Amrut Kurinji Single Malt
$114.99
Kurinji was a neat little surprise when we were tasting our way through the Victoria Whisky Festival. Our good friend Ashok pulled this out and poured a dram, with a big smile on his face. It was easy to smile along. This is a ridiculously pretty little sipper. Easy going and very charming. The label says Batch 1, so hopefully we see more editions in the future.

Talisker NAS Special Releases 2023
$189.99
Mid-level peated malt from western Isle of Skye. This non-age stated Talisker seems to be a variant on Port Rhuighe, but cranked up to 59.7% abv. This one should be an absolute powder keg!
Mortlach NAS Special Releases 2023
$449.99
This is an NAS bottling of Mortlach, but with the price, we have to assume it has a bit of age behind it. The whisky was bottled at 58% after finishing in ex-Kanosuke Japanese Whisky and ex-Pinot Noir Casks.
Lamy-Pillot Chass Mont Morgeot
$92.99
This small Burgundian producer makes wines that overdeliver in the rarified world of Pinot Noir. Complex, age-worthy and stunningly delicious.
Quinta Do Noval Port Black Reserve
$33.99
Quinta do Noval is a highly regarded Port producer whose vintage wines are amongst the most sought-after in the world. The Black is a new Port wine; a vintage style with an average age of two to three years that requires no decanting, nor does it throw any sediment. They claim that the bold, rich, and concentrated style makes an ideal pairing chocolate and we agree. When cold weather is coming, chocolate and Port will help get us through it!
