Decadent Drams Teaninich 13 Year
$160.99
54.5% - 2011 - First Fill ex-Bourbon
87.61 Points Whiskybase
Producer Description
"A 2011, 13 year old Teaninich. Matured in a 1st fill hoghsead and bottled at natural cask strength. This is simultaneously both a modern and an old school whisky. It is delicious but discombobulating. You will probably find yourself, much like our label cover star, Ozark the Drambot, confounded and existentially torn between the incompatible dualities of his existence. However, we would appreciate it if you didn’t focus too much on that outcome and still purchased bottles like a dutiful consumer." -
Old Orkney Malt 21 Year
$553.49
52.9% - 2003 Refill Hogshead / 1999 First Fill ex-Bodega Sherry Butt
89.18 points Whiskybase
Producer Description
"This is our third official Old Orkney bottling. A multi-vintage, small batch 21 year old Orkney single malt, bottled at natural cask strength with a beautiful and rich sherrywood influence. We married together equal parts Orkney Malt from two different casks. First, a 2003 plain oak refill hogshead, second, a 1999 1st fill ex-bodega sherry butt. The whisky from these two casks was combined and married in a 2nd fill sherry butt for at least six months, before being bottled at natural cask strength. The result is a big, very robust and well-sherried Orkney single malt, with a very rugged, drying and salty sherry profile, underpinned by a gentle thread of Orcadian peat smoke. Old school and hugely characterful Orkney single malt!"
About the Old Orkney Brand
"Very early on in the Decadent Drinks story, Angus had the idea to see if he might be able to buy the historic, but long dormant, Old Orkney brand. AKA: 'Double O'. After all, nothing ventured, nothing gained. The reason for this is that one of the big influences upon Angus' approach to bottling and branding, was the old 'Double O.O.' brand. It was originally the bottling brand of Stromness Distillery on Orkney, which sadly closed in 1928. After that time the brand quickly fell into dormancy and was used only very sporadically in the intervening decades."
Equinox & Solstice Bunnahabhain 11 Year
$183.74
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."
Decadent Drams Loch Lomond 19 Year
$284.79
54.8% - 2005 - Heavily Peated - First Fill ex-Bourbon Barrel
89.14 points Whiskybase
Producer Description
"A single barrel of heavily peated Loch Lomond, distilled in 2005 and matured for 19 years before being bottled at natural cask strength. This cask was pretty active and has really concentrated the tarry and peat flavours in this whisky. It's a very big and extremely satisfying whisky that blends older style elements with much more modern characteristics."
Old Orkney Malt 25 Year
$656.99
50.3% - 1999 - Matured in "plain refill wood" and finished 6 years in a First Fill ex-Bodega Oloroso Sherry Butt. 91pts Whisky Fun
Producer Description
"The fourth bottling in our occasional but cherished Old Orkney series is a 1999, 25 year old Orkney malt that has spent the majority of its life in plain refill wood, then the final six years of its maturation in a very, very old 1st fill, ex-bodega, oloroso sherry butt. The result, bottled at natural cask strength, is a richly sherried example of very mature Orkney single malt, that leaves all the wonderful distillery character intact, but decorates it in great detail with some beautifully intricate and old school sherry characteristics. This one is deeply earthy, gamey and rich, with gentle peat smoke, waxes, hessian and nicely savoury, salty notes. A beautiful dram and a wonderfully old school example of sherried Orcadian single malt."

$137.99
57.1% - 2018 - 2nd fill ex-Islay barrel
86.75 points Whiskybase
Producer Description
"It's not often that Decadent Drinks dons kevlar and tiptoes south into the Englandshire, but on this occasion, for a very special knees up and several jars of foaming English ale with our friends at Spirit Of Yorkshire distillery, we made the exception. The result of this mission is this wonderful wee cask of Spirit Of Yorkshire. Laid down in 2018 and fully matured in an ex-Islay barrel which has given it a furtive smooch of peat, this is a beautiful, rich and gently smoky young example of this charming English make. Please note: Velociraptor nurses and pimped forklift trucks are not included with the sale of this bottle."
Decadent Drams Miltonduff 22 Year
$427.49
52.8% - 1991 Refill Hogshead & 2002 Second Fill Barrel
Producer Description
"This Decadent Drams bottling takes two refill casks of Miltonduff, born more than a decade apart, and blends them into something far greater than the sum of their parts. One brings robust cereal spice and nutty heft, the other delivers honeyed fruit and floral finesse. Together, they create a beautifully mature dram with a waxy richness that feels like it’s folding time in on itself. The kind of whisky that defies both reality and entropy and will be found lurking at the end of existence, orbiting a black hole. Unless, of course, you scoff it all first..."
Decadent Drams Caol Ila 13 Year

Producer Description
"Scottish peat and Jerez sherry influences are expressed nowhere more vividly than in the ancient art of Flamencooo dancing. This wonderful Decadent Drams single cask Caol Ila 13 year old, matured fully in a 1st fill sherry hogshead and bottled at natural cask strength, celebrates these two potent influences and pays tribute to the Cooonicorn and its exotic, naughty, hypnotising, rhythmic hoof-pounding."
