Islay Scotch, and Ol’ Major Bacon Bourbon

There’s something for everyone at this tasting. Presented by Branded Spirits, this everything-but-the-kitchen-sink tasting includes Glen Oak’s 17 yr old Islay scotch and Ol Major Bacon bourbon, made with real bacon!

Pourlist:

Glen Oak 17: 

Sourced from Bruichladdich Distillery, Glen Oak 17 is distilled from 100% Islay Barley, with a sea-salt tinged palate of dark chocolate, orange spice, and light peat on the finish. Only 125 cases of this rare vintage exist.

Ol Major Bacon Bourbon:

Made with real bacon, a mash bill of corn, rye, and barley, and no artificial ingredients, this unique bourbon is no flash-in-the-pan experimental bottling. Ol’ Major Bacon took Gold Medal at the SF World Spirits competition – perhaps the only bacon-flavored spirit to ever do so.

NEW MORTLACHS

The Beast of Dufftown’s recent incarnation as Diageo’s super-premium Speyside has been cast aside in favour of a new, more nuanced approach: pre-release tastings indicate a real return to form for a distillery which deserves to succeed. Billy’s got the scoop.

Customer Review

TALISKER 10 YEAR OLD 

“One of my favourite whiskies ever… very rarely does a whisky actually invoke imagery in me, but this does it and is the only one I have tasted so far to do so. Makes me think of eating freshly caught fish cooked over a wood fire, sitting on a cliff watching the waves crash against the rocks. The only word I can use to describe this whisky is magical…” – Chris.

As a community, we whisky folk can get pretty technical about our drinks, so sometimes it’s nice to see someone just enjoying a dram by the fire. Plus, lighting a fire in this heat requires serious dedication. Cheers @parker_1303! https://www.instagram.com/p/Blq03ggAnQT/

Mackmyra have been exhibiting at our festivals very successfully over the last couple of years. In fact they have been quite dominant when it comes to positive feedback from you, our loyal customers!

We therefore thought it was high time that we had them come and do a guest turn at our lovely small-scale tastings.

For one evening only, you will sit down to try some amazing whiskies from Mackmyra’s small and single casks. This is not a tasting of their ‘core’ range (as good as it is), so expect to enjoy whiskies you have never tasted – and may never taste again. There will also be opportunities to buy bottles and even…casks!

You will be joined by like-minded folk who also enjoy their whisky in what will be an informal but very tasty and informative tasting…”
