Whiskyland Ch.6 Islay 38 Year
$1,524.99
This 38 year old malt is a Bowmore which dares not speak its name... 1985 vintage, bottled at 44.6% from a Refill ex-Bourbon Barrel. 87.92pts Whiskybase & 90pts Whisky Fun
Producer Description
"As any visitors to Whiskyland will be aware, Flowermore is a curious single malt, renowned for producing some of the world’s worst whisky during the 1960s and early 1970s, it miraculously recovered for a violet-flavoured quality boom in the 1980s. This is one such cask of that amazing liquid. One of the very best 1980s Flowermore you are ever likely to taste! Soft violets, exotic fruits, intricately detailed peat smoke and less perfume than a branch of Boots that’s been hit with a 50-megaton Tsar bomb!"
Equinox & Solstice Bunnahabhain 11 Year

This 11 year old Bunnahabhainwas created from lightly peated malt matured in a first fill oloroso sherry hogshead married with heavily peated malt matured in a first PX Sherry Hogshead. Bottled at 48.5%.
Producer Description
"This is our Winter 2024 edition of Equinox & Solstice series. It's a 2013, 11 year old, peated Bunnahabhain matured in sherrywood. To make this we combined a 1st fill Oloroso sherry hogshead of lightly peated Bunnahabhain Ardnahoe, with a 1st fill PX sherry hogshead of heavily peated Bunnahabhain Staoisha. This mix was left to marry for a couple of months, before being bottled at this series' trademark easy dramming strength of 48.5%. It's a big, rich, velvety and generously peaty Bunna, full of comforting smoky warmth and nicely assertive and salty sherry character. A perfect companion for winter nights and good cheer."
