Old Particular Craigellachie 15 Year
$191.99
The Old Particular label is owned by Douglas Laing, which is one of the two Laing brothers companies that went their separate ways back in 2013. Douglas Laing is owned by Fred Laing and his family. The other half of the family is Hunter Laing, which is owned by Stewart Laing and his family.
Isn't family grand? Kind of makes one wish that their own family had enough tradition and money to split a company over, doesn't it?
Anyhow. This particular and somewhat old bottling of Craigellachie was distilled in May 2006 and eventually finished in a Sherry Butt (Ref DL15424), then bottled at 57.9% ABV. and 15 years of age.

Ardbeg Vintage Y2K 24 Year
$1,099.99
This 24 year old, 2000 vintage Ardbeg was matured in ex-Bourbon & Sherry casks before finishing in Amontillado sherry. 47.8%
Producer Description
"This ultra-rare whisky is the first in a highly limited collectors’ series created from the spirit of this milestone Ardbeggian year. In 2000, the Distillery returned to glory after decades of neglect and the loyal Ardbeg Committee was formed.
Aged in the finest bourbon and Oloroso sherry casks around, this smoky anomaly is intensely sweet and classically peaty. Aromas of lemon balsam reminisce with linseed oil and heather honey, while soot and peppermint stir up memories of ground coffee and aniseed on the palate."
