Laphroaig 25 year old

Matured for 25 years and bottled at cask strength, this was released in 2014 and is has been in high demand ever since. Newly distilled spirit has been left to mature in European Oloroso Sherry Casks, followed by ex-American Bourbon Barrels. If your an Islay whisky fan, be prepared to be blown away!

Tasting Notes:

There is a burst of peat at first, this yields to  sweet sherry and spiced apple, providing a deep and unique Islay experience.

Only a few bottles remain…

Whisky Ramblings Via Video #128

Mark Dermul, Belgian Whisky blogger, tries a single cask from Kavalan, recently released as bottling for the Belgian whisky club The Finest Notes. Kavalan is a young distillery from Taiwan, but their offerings have already won numerous awards. Especially their Solist range has proven to be very good to quite spectacular. It is a bourbon cask at cask strength. It turned out to be a powerhouse!

The Perfect Blend: History, Whisky and Chocolate 

May is Whisky Month and to celebrate, The Real Mary King’s Close will be launching The Perfect Blend a brand new whisky tasting experience in partnership with Royal Mile Whiskies, multiple winner of Whisky Magazine’s Retailer of the Year award.

The Perfect Blend is a unique whisky tasting experience in the heart of Edinburgh’s Old Town. Combining Scotland’s most iconic exports, history and whisky, this tour will take guests back in time as they uncover Edinburgh’s incredible hidden history whilst getting to grips with the national drink.

Guests will enjoy five drams of whisky: a grain, a blend, a malt, a sherry cask matured and a peaty whisky. Each one has been specially selected to highlight the diverse nature of Scottish whisky. The tour, as well as taking guests on a journey through history, will provide an insight into the varieties of whisky available in Scotland; why they are different and how the flavours have been shaped by the methods involved in their production. As guests savour a peaty dram, they may find themselves transported to the west coast of Scotland or they may find themselves doing the work of a noser as they try to work out the different components of a blend.

Each nip of whisky will be accompanied by a sample of award winning organic craft chocolate from local suppliers, Chocolate Tree. Guests will be able to taste how this combination of flavours works together to enhance the subtle nuances of each specially selected whisky. From Madagascan Sambirano 72% dark chocolate to sea salt and caramel, each craft chocolate has been chosen to bring out the individuality of the whiskies. As the chocolate and the whisky combine, guests will be able to experience the flavours transform on their palate.

“This is a really exciting opportunity to work with local businesses to create a truly unique and Scottish event for Whisky Month.” Comments General Manager Craig Miller “It will be a chance for those who have visited the attraction before to come back and experience the Close in a different way and it will also be a great event for those visiting the capital to tick off some of the must-do experiences when in Scotland: taste whisky and discover fascinating history.”

The Perfect Blend will run throughout the month of May and tickets are now on sale. Advance booking is recommended and tickets can be purchased online at www.realmarykingsclose.com/, by phone on 0131 225 0672 or in person at The Real Mary King’s Close.

The Real Mary King’s Close

Hidden beneath the Royal Mile, lies one of Edinburgh’s deepest secrets – The Real Mary King’s Close. This warren of hidden ‘closes’ or narrow streets where real people lived, worked and died, lay forgotten and covered by the City Chambers on the Royal Mile for centuries, until in 2003 it opened as a fascinating new visitor attraction for Edinburgh.

Operated by Continuum Attractions, this VisitScotland five-star attraction allows visitors to step back in time and be guided through these famous underground closes to witness some of the most dramatic episodes from Edinburgh’s incredible past.

MAKE THIS FATHER’S DAY FAMOUS FOR A REASON 

With Father’s Day just around the corner (Sunday 19^th June 2016), The Famous Grouse is on hand to offer some gifting inspiration to toast your Dad on this special day. With a wide range of premium whiskies in the family, there is sure to be one that will whet your Dad’s whistle. You never know he might even share it with you.

The Famous Grouse – Perfectly Balanced

The Famous Grouse, the UK’s number 1 whisky, is a blend of the finest malts, including Highland Park and The Macallan, and sweet grain whisky creating a Famously rich and well-rounded whisky.

The Famous Grouse is the perfect ingredient for quality drinks at home, best served with friends, over ice or topped up with ginger ale and a wedge of orange. The Famous Grouse is available widely in all major retailers.

