BUFFALO TRACE DISTILLERY

WELCOMES GUESTS FROM AROUND THE WORLD AND ONLINE 

Tourism up 28 Percent and a New Website for the New Year! 

FRANKFORT, Franklin County, Ky (Jan. 2013) – Buffalo Trace Distillery kicks off 2013 with some exciting news to share: A record number of visitors toured the Trace in 2012, shattering the previous visitor record by 28 percent.  And for whiskey fans that cannot tour the 225-year-old Distillery in person, Buffalo Trace has unveiled a new website at www.buffalotracedistillery.com.

The enhanced website features a new interactive map on its home page showing its expansive 130 acre complex, complete with several points of interest containing 360 degree views of the campus, as well as seven web cams that give a bird’s eye view of areas such as the hand bottling halls, barrel dumping, the fermenters and the still house. There’s even steam rising, a barrel rolling, and truck moving along the road to give as real of an experience as one can get without visiting here in person!

Delving into the website, visitors can watch videos of the distilling process, learn about distilling from Master Distiller Harlen Wheatley and hear Master Distiller Emeritus Elmer T. Lee talk about his 59+ years spent in the bourbon industry. There is also extensive information about the Distillery’s bourbons, the four different tours offered and tour times, and the events and rental facilities.

“We’re very excited about our progress we’ve made, both on the tourism side and the cyber side,” says Meredith Moody, marketing services director.  “We attribute our strong increase in visitors to the fact that we offer a great variety of tours, all complimentary. Our bourbons continue to win awards, and that also draws people here from around the world. Now with an updated website, which offers so much more information and interaction, visitors can feel like they took a tour from their living room!”

Chef Lee Anne Wong, winner of Iron Chef America and editor of the Maker’s Mark® Cookbook, has created several delicious game-day snack recipes using Maker’s Mark, the handcrafted bourbon from the heart of Kentucky. And why not jazz up party wings with Kentucky bourbon, or enliven onion dip with America’s spirit? Maker’s Mark is the only bourbon that’s smooth and versatile enough to shine from both behind the bar and in the kitchen; not to mention, bourbon is quickly becoming the spirit of the moment.

Bourbon Apple Glazed Chicken Wings

Serves 4

• 2 lbs chicken wings, trimmed
• 1 cup Maker’s Mark® Bourbon
• 1 can frozen apple juice concentrate, thawed (12 ounces)
• ½ cup soy sauce
• ¼ cup cider vinegar
• ¼ cup dark brown sugar
• 4 large cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper
• 1 tablespoon maple syrup

1.            Combine all of the ingredients in a medium pot. Bring to boil on high heat and then reduce to a simmer for 30-40 minutes until the wings are tender and the glaze has reduced, coating the wings.

2.            Preheat the oven to 325F. Remove the wings from the pot and transfer to a parchment lined sheet tray. Bake for 15-20 minutes until the wings begin to color and the glaze becomes shiny. Garnish with minced scallions and apple. Serve immediately.

Bourbon Onion Dip

Serves 6-10

• 4 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
• 2 large sweet onions/vidalias, peeled, halved, sliced thinly with the grain
• 1 teaspoon salt
• ½ cup Maker’s Mark® or Maker’s 46™ Bourbon, plus 1 tablespoon
• ¾ cup Greek yogurt
• ½ cup fresh ricotta cheese
• ½ cup sour cream
• Few drops lemon juice
• Pinch sugar
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Crudite vegetables and chips for dipping

1.            In a wide heavy-bottomed pot, heat the olive oil over high heat. Add the sliced onions and the teaspoon of salt. Sauté the onions, stirring often until they begin to soften, 5 to 6 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and continue to stir and cook the onions until they begin to color, about another 15 minutes. Add 1/2 cup of bourbon to the pan and stir in. Reduce the heat to low and cook the onions for another 30 to 40 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions have colored and caramelized. Remove the onions from the pan and spread on a plate or baking sheet to cool in the fridge.

