Dear all,
 
It has been a few months since you last received an email from us but I can promise you that we have been hard at work sourcing and bottling some very exciting new whiskies.
 
In February we bottled the following new whiskies:

Bowmore 2001 8yr old refill sherry (limited UK stock available)
Bunnahabhain 2000 9yr old 1st fill sherry (previous Dancey Man offer, limited UK stock available)
Bruichladdich 1990 19yr old refill bourbon (very limited UK stock available)
Glenlivet 1978 31yr old refill bourbon (UK stock available)
Glenallachie 1973 36yr old refill bourbon (very limited UK stock available)
Aultmore 1974 35yr old 1st fill bourbon (sold out)
 
This was followed in March by some more bottlings:

Breath of the Isles 1995 14yr old refill bourbon (UK stock available)
Macallan 1995 14yr old refill sherry (sold out)
Longmorn 1992 17yr old 1st fill bourbon (UK stock available)
Bunnahabhain 1968 41yr old refill sherry (UK stock available)
 
If you would like prices on any of the above, just let me know. For this month we would like to offer one of the best Longmorns we have ever tasted. From a 1st fill bourbon hogshead, this has a great colour and is packed full of flavours.
 
Longmorn 1992 £66.98 inc. VAT
17 year old Speyside 53.9% vol
 
1 of only 186 bottles from cask no. 48430

Our overall comment on this malt was ‘a sunny day in the Highlands’. The deep gold colour suggests that the ex-Bourbon hogshead it is drawn from is 1st fill.

The first impression is gorse flowers, macaroons and almond paste, with fragrant jasmine behind, some ash, and after a while, light sponge.

Water introduces a pine-like note, heather flowers, yielding to buttery tablet with tinned mandarins.

The latter give a fresh acidity to the taste, which starts sweet, but not cloying and drying elegantly to a medium length finish. Well balanced and stylish.

In addition to this, I am delighted to announce the launch of Adelphi’s Fascadale 10yr old single Island malt 46% Batch 2. Batch 1 was a huge success and we are delighted to have been able to secure another excellent 10 casks for batch 2. This is due to be bottled next week and should be available in most of your stockists by the middle of May. The price is still to be confirmed, but please let me know if you would like to be notified when it is released.

Furthermore, we are planning a 3rd whisky for this range (to accompany the new Fascadale and the sadly departed Laudale) – more news next month!

Whisky travel continues: Holland for a week in March, Washington DC for a weekend earlier this month, and Limburg this weekend.

I look forward to seeing some of you in Limburg this weekend and/or Speyside next weekend.

All the best,

 Alex.
