Indri Single Malt Indian Whisky
$84.99
Bottled at 46%
Producer Description
"The seed for the nectar of the gods was sown in the barren desert. Many millennia have passed since barley has bloomed in the inhospitable climate of Rajasthan. For our uncompromising quest to create the finest spirits, we use the traditional Indian six row barley, which is cultivated using old indigenous practices that rely on organic and sustainable methods. The yield may be smaller but it lends a fruity and floral distinctive taste to the spirits."

Nomad Reserve 10 Year
$112.99
What happens if you age and/or bottle Scottish Whisky outside of Scotland? In most cases, you can no longer call it Scotch whisky!. That is part of the story behind Nomad Outland Whisky, which is made from a blend of Scotch Whiskies that were shipped to Jerez, Spain to mature.
The Nomad reserve 10 Year Old Triple Cask spends 6 years in Scotland, quietly maturing in American Oak ex-Sherry Casks. After this, the whisky is sent to Spain for further maturing in PX Sherry Casks and then further, further maturation in Oloroso Sherry Casks.
The result is bottled at 43.1% ABV, because 43% is obviously far too low.
From The Producer Marketing Department
"There was a time when the nomads revealed places, cultures and knowledge to us together with a different way of looking at life . Today, everything is changing and it seems that there is nothing left to discover, that the whole world enjoys the same things, at the same time and very fast. But there is always an exception to the rule. We simply need to sharpen our senses and look beyond the horizon, like a true nomad, to discover something new and authentic, a new frontier that only we have reached."
Black Bull Peated Edition Blended Scotch
$54.99
Indie Bottler Duncan Taylor has been producing Black Bull Blended Scotch Whisky since the 1990s, but the brand was actually started more than a century before that. The blend was first introduced back in 1864 and has undergone quite a few iterations since. The two things that set Black Bull apart from many other blends are its high malt content and using 50% ABV as its standard bottling strength.
This Peated Edition of Black Bull contains a larger portion of peated malt whisky than the usual bottlings. It is a blend of 50% malt and 50% grain whisky, once again bottled at 50% ABV.
