Ardmore 2009 is a 13-year-old, Highland whisky that is primarily seen in blends. Spending its life in PX Sherry Hogsheads gives it a beautifully balanced palate. You can expect each dram to be packed full of sweet and savoury notes with a touch of peat smoke, reminiscent of  a succulent, sugar glazed ham.

For something a little different, we have Craigellachie 2010. This whisky has been finished for 24 months in French Oak Puncheons – first used for Cognac and then Guyana Rum. On the palate, it delivers savoury notes of roasted coffee and hazelnuts, balanced with ripe, tropical fruits… we think it’s a great dram.

This Linkwood 2013 began its life in First-Fill Bourbon barrels before finishing its maturation in French Oak Sauternes Casks for 18 months. This 9-year-old combines tropical fruit and spice with warming cinnamon and ginger. As it is limited to 1123 bottles you’ll need to be quick if you want to get your hands on one!

Glentauchers 2011 is another whisky which is usually found in blends. Bottled at 11 years of age has been finished for 24 months in Amontillado Sherry Butts, bringing notes of crushed amaretti biscuits and mascarpone over stewed apricots to the palate.

These expressions and more are on their way to a retailer near you.

NEW OLD PERTH PX LIMITED EDITION

Introducing, a very special Old Perth Limited Edition. The liquid, which was hand-selected from Morrison Scotch Whisky Distillers’ extensive collection of mature single malt Scotch Whiskies, has spent its entire life in a combination of Oloroso and PX Sherry Hogsheads and Butts; and for the past fifteen months, it has been mellowing in 1st-Fill Pedro Ximenez Casks from Bodega Jose y Miguel Martin, Spain.

Old Perth is limited to 7,800 bottles and available to buy since 3rd February in major drinks retailers across the UK. As always, this expression is non-chill filtered and no colour added. It is bottled at 56.2% adding to its powerful yet velvety palate. This deep garnet whisky will not disappoint, exploring beautiful deep fruit notes with sultanas, prunes and cacao. On the palate, it delivers raisins, dates, candied fruit, leading into dark chocolate and cocoa. This expression is retailing at £58…what a steal! To grab a bottle for yourself, click here .
