K&L Notes: The magical Camp Nelson warehouses, which are relatively new to the Wild Turkey family, have become the darling of bourbon loving world over the last decade. This special facility was originally as part of the Kentucky River Distillery which thrived in Jessamine county before prohibition. It was eventually purchased by the Canada Dry Ginger ale company. In the 1970s the distillery there burnt down, but the old rickhouses survived and would become part of the Seagram’s industrial complex. When Seagram’s went bust in the early 2000s, Pernod Ricard stepped into to take the facility and expand its warehouse for a now expanding Wild Turkey. Over the next 2 and half decades those warehouses would go on to produce some of the most legendary modern bourbons and now Wild Turkey highlights the best and oldest stock in those warehouses with its highly coveted “Single Rickhouse” releases.

This pack of Wild Turkey includes the 2025 release of Camp Nelson E along, a bottle of the well regarded K&L Camp Nelson FAME picks. In addition, you’ll receive a bottle each of the core Russell’s 10 year bourbon, Russell’s 6 year rye and the well regarded Single Barrel. Get the whole range for $50 less than list price, a stellar deal for this hotly sought-after selections of exceptional Kentucky whiskies.

Edinburgh, Scotland – November 2025; Following a landmark year in which the business is on track to achieve a turnover of £2.5 million, Tailored Spirits Co., Scotland’s fastest-growing independent whisky start-up, continues to push the boundaries of Scotch whisky with the launch of the latest releases in its acclaimed The Experimental Series – a collection of bold, small-batch whiskies that celebrate creativity, craftsmanship, and curiosity.

Based in Leith, Edinburgh, Tailored Spirits Co. has quickly built a reputation for redefining how whisky enthusiasts experience single cask bottlings. The company specialises in Scotch whisky and premium spirits, working with private clients and businesses worldwide to source, mature, design, and bottle luxury whiskies and other spirits.

The Experimental Series invites drinkers to explore the diverse flavours of Scotland’s most characterful distilleries through limited-edition micro-releases, each with its own distinct story and finish. The latest line-up introduces Experiment 4 (Aultmore 15 Year Old), Experiment 5 (Echo – Benriach 13 Year Old), Experiment 6 (Fort – Dailuaine 13 Year Old), and the Special Experiment 1 Black Label (Anam – Springbank 23 Year Old).

“This new collection marks an exciting step forward in our mission to celebrate experimentation in single cask whisky,” said Adam Harding, Co-Founder and Director of Tailored Spirits Co. “It follows a year beyond our expectations – one that’s seen us grow faster than we could have imagined.

“Each whisky in The Experimental Series tells its own story of maturation, finishing, and flavour exploration, and we’re proud to continue showcasing the depth and diversity of single cask Scotch whisky. The design is as much a part of the experience as the whisky itself. It’s about evoking curiosity – that sense of discovery and experimentation that sits at the heart of our brand.”

Scotch Malt Whisky Society ‘Finding the Perfect Tree’ – Scotch Whisky News

An early winter’s snow takes us on a walk amidst the pines with Spruce on the loose where dark chocolate was found in an old pipe tobacco box lined with crystallised spruce sap. Thick cut marmalade and nutmeg-infused orange peel lead nicely into a clearing where a lightly peated adventure awaits. Wandering Alchemy is the respite from the walk with deep and enticing notes of soft, heathery peat smoke and a decadently rich and mouthcoating, yet warming and gentle palate to see the festive season through.

SPRUCE ON THE LOOSE

Age: 17 years

Cask: First Fill Barrel & Second Fill Barrels

READ MORE

Sticks of calligraphy ink joined slices of dried papaya in maple syrup as autumn leaves fell upon school textbooks. Dark chocolate was found incarcerated in an old pipe tobacco box lined with crystallised spruce sap. The nose had us in a boreal forest, but the palate transported us to summer fields and fruit orchards: green apple slices mingled with dried ginger, toasted cereals and a spoonful of thick-cut marmalade in an orchardist’s tobacco pouch. Water introduced nectarines and peaches, cedarwood mothballs and honey to the nose, while the palate transformed to a minted bay leaf bouquet garni, woven with nutmeg-infused orange peel, sweet chilli fruit leather and fondant.

