape. Ardbeg has had a chequered history and in recent times had been closed down for many years. Glenmorangie acquired Ardbeg in 1997 and has set about restoring the distillery to its former glory. First launched in 2003, “Uigeadail” (the loch from which all Ardbeg water flows) this cask strength, heavily peated Ardbeg is produced from a mix of bourbon casks and older sherry casks. The combination gives this whisky a velvety texture, with a sweet and smokey finish. Tasting notes: Bright gold appearance. Big, sweet sherry influenced nose offers dried apricot and marmalade scents over menthol and sweet cedar smoke. Some ripe green apple notes emerge with time in the glass. The palate is off dry with a rich, dark chocolate entry becoming heavier and fudge-like with orange chocolate, sweet cereal and the peat continually reinventing itself - at once dry and sooty, then tarry and finally kippery on the finish. Excellent balance at cask strength. Boiled lolly and spice aftertaste with a subtle spearmint fade. Latest batch tasted October 2010.

Established in 1815, Ardbeg is one of Islay's nine active distilleries and embodies the true spirit of Scotland's most southerly Inner Hebridean Islands. Battered over the centuries by the rugged Scottish waves, Ardbeg produce some of the most powerful yet perfectly balanced whiskies. The Uigeadail is named for the loch that Arbeg source their all their pure water from and produces a strong, peat driven whiskey with notes of smoke, leather, dried fruits and walnut oil. Courtesy of maturation in both old bourbon and sherry casks, the Ardbeg Uigeadail has a flavour of Christmas pudding, glazed smoked ham with a burst of clove-driven spice on the finish. Destined to be very limited and a must have for all fans of Islay and Ardbeg. <p><b>Please note: Limit of 1 bottle per customer</b>
