Producer Tasting Note
Nose: extremely complex, atmospheric, and delightfully old-school. It drops you straight into an Italian antique shop full of deep rancio and wood oil, before wandering out into a west coast tractor shed - all machine oils, metal polishes, and rough hessian sacks. there is a heavy, tactile note of damp clay that places you squarely in the pottery scene from ghost with Patrick Swayze. this industrial weight is balanced by a burst of sweet-tart fruit: rich berry compote, sharp cranberry juice, and chewy apple and strawberry fruit leather.
Palate: oily, savoury, and wonderfully bizarre. the arrival is led by the sharp, dry warmth of black mustard seed and the soft, slightly oxidised sweetness of a bruised yellow apple. A splash of rose’s lime cordial cuts through the mid-palate, before it shifts gears into a distinct, leafy green herbal territory defined by star anise and fresh tarragon.
Finish: long, lingering, and unashamedly funky. the savoury theme continues right to the end with texturing notes of wholegrain mustard, tart unripe berries, and a final, grounding echo of wet, earthy clay

The Scottish Distillery that makes nearly every style of whisky possible has been putting out great bottlings for quite a while now. This new 25 year old has us excited to taste it ourselves - the limited 21 Year from a year or so ago was a delicious sleeper hit. Bottled at 46% ABV, the whisky was distilled using Loch Lomond's unique straight-neck pot stills and then matured in a combination of first fill, refill, and re-charred American Oak casks.
Producer Description
"Our 25 year old is a celebration of our remarkable stills, our distillery's signature style, and the creation of flavour through distillation and maturation.
Crafted exclusively from our unique Straight Neck stills, our master blender Michael Henry, has brought together three different spirits from these stills, each with a range of styles and collection strengths. The spirits are then matured in first-fill, refill, and re-charred American Oak casks for 25 years and carefully married together, resulting in a rich, complex whisky with notes of toasted oak, caramel, and cinnamon spice."

We are on always on the hunt for value, and a 27 year old Glen Garioch at 49.3% for just a tad over $300 fits the bill! This 1998 vintage Glen Garioch was supposedly matured in an oloroso sherry cask, but when the chaps at Thompson Bros. nosed it, they were pretty confident it was actually a Fino Sherry cask. Based on references in the tasting note, they might be right. Exclusive to KWM in Canada!
Producer Description
"We recently received a butt of Glen Garioch 1998, purchased blind based on the outstanding quality of previous casks from this vintage and with confidence, as the purchase order specified a 1st fill sherry butt. However, upon arrival and during our routine sensory analysis (someone's gotta do it), it became immediately apparent from visual assessment that this was not typical of 1st fill oloroso or px sherry, as we had initially expected. Instead, the spirit presented pronounced saline notes, followed by chamomile and fresh bread dough - characteristics that strongly suggest this cask is, in fact, a 1st fill fino sherry butt. We are now highly confident in that conclusion. the combination of distillate, time and oak interplay beautifully here. The nature of buying blind can be a bit risky, but very often those risks pay off in very interesting ways."
