Winter Whisky Wonders 2011 at the Park Avenue Liquor Shop.

Brrrrrr!

Winter has hit its stride and is hammering much of the country with snow, sleet and mind-numbing cold on a consistent basis. So we at the Park Avenue Liquor Shop thought we’d warm your hearts with a look at some fantastic new whiskies.

You’ll find some new entries from different countries as well as our latest Park  Avenue Liquor Shop exclusive bottling.

There’s lots to look at so take your time. As always we please contact us with any questions you might have. Hopefully it isn’t snowing where you are but if it is let us remind you – we ship!

Stay warm.

Cheers!

Bruichladdich Micro-Provenence Series:

Port Charlotte – 7 Year Old

Park Avenue Liquor Shop Exclusive.

PC7-PALX Our newest exclusive is full of heat (126.8 proof) and peat. Aged for 7 years in a Bourbon cask, our Port Charlotte open up with aromas of sweet citrus fruits that entrance you before you get walloped by notes of peat smoke and salt. (Think campfire!) Adding just a drop of water keeps some the heat at bay and reveals moreof sweet, honeyed fruit.

Just 218 bottles were made.

Our Price: $120

Port Charlotte ~ PC8 Ar Durthchas

Port Charlotte 8

This is the last of the 2001 vintage ‘age numbered’ Port Charlotte expressions. PC8 come with the nickname ” Ar Duthchas” which is Gaelic for “Land of our heritage”. It is well peated at 40ppm and has matured in American oak at cask strength (121 proof). This bottling in limited to 30,000 numbered bottles and comes in one of  six different tin designs.

Our Price: $130

Octomore 2.2/140 ~ Orpheus

Octomore Orpheus

The world’s most highly peated whisky is back with a new twist. In addition to packing 140ppm at 122 proof, this 5 year old now has a secondary maturation. After the classic bourbon maturation, Orpheus gets a secondary maturation in rare, super-premium Chateau Petrus casks.

Master Distiller Jim McEwan’s (Edited) tasting notes:

“The aromas explode from the glass. It’s peat smoke, wet seaweed all the Islay character is on the flood tide, then with time and a little water the wonderful sweet red fruit notes from the Petrus wine casks emerge; cherry, cranberry and pomegranate, Turkish delight, the sweetness of oak and barley slipstream, together they bring  a sensational contrast to the phenolic maelstrom.  It’s a journey of discovery  for the senses, which are on full alert coping with physical heat, but they are loving it.  It’s something you have never experienced before and will never forget. It’s Beauty and the Beast, Islay style.”

Our Price: $165

Bowmore Claret / Bordeaux Wine Cask

Bowmore Claret

A rare find! The cask strength, claret finished bottling is no longer available  – but we have it!  The nose is very aromatic. A robust struggle between the claret’s fruit-and-cedar notes and a confident Bowmore smokiness.

Bowmore and the Bordeaux battle on your palate bringing warm honey, dates, soft fruit, oak, smoke and sea salt along the way.

There’s Toffeeish (port-like) finish with fruit fighting its way back among the every present oak.

Our Price: $200

Cabin Fever ~ Maple Whisky

Cabin Fever

Cabin Fever is an amazingly smooth and aromatic whisky that has been infused with authentic Vermont Maple. The rye-based whisky is aged for three-years in non-charred barrels. This truly unique whisky has won multiple awards and draws a crowd at Whisky conventions across the country.

Our Price: $26

Glenmorangie: Finealta – Private Edition

Glenmo Finealta

Finealta is Gaelic for ‘elegant’. With that being said – we believe Finaelta is appropriately named.

Crafted from a 1903 recipe, lightly peated beauty has been partially aged in Oloroso and American Oak casks. There are distinctive vanilla and citrus notes. The subtle amount of peat creates a touch of smoke among this many layered malt.

This is the second release (the first was Sonnalta PX) from the Glenmorangie Private edition range of limited edition whiskies.

Our Price: $85

Benromach 10 Year Old

Benromach 10

Benromach 10 year old uses the finest Scottish malted barley before being matured in hand selected Sherry & Bourbon casks, it is then returned to sweet Oloroso sherry casks for a final marrying period.

The nose has rich sherry influence with fruit & nut chocolate as well as delicate cinnamon spice. There are also notes of fresh green apples, with a malty and light peat smoke in the background.

On the palate are delicious forest fruits – raspberries, blackberries, sherry, malt creaminess and a stronger peat influence.

Our Price: $45

Knob Creek: Single Barrel (9 year old)

Knob Creek SB

Master Distiller Fred Noe (seventh generation distiller and great grandson of Jim Beam) ensures that the best barrels in the Claremont, Kentucky distillery don’t  get lost in a blend; instead, superior barrels are hand-selected to be bottled at nine years for this Single Barrel Reserve, with the standard that each barrel contain “a unique expression of Knob Creek’s rich, mature flavor.” The result is a super-premium, natural spirit with strong vanilla notes and a deep, smoky finish. It’s easy to sip and holds its own in a cocktail and packs an unexpected punch at 120 proof.

Our Price: $58

The Hot Irishman: Coffee Liqueur

Hot Irishman

Technically this could qualify as a whiskey. Plus the fact that the award winning Hot Irishman is back in-stock IS big news. It’s still hand crafted from the finest Columbian Coffee, dark brown sugar and mellow Irish Whiskey. To make the very best Irish Coffee just add boiling water and top with cream. Yum.

Our Price: $29
