PEPPERED STRAWBERRIES WITH CREME ANGLAISE: Drinking Tip: "The first impression is that of a walk on a warm summer’s evening in a garden with a variety of flowers - with every turn of the head new aromas delicately trying to get our attention. Next to the flowery notes there is sweet tobacco leaves, honey brioche and Crème Anglaise. The taste is velvety and mouth coating like a soft leather glove or melted butter and a lively finish of peppered strawberries with single cream. With the addition of very little water we detected a fruity cocktail or fruit punch with cinnamon and lime. The taste is now of fresh ripe strawberries, star fruit and barley sugar soaked in rum. Give this make, distilled on the grounds of the Glenlossie distillery since 1971, time at every stage and you will be richly rewarded." Drinking Tip: "When in need of some sunshine."

BUTTERY WAFFLES ON POLISHED WOOD: Panel's Tasting Note: "The nose was delightfully sweet – toffee sauce on ice-cream and banana, apple pie, corn candies, iced caramels, dusty muesli and dried apricots; added interest came from flowers, sawdust and fag packets in an oriental massage parlour. The unreduced palate had golden syrup, maple syrup, chocolate fondue with fruit and a dusting of oaky spices (cinnamon, nutmeg, clove); quite bourbon-like. On the reduced nose, leather and polished wood supported the sweetness of buttery waffles and salted caramel. The palate was sweet yet musky, like a Mars Bar with old spice – lip-smackingly tasty, we thought. The distillery is near the Ayrshire coast." Drinking Tip: "After a nice lunch or with banana split dessert."

Tasting Note from www.whiskyfun.org

"It is the 12th release of Brora. Already! An incredible Brora and I couldn't believe it's all from the 1977 vintage, since there are obvious notes of '1972' (and adjacent vintages). So the peat is less discreet than I had thought, while the rest is of an incredible complexity, sometimes soft and elegant, sometimes bigger and full of seashells, oysters, seaweed and tar. I remember having found, both in the nose and in the palate, some verbena, some absinth (that was in the 1978 as well, now I remember) some kippers, smoked salmon and even fish oil, a lot of wax (of course), some grapefruits, some liquorice and a feeling of bone dry white wine of very high quality. And in the finish, a slight smoky and fresh acridness that I simply adored. Having said thatr I have to confess I was a little disappointed because I had hoped Diageo would have granted us with a 40 yo 1972 this year, but in fact I found this new 35 quite... flabbergasting. That, I remember very well."The 12th release of Brora, a 2013 bottling was distilled in 1977 and bottled at 49.9%. Rumours abound that this could be the final bottling of this iconic whisky, but only time will tell. 95pts from Serge at Whisky Fun.

Loch Lomond Organic Single Malt 12 Year

$84.99

A lovely fresh new organic single malt bottled by Loch Lomond Distillers, and a big move away from their tired old expressions. Lots of honey, malt and toast oak with citrus notes in the background. Who knew they were planning to move in this direction 12 years ago? Kudos!