RRP £17.14 for 70cl bottle or £23.01 for 1L bottle

The Famous Grouse Mellow Gold – Blended for Smoothness

The Famous Grouse Mellow Gold is the latest addition to The Famous Family and has been crafted to deliver a subtly sweeter, mellow flavour.

This premium expression blends whiskies from rare, handcrafted Spanish sherry casks and charred American oak bourbon casks to arrive at a famously smooth, mellow character. The Famous Grouse Mellow Gold is best served over ice or topped with cloudy lemonade and a wedge of orange.

The Famous Grouse Mellow Gold is available in select Tesco and Waitrose stores. This April, The Famous Grouse Mellow Gold will debut a new slim line premium gift carton pack.

RRP £20.00 

The Famous Grouse Smoky Black – Blended for Smokiness

The Black Grouse has been re-named The Famous Grouse Smoky Black, delivering the same distinctive smoky character our drinkers have come to know and love. The Famous Grouse Smoky Black blends more peated malts, including the rare Glenturret, and sweet grain whisky for a famously intense flavour.

For a simple serve we recommend The Famous Smoky and Cola – The Famous Grouse Smoky Black with cola, over ice and a wedge of orange.

The Famous Grouse Smoky Black is available in all major retailers, including Tesco, Waitrose, Asda, Morrisons and Sainsburys stores. This April The Famous Grouse Smoky Black will debut a new slim line premium gift carton. 

RRP £20.00  

The Naked Grouse – Unwrap the Naked Truth

The Naked Grouse is a small batch, craft whisky from The Famous Grouse.  The Naked Grouse is a pure expression of the Master Blender’s craft. Selecting aged whiskies from famous distilleries like the Glenturret, these are then double matured in small batches in the best quality, first-fill sherry casks. This extra time spent in cask imparts a rich colour, smooth character and a naturally sweet and spicy taste profile. An aroma of cherries and oak gives way to sweet winey notes, plums and a hint of cinnamon. The Naked Grouse is often compared to a Christmas cake in a glass.

For a classic cocktail, treat yourself to The Naked Grouse signature serve The Naked Old Fashioned. Simply put a small heap of ice into the bottom of the glass then pour in the whisky, bitters and sugar syrup in any order. Stir vigorously for 20 seconds, before garnishing with orange zest.

The Naked Grouse is available in high end bars and select Sainsbury’s stores.

RRP £25.26

Ohishi K&L Exclusive Single Sherry Cask #653 Japanese Whisky (750ml) ( $74.99)

The special Ohishi distillery is located on the banks of the Kuma River one Japan’s fastest flowing rivers. The distillery was founded in 1872 and produces some of the most exciting whisky coming out Japan. Ohishi grows at least 30% of the rice that they distill and thanks to the fertile soils and exceptional growing climate make for some of the finest base ingredients available. The strain of rice is call “gohyakumanishi” (meaning 5 million stones) and utilizes an organic method of cultivation which requires the use of koi carp for weed control. The rest of the grain is procured from local farms in Kumamoto prefecture and is of the short grained Mochi varietal. The grains are partially malted and then distilled on the traditional Japanese stills before being filled into ex-sherry and brandy casks and aged for long periods of time in the high altitude warehouses. This cask brings in a great balanced sherry influence and definitely feels more like Scotch than our single cask from the Fukano Distillery. This cask will likely be the only one we get for a while considering the recent events in Kumamoto prefecture. Our cask of Fukano sold out in a flash, so we can expect this special cask to go very quickly as well.

GLENWYVIS LAUNCHES COMMUNITY SHARE OFFER TO BUILD FIRST EVER COMMUNITY-OWNED DISTILLERY IN SCOTLAND

GlenWyvis Distillery Community Benefit Society based in the historic Highland town of Dingwall is realising its long held ambition to create Scotland’s very first community-owned craft whisky distillery. Exactly 270 years on from the Battle of Culloden, GlenWyvis launches its Community Share Offer to raise over £1.5m of investment that will help to put whisky distilling back at the heart of Dingwall.

The launch, organised in conjunction with Community Shares Scotland (CSS), offers investment opportunities for as little as £250 to locals living in all IV postcode areas. This will ensure a high level of local ownership of the distillery, but the Share Offer is also open to whisky lovers worldwide with investment opportunities rising in tranches* to a maximum investment of £100,000.