2.            Using a food processor or blender, combine the ricotta and yogurt and process until smooth. Transfer the mixture to a bowl. Fold in the sour cream. Once the onions have cooled, rough chop them briefly. Fold into the mixture and season to taste with lemon juice, sugar, salt and pepper. Serve the dip cold with crudite and chips.

The Pub

• 1-1/2 parts Maker’s Mark® Bourbon
• Cold ginger beer

In tall pilsner (beer) glass, add cubed ice. Pour in Maker’s Mark® Bourbon and fill to top with ginger beer.

MAHARAJA OF JODHPUR TOASTS DIAMOND JUBILEE YEAR AS THE 61^ST CAVALRY TEAM CLAIM VICTORY AT ROYAL SALUTE CUP 

The Royal Salute Maharaja of Jodhpur Golden Jubilee Cup came to an exciting close this New Year as the 61^st Cavalry team claimed victory after an exciting week of 10-goal polo. From 26 – 31 December, patrons and players alike enjoyed the annual tournament, raising a glass to commemorate His Highness Gajsingh II, The Maharaja of Jodhpur’s 60 year reign in the Blue City.

Festivities included the opulent Diamond Jubilee Ball at Umaid Bhawan Palace, where Royal Salute honoured the Maharaja’s celebratory year with a one-off Scotch whisky crafted especially by the Master Blender and presented in a personally engraved crystal decanter. One of the rarest and most bespoke blends ever created by Royal Salute, the expression includes whiskies taken from each decade of the Maharaja’s reign. This incredibly unique blend includes many whiskies from distilleries which are no longer in production – adding even further to its rarity. There is also a rich mix of top quality casks, butts, hogsheads and barrels.

His Highness, who was touched by the gesture, enjoys nothing more than sharing his passion and enthusiasm for the sport with the guests of Umaid Bhawan Palace who over the years have included, Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, Madonna and most recently Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell and Diana Ross for the 50th birthday of Russian billionaire Vladimir Doronin.

His Highness Gajsingh II, The Maharaja of Jodhpur commented: “I absolutely relish hosting the Royal Salute Maharaja of Jodhpur Golden Jubilee Cup and this year in particular, being a significant year for me and my family, the celebrations have been the perfect way to mark a momentous 60 years.”

Guests celebrated the close of the Royal Salute Cup with a spectacular procession led by the Maharaja, through the imposing Mehrangarh Fort, celebrating the New Year and concluding festivities.

Neil Macdonald, Global Brand Director for Royal Salute, commented: “We are delighted to again be sponsoring the Royal Salute Maharaja of Jodhpur Golden Jubilee Cup for a fourth consecutive time. Having celebrated a Diamond Jubilee earlier in the year, we are thrilled to be toasting the Diamond Jubilee year with His Highness Gajsingh II, The Maharaja of Jodhpur. We hope 2013 will be a prosperous year for all and really look forward to the next event.”

Royal Salute’s commitment to international polo is ever growing, with sponsorships of some of the world’s most prestigious polo events across the Americas, Asia Pacific, Europe and the Middle East. Royal Salute World Polo programme continues with the Royal Salute Nation’s Cup in Dubai on 23-26 January 2012.

Chivas 18, the world’s No. 1 ultra-premium Scotch whisky, is highlighting its luxury credentials with the launch of Chivas 18 by Pininfarina, a series of exclusive limited editions created in collaboration with the prestigious Italian design company.

With a strong shared heritage in luxury and craftsmanship, Chivas 18 has collaborated with Pininfarina, for its ability to encapsulate the brand’s modern and luxurious character.

The first design is based on a streamlined drop, giving a sense of movement that is inherent to Pininfarina’s designs. The design has a rich blue, metallic finish outer case, reminiscent of the metal work for which the Italian company is best known and a wood veneer that represents the oak casks used in the ageing of Chivas 18. Units are expected to retail at £90*.

The second expression of the partnership features the same design cues of the first but taken to a further level by featuring a solid wood inlay and a more aerodynamic shape. It presents the limited edition bottle and includes two glasses which echo the drop design. Each unit created is individually numbered to highlight its exclusivity and will retail at £360*.

