A new year is upon us and so is the latest selection of our one-of-a-kind single cask whiskies.

The January Outturn is now available here:  www.smws.ca

If you spent the holiday season treating everyone else, now is the time to treat yourself, so here’s a peek at what might tempt you:

Cask No. 5.35 Laundry in the bakery
12 years old; 2nd fill hogshead; 54.7%abv
Initial nose is fresh and light, green apples and lemon puffs with deeper, sweeter notes developing like baking bread or jam doughnuts. Quite hot and lively to taste, strawberries with black pepper, and to finish, cold peppermint tea and fresh slightly soapy laundry.

Cask No. 4.168 Gunpowder, treason and plot
15 years old; refill gorda; 57%abv
The nose offered fresh toast with lashings of marmalade topped with unsmoked bacon. Then rum & raisin ice cream served on a worn copper spoon. To taste, mesquite marinated BBQ’d meat washed down with an Australian Riesling with notes of burning rubber.
