Hard To Find Whisky “Distillery Focus – Glengoyne” – Scotch Whisky News

Founded in 1833, Glengoyne is a small family owned distillery built under Dumgoyne, a prominent hill around 10 miles north of Glasgow. Although officially located in the Scottish Highlands, its warehouses, directly across the road, lie in the Lowlands. Gentle heating of the stills ensures that distillations are long and slow, resulting in a gentle, sweet, fruity spirit that is often filled into ex-Sherry casks.

Glengoyne Single Malt is always unpeated, and is typically soft, smooth, and approachable. Older ex-Sherry cask matured whiskies are rich, sweet, and generously fruity. Glengoyne Distillery has relaunched its range for 2020 with a brand new packaging design across their award winning Single Malts.

Limited Releases – Wemyss Regional Single Casks at Hard To Find Whisky – Scotch Whisky News

Wemyss Single Casks

The Premium Edit

Wemyss Malts source casks from distilleries across Scotland for their single cask range. Each cask chosen for bottling is representative of the best characteristics of that region and the name given to each Whisky reflects the unique aromas and flavours found within the bottle.

Single cask Whisky is unique in that it is a snapshot of the distillery on one day of production and they type of cask it has been matured in. Depending on age and cask type, there are between 150 – 700 bottles per single cask, making each expression unique and highly covetable, as once they are gone, they are gone…

Bardstown Bourbon Company “Discovery Series #4” at K&L California – American Whiskey News

Bardstown Bourbon Company “Discovery Series #4” Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey (750ml) $129.99 View

The fourth release in the Discovery series is all 10+ year-old bourbon and draws heavily from 13 and 15 year-old barrels. A blend of three-quarters corn makes the mash bill in each of the whiskeys selected for Bardstown’s flagship blend, along with a moderate rye contribution at 13-18 percent, with malted barley (no wheat) making the difference.