Whisky has been made in Ross-shire and Inverness-shire for centuries and inspiration has been taken from former distilleries: Ferintosh, Ben Wyvis in Dingwall and Glenskiach in Evanton. The original Ferintosh Distillery was established by the Forbes of Culloden family in 1690, on the Black Isle just east of Dingwall, and is one of the oldest recorded whisky distilleries in Scotland. The new Distillery will re-instate craft whisky distilling to the Dingwall area, some 90 years after the last of the town’s original distilleries closed down.

The famous Ferintosh brand of the day was a much loved whisky throughout Scotland and was a favourite of Scotland’s great bard Rabbie Burns, who lamented: “Thee, Ferintosh! O sadly lost! Scotland lament frae coast to coast!” … on its closure in 1785.

The new GlenWyvis Distillery will be built on a farm above the town of Dingwall and will be 100% community-owned distillery and 100% powered by green energy.

The distillery is the brainchild of the Flying Farmer, John F Mckenzie, supported by a board of directors and local community representatives. John said: “We are seeing a very strong early interest

In our community share offer with over 400 pledges already.

We have a truly winning combination here of a stunning Scottish Highland location, immense historical appeal linking back to Culloden, Burns and Ferintosh and readily available hydro, solar and wind energy to bring this innovative whisky project to fruition.”

“From the outset we have envisaged the project as more than a distillery. It is an opportunity for all social investors to help reinvigorate the historic town of Dingwall. GlenWyvis will be built on its whisky heritage, its community-ownership and its environmental credentials. We have amazing local resources and will be using only local barley from a farmers’ cooperative – hence our strapline built on history – powered by nature”

John added: “There is a real buzz around Dingwall at the moment as our local football team Ross County has just won the Scottish Football League Cup and now we are launching our community-owned distillery. It’s double plaudits all round!

“We want to get the message out to the local community as well as to whisky lovers near and far to invest in the future of the GlenWyvis Distillery. On Friday we were one of the main sponsors of the Ross County Annual Dinner and Auction with 300 guests in attendance and each guest received a commemorative miniature of Ross County Football Club League Cup GlenWyvis Gin.”

Construction of the distillery is due to commence in June 2016 with the first run of whisky planned for Burns Night 25 January 2017. The distillery will produce craft Scottish whisky and there are plans for an associated Visitor Centre in the town to be added as part of a wider plan to recreate Dingwall as the Craft Distillery Town of Scotland, and as a quality tourism destination on the North Coast 500 route.

Commenting on the share offer Kelly McIntyre, Programme Manager, CSS said: “This is one of the biggest community projects we have been involved in and we hope it will make a seismic impact in the kind of projects that we will see coming forward to work with Community Shares Scotland in the future.

“GlenWyvis has a truly international appeal with an amazing whisky heritage story which will strike a chord with expat Scots and the Scottish Diaspora worldwide and has the added impact of sitting nicely along the North Coast 500 route. And with its historic story links to Forbes of Culloden there is all the more reason for investors and visitors alike to become involved.”

Scott Armstrong, VisitScotland Regional Partnerships Director, said: “In Scotland’s Year of Innovation, Architecture and Design, it is fantastic to hear about this innovative scheme, which ensures a high level of local ownership of the distillery. Whisky is one of our strongest draws for visitors and I am delighted that GlenWyvis has taken this opportunity to tell their own whisky heritage story.

“With an associated visitor centre also planned, this offers another stop-off point which we would hope will increase visitor numbers to the town. Without tourism, many remote communities would not be sustainable and business sectors like drinks, retail or construction would be severely impacted.

“Our visitor research has revealed that the one thing that makes Scotland different to any other destination is its ability to ‘stir your soul’. Through our ambitious new global Spirit of Scotland campaign and #ScotSpirit social movement, VisitScotland is working to raise the profile of Scotland to unprecedented levels as a place to visit, invest and live – and this project really does have #ScotSpirit!”

The GlenWyvis Community Share Offer opens on 16 April 2016 and closes on 24 June 2016. However, the board reserves the right to extend this deadline if the amount raised is close to the total required to proceed.

Details on how to invest in GlenWyvis Community Share Offer along with the Share Offer Notice can be found here: www.microgenius.org.uk, www.communitysharesscotland.org.uk, www.crowdfunder.co.uk for international investors.