Inspired by the Mascherone (the original wooden frame that was used to refine new automobile shapes) the Chivas 18 Mascherone by Pininfarina marks the pinnacle of the partnership. Hand assembled in Cambiano by Pininfarina, it features an oak internal structure, clad in aluminium. Mirroring the elegant precision of Pininfarina’s celebrated automotive innovations, only five of this collector’s piece will be on display globally and individual pieces will be made to order on request. A light, found at the base, brings this artistic piece to life. Price on application.

Long lost child of Canadian whisky empire coming home

A long lost child of the Canadian whisky empire is coming home.

From the vestiges of the world’s southern-most whisky producer in New Zealand – which was once a part of Canada’s vast Seagrams realm – the rare and acclaimed Dunedin DoubleWood 10 year old blend has just arrived in Ontario.

Crafted from the pure ingredients for which the Land of the Long White Cloud is famed, the distinctive Dunedin DoubleWood is turning heads. It has picked up a swag of awards in recent competitions and also helped New Zealand score stunning triumphs over Scotland, Wales and England in last month’s Whisky Test Match series across the UK. The New Zealand Whisky Collection’s win in Edinburgh, against three local legends (Glenfiddich, Johnnie Walker and Ardbeg) in a blind tasting by Scottish judges, was a particularly stunning upset.

The DoubleWood “noses and tastes older than its 10 years. A distinctive, pleasant nose which combines scented face cream with light rose wine and later some sandalwood,” according to Whisky authority, Charles Maclean.

Seagrams – the Canadian company that was once the largest distiller of alcoholic beverages in the world – owned the New Zealand distillery in Dunedin, from where the DoubleWood hails, for most of that distillery’s life.

“The distillery flourished under Seagrams,” said New Zealander Cyril Yates, who started at the distillery as a teenager and worked there for 24 years.

“But in the late 1990s, Australian brewer Fosters bought it and shut it down – just as I was due for a 25 year long-service reward trip to Ontario to visit the Seagrams’ museum.”

The closure marked the end of a chequered distilling history in New Zealand that began with Scottish settlers in the 1800s but encountered numerous setbacks along the way, such as prohibition, and even interference from Scottish bankers who would only finance construction of New Zealand’s railways if the local whisky industry was wiped out.

The barrels of whisky that remained at the now defunct distillery were sold to a wine company. They left the single malt quietly maturing and ingeniously decanted all the blended whisky into red wine barrels to add character and colour – a technique that is now being copied, even back in Scotland. The whisky has sat in those 443 barrels, ageing and sweetening, in a South Island seaside bondstore ever since.

“It is the influence of the red wine barrels which gives the whisky a cream soda, almost bubblegum-like soft and sweet explosion across the palate,” said the Collection’s Greg Ramsay.

Two years ago, Mr Ramsay – a young whisky enthusiast and golf entrepreneur from the tiny Australian island of Tasmania – bought those barrels and set about bottling the whisky as part of a plan to revive the New Zealand whisky industry.

The New Zealand Whisky Company hasn’t looked back – its whisky collection is picking up awards wherever it goes and is being exported to Scotland, Australia, the Netherlands – and now Canada, courtesy of the LCBO. Early next year, LCBO will also stock New Zealand’s 21 year old South Island Single Malt.

Plans are now also on the horizon to resume distilling at Dunedin.

“Canada is one of the world’s most discerning whisky markets and we can’t wait for their verdict on these delicious drams,” said Mr Ramsay.

“In fact, the fate of a mothballed New Zealand industry, that was once so well nurtured in Canadian care, could once again sit with the people of Ontario. If our foray into Canada proves as successful as our other international exports, then a return to distilling will happen sooner rather than later.”

The Dunedin DoubleWood is available now at LCBO outlets. It retails for $89.95 More information about the New Zealand Whisky Company is available at www.thenzwhisky.com.

GlenDronach releases 7^th batch of single cask bottlings

“FAULTLESS”, “brilliant” and “complete” are just three of the adjectives Jim Murray has used in his new 2013 Whisky Bible to describe the five expressions that comprise GlenDronach’s latest batch of single cask bottlings.

It’s the seventh batch to be released by the award-winning Aberdeenshire distillery.

