As we watch from afar the humanitarian disaster unfolding in the Ukraine we at Wolfburn have decided to ask you for your help again in exchange for whisky. The initial aim is to generate £25,000 as fast as possible for the Ukrainian Humanitarian Relief Fund then go on to sell 1,550 bottles. All proceeds will go to provide urgently-needed help to refugees and other affected people displaced from their homes and loved ones who need help. Help us raise that money to send on and help those families who have had to leave everything behind to find safety. The Wolfburn Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal bottle is a non-chill filtered, natural colour bottling of seven-year-old Wolfburn whisky matured in ex-bourbon quarter casks bottled at 46% vol.

TASTING NOTES

ON THE NOSE – Gentle notes of orange and lemon zest come first, followed by a subtle vanilla sweetness. Lots of fruity promise.

ON THE PALATE – Soft citrus tones lead the way, overlaid with hints of hazelnut and oak. Wolfburn’s classic floral flavours are here in abundance, etched with hints of dried fruit and cinnamon.

THE FINISH – Caramel-type flavours are layered with dried fruit; demerara sugar meets figs and dates. A faint hint of oaky smoke remains at the very end to ensure a lovely lingering finish.

The Whisky Exchange introduces an exclusive, extra special whisky for April Fool’s Day. And like the best jokes, it may look simple upon first glance, but there’s a lot going on underneath…

The spirits retailer is keeping key elements of this limited-edition whisky hidden until 9.00am on Friday 1 April when all will be revealed. Maintaining the mystery, the label of the bottle has been printed with an ink sensitive to UV light, hiding details until a torch, included with every purchase, reveals the hidden text.

A visible statement declares ‘Extremely old, I wish I were younger’ as a tactic to retain the illusion, everything about the whisky is old yet the liquid is just 5 years old (embargoed until 9am 1^st April).

The Whisky Exchange has worked with one of the oldest names in Scottish distilling and so, despite its comparative youth, this fruity and very special April Fool’s 2022 whisky is wise beyond its years. The distillery is celebrated as one of the most up-to-date in Scotland, marrying traditional production with green technology to create the country’s greenest operation.

The spirit was distilled at Ardnamurchan – owned by whisky veterans Adelphi – under the watchful eye of Alex Bruce – descendant of Andrew Usher, the father of modern blended whisky. Alex and his team selected five casks for us, bringing together old-fashioned smoke with bright, unpeated spirit to create a truly modern and fruity whisky.

Details that can be communicated now:

• 53.2% ABV
• Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky
• Available to purchase from thewhiskyexchange.com on Friday 1 April 2022, from 6am, while stocks last
• https://www.thewhiskyexchange.com/feature/aprilfools

BLADNOCH DISTILLERY LAUNCHES PEATED WHISKY EXPRESSION: ALINTA

Bladnoch Distillery adds peated expression to their ‘Classic Collection’ of Single Malt Scotch Whiskies

[For immediate release] BLADNOCH DISTILLERY, SCOTLAND – 204-year-old Lowland distillery, Bladnoch, are delighted to announce the latest addition to their ‘Classic Collection’ of Lowland Single Malt Scotch Whiskies: Alinta. Alinta will be the first peated whisky to be added to their range since the distillery was taken over by David Prior in 2015.

‘Alinta’, an indigenous Australian word from several Southeast Australian language groups means ‘fire’ and ‘flames’, and evokes the notes of Campfire Embers found in each sip. As Bladnoch look to develop their portfolio and provide an even wider variety of options and experiences, this expression that utilises PX Sherry and ex-bourbon casks combined together with a sweet smoky peated spirit, sets Alinta apart from anything previously released by Bladnoch.

Bladnoch’s Master Distiller Dr. Nick Savage who carefully hand selects each of the casks says, “Alinta is the first peated expression from Bladnoch within our core range and will become an established part of our ongoing whisky releases. Focusing on a very small annual peat production campaign, only a small volume will ever become releases. The exquisite combination of the PX sherry and Bourbon casks give Alinta an amazing balance of rich raisin-like sweetness and smoky campfire”.

This carefully selected marriage of casks is what helps bring this superbly flavourful expression to life. The 1^st fill ex-bourbon barrels highlights the refreshing, citrus sweetness and floral notes of the whisky whilst the 1^st fill PX Sherry casks add a subtle rich body and mouthfeel to the experience. This rousing cask duo holds its own with the peated spirit without the delicate notes being lost.  On the nose, you can expect notes of smoky ice cream, delicately florals and sweet oak. Across the palate you’ll get campfire smoke, almonds, raisins, and white chocolate. The finish is luxuriously long with a sweet smoke.

Bottled at 47%, and without chill-filtration and with natural colour, Alinta will be available online on Bladoch’s website and in our Visitor Centre in the heart of Dumfries and Galloway from late February and will be sold around the world through Bladnoch’s network of distributors in the coming months.
