Blanton's trademark bottle shape and iconic horse and jockey are a symbol of years of exceptional quality. Their Gold Edition was created for the discerning connoisseur who appreciates exceptional smoothness and clean finish in their bourbon whiskey. The rich taste of dark chocolate fudge, citrus rind, oak and subtle cream notes are combined with the spiciness of pepper and rye leading to an incredibly long finish that challenges the worlds finest single malts and rarest cognacs in complexity and character. Best served neat or with a splash of water.

Single cask malt whisky from Overeem in Tasmania aged in a French Oak Sherry quarter cask. This smaller cask leads to greater interaction between wood and liquid during maturation and results in a more intense whisky.

Over half of Scotlands malt whisky distilleries are found on Speyside, and Dufftown distillery is at the centre of this fertile region, caught between mountains, rivers and sea.

Soft, inviting, dry and autumnal nose. Light to medium body, softly coating the tongue. Its sweet autumn fruits are perfectly balanced by a nutty, spicy dryness. On the palate dark toffee and gentle mint, rhubarb and apple juice. Dries, with a rich, silky cocoa bitterness. To finish, sweetness softly introduces a longer, drying oakiness. Stewed-fruit freshness. Wood-smoke spiced with faint black pepper. With an intense sweet toffee, vanilla and stewed autumn fruit flavours, The Singleton of Dufftown 18 Year Old is delicious in a tumbler glass, on its own or with ice.

Whisky Advocate Award: Craft Whiskey of the Year. Another new batch to FEWs line up is a majority-rye married with the sweetness of corn for a 'softer' interpretation. First encountered back in 2015, this is now pretty seamless as far as ryes go: All the signatures of the grain are clearly expressed, from the wisps of apple and mint through the nose, to the juicy mouthfeel and pepper streak through the finish. The texture is fabulous, the length sustained by oily rye and peppermint chocolate. It's an impressive new batch, and a seriously solid rye by any measure. 46.5% Alc./Vol. First tasted 2015: Pale gold colour is slightly turbid. Offers up scents of beeswax over stewed apple and cinnamon. Time in the glass yields hints of white pepper and cut grass however the focus remains on the mouth watering, apple strudel like qualities. Light, supple entry develops into a concentrated, juicy, beeswax profile framed by firm rye spices accentuating towards the finish which is momentarily rye bread-like, trailing off beeswaxy, dry and closing a little short. Quite compelling. 91 points
