This Thomas H Handy Rye Whiskey has a powerful, lush and boldly spice notes. It has flavours of toffee, fig cake, and candied fruit, followed by mint, cinnamon and clove on the nose. The finish ultimately reveals subtle notes of allspice, coconut and nutmeg. Long and warm.

Although this wine is plush, dense and rich, it possesses a compelling percussion and balance. Right up there with Grange and Hill Of Grace as one of Australia's best Shiraz, and from one of the greatest vintages too!

You get a lush toffee sweetness taste mixed with dark chocolate with hints of vanilla and to end these tastes you can taste underlying notes of dates, tobacco, dark berries and a hint of coffee.

The 12 Year Old Special Reserve is sweet, yet full bodied Kentucky Straight Bourbon which is well crafted and balanced beautifully. On the nose is Butterscotch and Demerara sugar followed by gentle spices, cinnamon, charcoal , coffee and honey on the palate and a long lingering finish full of caramel. This Bourbon can be enjoyed after dinner, much like a good cognac.

Old Rip Van Winkle 13 Year Old Family Reserve Rye displays refined maturity with toasty oak, black pepper and spices on the nose followed by sweet and spicy body full of caramel, prunes and oak.

BRUNO GIACOSA Falletto Rabaja Di Barbaresco, Barbaresco

Simply a wine of true perfection. 2009 in Bordeaux has bestowed many a Châteaux with a wine for the ages and in iconic estates like Château Haut-Brion, the wines have been lifted to 'nirvana-ish' levels. One wouldn't be adverse to simply sitting on the nose of this wine for hours without having a want to taste it such is the complexity and aromatic waves that are present. In the mouth though, this Pessac-Léognan boasts flavours of cigar, raspberries, plums, figs and blueberries with a finish that seems to go on for decades. Breathtakingly stunning.
