New Single Cask releases

April 2010

Dear Customer,

This month we are offering two (2) new OLD MALT CASK releases, two (2) new PREMIER BARRELS, as well as 1 (one) OLD & RARE, and one (1) CLAN DENNY Grain.

The OLD MALT CASK Tasting Notes follow:

OMC 1824 Bunnahabhain 13 Year Old
Nose: Fresh, with stewed strawberries + cookie dough
Palate: Opens sweet and flowery + fresh pears+ vanilla tablet
Finish: Short, attractively soft + an orange tang character (J)

OMC 1822 Dailuaine 27 Year Old
Nose: Fresh and clean, opening to pear, wood shavings and grist.
Palate: With vanilla caramel, citrus and loads of barley.
Finish: Barley sugar + honey + light smoke and spice (F)

The OLD & RARE Tasting Note follows:

OAR 0095 Macallan 32 Year Old Wine Finished
Clean, still fresh, on the nose with a distinct honey (plus may be liquorice) and gristed style. The palate is full of sweet barley juice, some more evident light liquorice influence, with a hard candy/barley sugared character. The
finish is spiced – warmingly so – still sweet, and runs late to tail with a dry kindling smokiness. (F)

The PREMIER BARREL Tasting Notes follow – with our normal apologies for their extreme extravagance.

PBR 0074 Bowmore 9 Year Old
Most bodacious Bowmore! Savour this syllabus of sumptuous saltiness – its suffusion of stylish smokiness – this sea shanty of seaweed and seafaring sorcery …. Hello Sailor! (F)
