LUCKY FOR SOME! AUCTION STARTS FRIDAY 13^TH AT 6PM.

SILENCE IS GOLDEN

This brace of whiskies from silent distilleries were relatively easy to source when they were first bottled but harder to source these days. Both the Brora and Port Ellen were distilled in 1982, bottled by Gordon & MacPhail for their Connoisseurs Choice range; whisky from both of these much revered distilleries are now at a premium due to their scarcity and demand from collectors and connoisseurs alike.

One of only 319 bottles , this stunning Glen Albyn 32 year old is a fantastic example of this now closed Highland distillery. Possibly its age makes the spirit one of the oldest examples of this Inverness distillery. Distilled in 1969 and bottled thirty two years later by Douglas Laing, this desirable release would surely enhance any drinks cabinet, or take centre stage in any whisky collection.

This wonderful trio of collectable whiskies from silent distilleries are featured in our upcoming auction, starting on Friday the 13th of January at 6pm, ending on Sunday 22^nd January from 8pm.

Jack Daniel’s Announces Twice Barreled Special Release American Single Malt Whiskey Finished in Oloroso Sherry Casks

Limited edition 2022 Special Release features new 100% malted barley grain bill from the Jack Daniel Distillery – the first whiskey of its kind from Lynchburg

Lynchburg, Tennessee – For the first time in its storied history, the Jack Daniel Distillery is introducing a 100% malted barley grain bill with the new Jack Daniel’s Twice Barreled Special Release American Single Malt Finished in Oloroso Sherry Casks. The 2022 limited edition Special Release features American Single Malt Whiskey twice barreled and bottled straight from sherry casks at 105.7 – 107.8 proof.

Jack Daniel’s Twice Barreled Special Release American Single Malt begins with 100% malted barley that is ground, fermented and distilled in Lynchburg, Tennessee. The whiskey passes through Jack Daniel’s traditional charcoal mellowing process and is then matured in new, charred American white oak barrels for at least four years. It is then finished for an additional two years in the finest quality Spanish Oloroso sherry casks from the Antonio Paez Lobato Cooperage before bottling at cask proof.

“Our Special Release series highlights our ongoing innovations and exceptional whiskeys from the Jack Daniel Distillery, and I’m excited to share this expression as our team set out to craft an American Single Malt that’s uniquely Jack Daniel’s,” said Chris Fletcher, Jack Daniel’s Master Distiller. “The combination of maturing in oak barrels and finishing in sherry casks produces incredible complexity and provides a full-bodied and sophisticated whiskey experience. We’ve never crafted a whiskey like this in Lynchburg and can’t wait to share it with our friends.”

The Special Release American Single Malt Whiskey has an aroma of soft oak, fruit and cocoa. Flavors of caramel and vanilla are complemented by notes of chocolate-covered nuts and berries, with a subtle sherry finish.

Jack Daniel’s Twice Barreled Special Release American Single Malt will be available nationwide in limited quantities beginning in October at $70 for a 700 ml size.

Charbay “MACH 19” Scotch Club Exclusive Hop Flavored Whiskey (750ml)

SKU #1644058

We distill with an Alambic pot still, also known as a Charentais still. It was handmade to our specifications by the Prulho family, a long-established maker of pot stills chosen by some of the best distillers in the Cognac region. It’s a 660-gallon work of art, made of only 2 pure red copper plates. It’s the heart of our distillery, a part of our family, defining us as genuine craft distillers. And with very few in existence in the US, it makes us and the spirits we create unique. Distilling with an Alambic pot still is not for everyone. It’s an art form that takes years of practice and a huge dose of patience. There’s no automation, no shortcuts, no set it and forget it. But there is a reason we chose and will always prize the extremely slow, traditional method over others. It allows us to be precise and selective. We double-distill with our Alambic pot still, the first run to create the body of the distillate, the second run to fill that body with flavor. Distilling slowly, waiting for the right moment, we select only the best parts of the flavor of the entire run as your finished product. That’s the difference you can taste. We’re not trying to be super efficient. We’re taking our time to make awesome. (Charbay Distillery).

Mark’s Whisky Ramblings 478: Caol Ila 9 Year Old 2013 Smoking Buffalo

Mark Dermul, Belgian whiskyblogger, tries a very special Caol Ila. We had to wait a long time for it (honestly, Mark thought that the series was coming to an end with number 10, bottled in 2018), but here it is: the Smoking Buffalo 11, in honor of the 2022 Cup Final of KAA Gent, his local football club. It is once again a Caol Ila, this time distilled in 2013 and bottled at cask strength. He hurried to order it, not only to keep his Smoking Buffalo collection complete, but especially because he is very fond of this malt. In Mark’s opinion, you can never taste enough Caol Ila!
