Raasay Quercus Humboldtii Oak Cask
$139.99
Quercus whatnow? Quercus Humboldtii is an oak species from Colombia apparently. No - not British Columbia. That would be Quercus Garryana. Quercus Humbolldtii is also known as Andean Oak and is native to Colombia and Panama. Thanks Wikipedia!
Anyhow, this single malt from Raasay Distillery was fully matured in Colombian Oak before being bottled at 50.7%. If you are looking to see how Columbian oak changes a whisky versus the more typical French, Spanish, or American oak casks, now is your chance!
Producer Description
"Introducing our Oak Species Maturation Series, showcasing how individual species of oak interacts with our Isle of Raasay single malt spirit during maturation to create complexity, depth and flavour in abundance. This fully Colombian oak matured whisky offers delicious flavours of crème brûlée and heather smoke and is undoubtedly a whisky you’ll want to keep on going back to."

Moss Wood Amy's Red Blend
$43.99
Amy's Red Blend from Moss Wood is both a customer and staff favourite at Kensington Wine Market. Vintage after vintage, this Bordeaux-style blend punches well above its price point. The 2024 vintage contains 72% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Merlot,9% Petit Verdot, and 8% Malbec.
Established in 1969, Moss Wood is an important, founding estate of the Margaret River wine region in the northern sub-region of Wilyabrup, Western Australia. Clare & Keith Mugford, as winemakers, viticulturists & proprietors, have been making wine & tending the vineyard at Moss Wood since 1984 & 1979, respectively. Their exacting viticulture ensures the production of high-quality fruit, and they have created a stable of fine wines distinguished by their consistency over each vintage, along with their ability to age superbly.
They have put significant effort into developing an appropriate style for each of their wines, but Cabernet Sauvignon, their first wine, is still the primary focus. Naturally, they looked to the great wines of Bordeaux for inspiration and carefully examined the factors that have made Bordeaux the benchmark for Cabernet Sauvignon.
As they were making wine in Margaret River inspired by those of the Medoc, they felt it was important to consider the Bordeaux environment as opposed to Margaret River’s individualistic climate and terroir. Wine writer Jancis Robinson has called them the Chateau Latour of Australia, and, we might add, for a fraction of what Latour costs.
Mayu Pedro Ximenez
$19.99
This may be the only Pedro Ximenez grown in Chile, and it's unclear if it's the same PX as in Spain (responsible for the sweet style of Sherry). The vines are grown on decomposed granite, quartz-rich soils, and might be the highest vineyard in Chile. Unlike the Spanish versions, the wine is fermented fully dry, and the wines tend to keep good freshness and moderate alcohol. It offers appealing floral and fruit aromas, with flavours balanced by fresh acidity, minerality and a long finish. It would be great with shellfish, paella and other seafood.
Macallan 12 Year Sherry Oak 43%
$174.99
The Macallan Sherry Oak 12 Year has returned to Canada for the first time in what seems like a decade. It is limited, and it might be a while until we see it again. Matured exclusively in hand-picked, sherry-seasoned oak casks from Jerez, Spain. 43%. It has also taken our Scotch Guy by surprise, exceeding his expectations.
Producer Description
"The Macallan Sherry Oak 12 Years Old forms part of our Sherry Oak range which features a series of single malt whiskies matured exclusively in hand-picked sherry seasoned oak casks from Jerez for richness and complexity. A matured character, the 12 Years Old delivers rich wood spice and dried fruits and a natural rich gold colour."
Oud Beersel Bzart Kriek
$43.99
Producer's notes:
The BZART Kriekenlambiek is a natural, sparkling cherry Lambic of Belgian origin. Traditional Kriekenlambiek is a spontaneous fermentation beer: Sour cherries are added to the Lambic beer which is the oldest of the still existing Belgian beers that probably originated around the year 1300.
The ‘Kriekenlambiek Oud Beersel’ which serves as a basis for the BZART Kriekenlambiek contains 400 g of cherries
per litre undergoing fermentation in Lambic beer for six months.
Its taste and aftertaste are quite ‘fraîcheur’ (fresh). The nice almond flavours make you remember the real ‘kriekentaart’
(cherry pie) of the good old days. It is a delicious aperitif and perfect to pair with dark chocolate preparations, blue-veined cheese, duck, game and all preparations with almonds. Bzart Kriekenlambiek is mentioned on the menu of renowned restaurants.

GlenAllachie Meikle Toir The Chinquapin
$91.99
‘Meikle Tòir‘ (big pursuit) is GlenAllachie's heavily peated Speyside single malt. The 5 Year Old Chinquapin One started its maturation in ex-Bourbon Barrels, and then was finished in Chinquapin Virgin Oak Barrels. Botted at 48%.
From The Producer
"Coming in at 35 PPM, the whisky has a sweeter style of smoke character owing to the mainland peat from St. Fergus used to kiln the barley. After a lengthy 160-hour fermentation, the whisky has a complex character which stands up well to ageing in virgin oak casks."
