ARDBEG - 10 Year Old 70cl Bottle
Ardbeg Ten Years Old is a very special bottling for the Ardbeg distillery as it is the first non-chill filtered whisky in the Ardbeg range.

Ardbeg Ten Years Old is whisky with none of the goodness taken out and as good as straight from the cask. Who would believe that back in 1981, the distillery fell silent and was mothballed? Fortunately in 1997, to the delight of fans all over the world Glenmorangie plc rescued Ardbeg and a team of dedicated souls set about repairing and reviving the distillery (not to mention repainting it!). Now, once again Ardbeg flows freely.

BALVENIE - Doublewood 12 Year Old 70cl Bottle
The Balvenie Doublewood Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a 12 year old single malt which gains its distinctive character from being matured in two woods. During its period of maturation The Balvenie Doublewood is transferred from a traditional oak whisky cask to a first fill Spanish oak sherry cask. Each stage lends different qualities to the resulting single malt - the traditional casks, having previously held bourbon, soften and add character, whilst the sherry wood brings depth and fullness of flavour. The nose is Sweet fruit and oloroso sherry notes, layered with honey and vanilla. The taste is a smooth and mellow single malt of beautifully combined flavours - nutty sweetness, cinnamon spiciness and a delicately proportioned layer of sherry - with a long and warming finish.
BALVENIE - Single Barrel 15 Year Old 70cl Bottle
The Balvenie Single Barrel Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a 15 year old single malt which is drawn from a single bourbon cask of a single distillation. Each cask forms a limited edition of hand-numbered bottles - there will be a maximum of 350 bottles from any one cask - so each bottle is unique and unrepeatable. Each cask is subtly different, however, The Balvenie Malt Master selects for bottling only those casks that have the essential characteristics of The Balvenie Single Barrel - particularly honey, vanilla and oaky notes. The nose is a fragrant aroma of vanilla honeyed sweetness, hints of heather and dry oaky notes. The taste is rich and complex, suggestive of years of careful ageing, it has a honeyed maltiness with vanilla oak flavours, and hints of spicy peat notes. It has a long and complex finish with a touch of liquorice. 'Silky, rich and complex; a stunning mix of red jelly fruit, guava, orange peel and honey. Magnificent.' Dave Broom, The Handbook of Whisky.
BALVENIE THIRTY 70cl Bottle
Limited stock. The Balvenie Thirty is a rare and especially fine single malt for which David Stewart selects only exceptional casks that were laid down over thirty years ago.

'Thirty' is bottled at 47.3% abv to capture all the signature characteristics of The Balvenie. Nose: Silky smooth and honeyed on the nose with mellow oaky tones and hints of candied orange peel. Taste: Great depth with rich dark chocolate, hints of plum, marzipan and caramelised pear. Finish: Exceptionally smooth and warming with gentle spice and lingering sweetness.
BARON de SIGOGNAC - 10 Year Old 70cl Bottle

The 10 year old Baron de Sigognac delivers an exceptional and rare taste. Mild yet fiery at the same time like a gently toasted Arabica coffee. The aromas embody a wide range evoking floral followed by fruity notes yet overall dominated by the sensation of a perfect balance between fruit and spices. Cigar lovers will enjoy it with a classic Havana; without doubt, a cigar with average chewiness and a light spicy smoke adding roasted touches striking a common chord of balance and strength. We advise for example a Tainos - Rey del Mundo.
