WE’RE HOGGING ALL OF THE WHISKY

WHISTLEPIG BOSS HOG NOW AVAILABLE!

We seem to have a queue of delivery trucks up Greek Street waiting to drop off their wares as we get in each morning, as new whisky just keeps on arriving! This week we have the indomitable WhistlePig Boss Hog with it’s quite frankly awesome flying pig stopper! A small allocation of the ever popular Old Pulteney 35 Year Old, the new Kilkerrans from Glengyle, and even some whisky from Taiwan!

WhistlePig Boss Hog, 13 Year Old, Barrel 63, 75cl, 58.5%

The Boss Hog is the cream of the WhistlePig crop. This 13 year old has been bottled at barrel proof, and is a peppery rye with notes of candied orange peel, wild flowers and varnished oak. The flying pig stopper is a tribute to Mortimer, the WhistlePig boar who died defending his missus from a rival male! This rye is available in very limited quantities so get it while you can! £200

Old Pulteney 35 Year Old, 42.5%

A superb aged Old Pulteney presented in a beautiful porthole box. Only a small quantity has been produced and is reminiscent of the excellent 40 year old bottling. Spiced orange, dried lemon peel and rancio notes form the backbone of this Highland malt, with undertones of sea salt, sultanas and greengages.  £450

 Kilkerran Work In Progress 7th Release Bourbon Wood, 54.1%

This outstanding, down-to-earth whisky reveals flavours ranging from coastal salinity to honey-coated almonds. We’re huge fans of this recent addtion to Campbeltown. In fact our boss used to buy us out of all of our stock of previous editions so he could keep his last bar stocked with his favourite whisky! This Bourbon cask matured single malt has been bottled at cask strength. £46.95

Kavalan Soloist Single Malt, Sherry Cask, 57.8%

An insane Taiwanese single malt that has been very much matured in ex-sherry casks – where the sherry starts and the whisky stops we can’t decide! This is single malt made exactly as it would be in Scotland, and the King Car distillery that produces it has won a multitude of awards for their efforts!  £120
