Imperial 14yo 1994/2008 (46%, Duncan Taylor, Whisky Galore, Madeira)

An independent bottling of Imperial Distillery (currently moth balled and up for sale) finished in a Madeira cask for an unspecified amount of time and ‘no chill filtering or colourings’.

The nose is very pleasant with dusty dry malt (think of a malt mill room or even a malt store) backed by a strong layer of sweetness along with some banana,  cocoa and the very slightest hint of a vague perfume (roses, heather or juniper) however this does not detract. The taste is simply delicious and far out ranks the nose; it is very sweet and malty along with the cocoa and also dark chocolate, cold unsweetened tea and some more fruit. There are also slight, very slight hints of tobacco and leather that simply improves the taste and gives it a muscular edge. Simply delicious. The finish is mild, is very long and is a mirror image of the taste and leaves one hungrily eyeing the glass for another taste.

This sample has been pushed to the back of all the bottles waiting to be tasted and scored, for some unknown reason but now it has a chance to shine; it is very good.

Berry’s Own Stars in Yorkshire Dales

Passport and compass in hand, recently our own Ed Bates ventured north again to the captivatingly beautiful Yorkshire Dales. The Wright Wine Company, based in the historic market town of Skipton (www.wineandwhisky.co.uk), has a range of more than 1000 Whiskies.

Regular Whisky tastings have been held for a number of years but until now an independent bottler hasn’t been asked to show their wares. Ed’s predictable nervousness proved unfounded as a larger than usual audience, who had travelled from as far away as Lancashire, thoroughly enjoyed what he had to say and more importantly, the Whiskies.

New Releases

Just like busses! A number of recent releases have been so successful that we haven’t had a chance to mention them, however over the coming weeks we will be releasing the following gems:- 1987 Bowmore, 1996 and 1975
Glenlossie, 1997 Cragganmore, 1982 Macduff and 1984 from a Sherry Butt, 1979 Caol Ila, 1973 Teaninich, 1983 Glenburgie, 1989 Imperial, 1996 Caol Ila, peated 1997 Bunnahabhain, 1999 Aberfeldy, and a 2000 Bowmore.

On top of all that we have just released a stand alone post range, Berrys’ After Dinner Spirits. The range aims to be an introduction to the world of Berrys’ spirits and consists of two Malt Whiskies (an Islay and a Speyside),

London Whisky Show

The London Whisky Show 2009, a new event on the calendar, set a new level of excellence in terms of how to present a major tasting event. With hundreds of Whiskies from Scotland, Japan, Ireland, Wales, USA and Europe, the 1000-plus visitors were truly spoilt for choice being able to sample many aged, rare and premium Whiskies not usually presented at
Whisky tasting events. The magnificent Guildhall in the heart of London’s
historic square mile set the standard for the show with its beautiful and ancient architecture, stained glass windows, high ceilings and ambient light.

Whisky producers and distributors filled the Great Hall with an enviable selection of Whiskies, many 30 years old, some over 50 years old and all available for sampling. BB&R had a comprehensive range on show, as ever,
with once again the 1971 Invergordon Single Grain proving very popular with all who tried it.

Mortlach 18yo 1990/2009 (46%, Coopers Choice, Sherry, C#4421, 726 Bts.)

An independent single cask bottling of the cult favourite Mortlach Distillery, from a sherry cask and bottled un-chillfiltered and natural colour while being reduced to 46%. While the dates of distillation may offer the suggestion of a greater age one should accept that the label has been verified; if the months of distillation and bottling were known, well then things would be known for sure. None the less; the nose is assertive and fruity (think oranges and tinned fruit cocktail), also some Marmite mixed in for good measure and there is also a cream soda fizziness hovering in the back ground. There is also some malt and perhaps the slightest hint of peat smoke? The taste is at first rich and fruity and then dries out some what to reveal some wood spice and some more of the sweet fruit. There is also some sherry and a distinct lack of the Marmite but the mild peat smoke is in evidence however it is very subtle. The taste is very pleasant. The finish is malty and fruity (as described above) with a return of the cream soda but not fizzy but now creamy and the finish is quite long and pleasant. There is also some dry wood spice and more fruit after a few minutes; it’s a big picture finish. After a number of minutes there is the slightest hint of the Marmite.

A meaty Mortlach from a sherry cask.

Looking back its been a busy 2009!

At the distillery the highlights include a record production in our floor malting’s, The maltings guys have worked very hard to increase the valuable supply of malt coming from our floor malting’s. During 2009 we have also seen a record number of friends visting their plots, it’s fantastic to see so many friends making the pilgrimage to Islay and enjoying our island when they get here. Last, and by no means least, our warehousemen have had their busiest year ever, laying down casks for the future. That’s all thanks to you!

I would also like to thank all of the friends who have written or e-mailed us whether it be on our website or to the distillery itself. We have always loved reading your thoughts, comments and suggestions – indeed that’s how the friends club started in the first place.

Another thanks for all of you who wrote in with your kind words about our “Distillery Live” broadcast from the Maker’s Mark Distillery in Kentucky (if you missed it a recorded version is available on the Laphroaig TV on the website). We had over 35,000 people watch it live on the night and it has already been viewed by over 100,000 people on demand. It really was a lot of fun so I’m really pleased so many of you have got to see it.

One final thing before you go off to view your personalized card. Since we launched the Triple Wood expression we have been getting literally hundreds of emails from FOLs who unfortunately missed out on getting one in our online shop (our online supply ran out in 3 days!). Well, I have been told that for any of you who will be flying soon there are still bottles available in various Travel Retail stores, and should you require help in finding one, just contact us at the distillery.

Seasons Greetings.

Slàinte,

John Campbell

Bruichladdich Octomore 2.2 Orpheus 5yo OB 61%Abv.

The Joynson reports:

A 5yo from Bruichladdich matured in Ch Petrus casks.

140 ppm at distillation and limited to 15000 bottles.

Aware of how keen you lot are to learn of my pontifications I’m performing this sampling session on the Oban – Glasgow bus (to a boozy lunch).

I’ve tried Red Octomore a couple of times over the weekend, without pen, and my best despeiption to date is “peat cordial”.

Now with ‘The Lamb lies down on broadway’ (Genesis’ prog-rock monsterpiece – but the right length for the voyage) piped into my lugs here is a final attempt at a definate note, I have a wee glass and a decanted miniature as my aperatus, and a grip on the seat in front to hold my glass while I iType, perfect!.

Peaty. Very-very oily. Fruity (lemons). Mostly oily-peat. I don’t know how this has been polished off, these days it’s better to taste without the USP baggage, to report on the real merits of a dram. Some posh wine that I’ve never heard of no doubt. Over the gums; more peat, great heat and some tingle. An oily swallow. Peat and bitter start to the finish, a shouldering bonfire haaa.

Water, (Volvic – I’m afraid) produces a fresh-field perfume but it’s still peaty. The bloke who has just sat next to me is giving me ‘looks’ but I’m not playing his game, the fug of peat about me must be raising curiosity, to say the least! Water does not do much to reveal more but does make it more pleasant.
Conclusion. Very-very peaty cordial. Not my style at all but it has made the journey from Cairndow to Luss at 9am much more pleasant, oh look there’s a bit left! Slainte!

Boring bit: on the Malt Whisky Flavour Map i’d put this in square E10, smoky.

 Dave, please add the technical stuff.