Looking for the perfect hauf ‘n’ hauf beer pairing with your dram of Spruce on the loose? Jack Low from Wasted Degrees suggests their Amber Rye, a malty offering with complementary notes of marmalade. It’s also officially the number three amber beer in the UK, according to The Society Of Independent Brewers and Associates. Pick up your Amber Rye here and be sure to tell us what you think about the pairing!

WANDERING ALCHEMY

Age: 10 years

Cask: Bourbon, Oloroso, Pedro Ximénez & HTMC Hogsheads

What witchcraft and molten japery is this? At least, that’s what our raised eyebrows and throaty musings queried. Surely this dram was much older and much more ‘old style’ that it had a right to be? We detected deep and enticing notes of soft, heathery peat smoke. Then encroaching medicinal charms, pine wood, camphor, cooling bonfire embers and tendrils of seaweed! Water dialled up the charm vibes to ‘Roger Moore’: elegant wood smoke, fragrant phenolics, old herbal and tar liqueurs and a kiss of cask-aged mead. The palate was decadently rich and mouthcoating, yet warming and gentle. Its rich herbal character mingled with more medicines, dried mint, mineral oils and fatty sheep wool oils. Reduction brought us wood spices, resinous hardwood extracts, smoked black olives, pure tar, hessian and a lovely medley of aniseed, salted liquorice and soy sauce – what despicable chemist brewed this sorcery!?

Laphroaig 2013 12 Year Old Madeira Single Cask #1328 TWS Exclusive – Scotch Whisky News

Laphroaig 2013 12 Year Old Madeira Single Cask #1328 TWS Exclusive

This exceptional single malt is an exciting rarity that we can’t wait to share with you – it’s a dedicated Laphroaig bottling created exclusively for The Whisky Shop! Crafted with our customers firmly in mind, and found nowhere else in the world, it represents a unique collaboration with one of Islay’s most iconic distilleries and stands proudly as a true collector’s piece.

Drawn and fully matured in Madeira Hogshead cask #1328, the liquid which was distilled in 2013 at 51.6% ABV, is limited to just 335 bottles!

The nose opens with the bold medicinal peat smoke that is so characteristically Laphroaig, before easing into a sweeter space full of dried figs, stewed berries and sweet pipe tobacco. The palate is rich and oily, where Laphroaig’s hallmark iodine and bonfire smoke meet the warming sweetness of the Madeira cask, revealing dark honey, clove and baked apple in full, rounded layers. The finish is long, leaving glowing peat embers softened by a delicate sea-spray note.

Whisky Updates: B-Word Cask Strength and New Islay Cask Rye – Canadian Whisky News

First, B-Word Bourbon Style Whisky will be back in stock beginning Friday December 12th. Getting BC grown hard corn has been a challenge so this batch is quite small at 370 bottles. Batch 4 a four-grain bourbon style and is a vatting of four casks: European oak–aged corn whisky, and American oak–aged rye, wheat, and malted barley. I took a uniquely Canadian approach to this bourbon style: rather than creating a mash bill and fermenting all the grains together, we mashed, distilled, and aged each grain separately. This allowed for more versatility when blending. The final whisky is 60% corn, 30% rye, 5% wheat, and 5% malt. The standard bottle strength is 46%, but if you are looking for something a little more high proof, we bottled a limited amount (147 bottles) of cask strength B-word at 62.5%. I don’t expect either whisky to last long, and we won’t have any more for a year, so  if corn whisky is your fav, stock up while you can!

Second, we have one last new release for 2025. Islay Cask Rye Whisky is a brand new product, and was aged entirely in ex-Islay Scotch Whisky barrels from a distillery that rhymes with shmar bag. Bottled at 50% ABV, this whisky is a first as far as we can find, as we don’t think anyone in the world has been crazy enough to age 100% Rye Whisky full maturation in peated whisky barrels! Expect notes of vanilla, campfire, cloves, cinnamon, dill, and a even a bit of salty sea spray. This is a must try for any fan of rye whisky or peated whisky, and even if you don’t like peated whisky yet, this might be your gateway to the category.