The five, ranging from 18 to 40 yo, are now available in the UK and will be released in export markets from January 2013. Two have been matured in Pedro Ximenez sherry puncheons and three in Oloroso sherry butts.

All five have been specially hand-selected by The BenRiach Distillery Company’s Managing Director Billy Walker whose tasting notes speak lovingly of “an orchestra in full flow”, “an effusion of honeycomb” and even “teasing notes of toffee apples”.

The cask details are as follows:

1972 cask # 710 / 40 years old / Oloroso Sherry Butt / 49.0% vol. / 356 bottles 

1989 cask # 5475 / 22 years old / Pedro Ximenez Sherry Puncheon / 51.6% vol. / 600 bottles 

1991 cask # 3183 / 20 years old / Pedro Ximenez Sherry Puncheon / 51.3% vol. / 600 bottles 

1992 cask # 1123 / 19 years old / Oloroso Sherry Butt / 57.8% vol. / 524 bottles 

1994 cask # 98 / 18 years old / Oloroso Sherry Butt / 58.2% vol. / 628 bottles

In his 2013 Whisky Bible, Jim Murray was very complimentary about all five, but reserved special praise for the ’72, ’91 and ’94 vintages:

Of the 1972 cask # 710, he said: “The richness of the sherry is almost the stuff of make-believe…the delivery is of oak crashing in a forest – mighty and all-consuming…wow, this is like a big succulent bourbon matured in a top-class sherry butt. This is a malt which if you should ever chance upon, you give the guy your coat if you have not money enough; even your undergarments if it does the trick! For this is a whisky so complex, so complete, it is almost exhausting.” He gave it 96.

He commented re the 1991 cask # 3183: “Almost a coffee cake and Swiss roll marriage with grape jam for filling…mocha-flavoured Lubec marzipan notes sidle in delightfully…the light spices pulse. Tries to be syrupy and overbearing but fails miserably. Has to settle for being brilliant.” He gave it 95.

And summing up the 1994 cask # 98, he said: “Absolutely huge grape: a real Dundee cake dripping with Oloroso and Demerara…a faultless sherry butt. I had this sample in my hand as the Queen gave her address to round off her 60th anniversary celebrations: I could hardly have had a more fitting dram with which to toast her.” It also achieved a 96.

Keep an eye on our website and Facebook page over the coming weeks for more information on these new releases, tasting notes and exclusive product photography.

After their Whisky Test win, The New Zealand Whisky Company helps whisky, rugby and other sporting clubs in Canada host an International Whisky Tasting Fundraiser

From the stunning clean-sweep of wins over the English, Welsh and even Scottish whiskies in a Whisky Test Match series around the UK in November 2012, Greg Ramsay (CEO) of The New Zealand Whisky Company dreamed up a win-win campaign to celebrate the launch of their whisky in Canada AND help Canadian whisky and sporting clubs raise funds. The New Zealand whisky industry has a strong connection with Canada, as you can read about here.

By hosting an international whisky tasting event – similar to the series run in the UK in November – the whisky or sporting club can potentially raise some much-needed funds for their club, while their members have fun and educational evening (often in the off-season).

It’s really easy to run the fundraising event – the New Zealand Whisky Company sends the club a kit which tells them, step-by-step, how to run the event. They even provide material for the club to promote the event.

For a small cash outlay by the club (to buy 5 bottles of international whisky for the event), on top of the value participants get in learning about whisky through the tastings the total prize pool available to hand out on the night is around $240 CAD (The New Zealand Whisky Company sends some whisky-related products for the prize pool).

Pricing the event as they recommend, the club only needs about 8 people to break-even so the 9th and every person after that who comes along is adding to the clubs’ coffers.

And, The New Zealand Whisky Company is offering some excellent bonuses too – including whisky hipflasks, Rugby balls signed by an All Blacks player, a personal group tasting event hosted by The New Zealand Whisky Company CEO at the club AND even a return flight from Canada to New Zealand for one lucky whisky drinker.

A sporting or whisky club in Canada must register online before midnight Sunday 17 January 2013 UTC. More details and where to register can be found here
