Rampur Double Cask Indian Single Malt
$108.99
The word that India can make world-class single malt whisky has made its way to Canada and the rest of the world over the past 20 years. Amrut led the way, making headlines for its tremendous quality. Next came Paul John, with its rich, barley-driven style. Joining those two well-regarded whiskies is Rampur.
The Rampur Double Cask Indian Single Malt Whisky is matured in a combination of ex-Bourbon Barrels and European Oak ex-Sherry Casks.
Bottled at 45%.
From The Producer
"Rampur is distilled in traditional copper pot stills in the oldest distillery in India, dating from 1943 with 80 years of distillation expertise. The Himalayas provide polar opposite of climate conditions throughout the year with the flavor of the famous Indian Summer giving Rampur an added dimension and depth."
G&M Discovery Glenrothes 11 Year
$99.99
Glenrothes in Sherry. Makes sense. A lot of times, indie bottlings are pretty drastic departures from a distillery's widely recognized profile, but every now and again we end up with something that sticks closer to the tried and true. This one is of comparable age, drinking strength, and obviously cask type, to core range bottlings from the distillery... but almost certainly better. Because let's face it, Gordon & MacPhail have a sort of 'Midas Touch' with Sherry casks. A sure bet at just shy of three figures (that penny still counts).

Indri Single Malt Indian Whisky

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."

"Expertly matured in quality Pedro Ximénez & Oloroso Sherry puncheons, the casks have imparted rich, fruity notes that mingle harmoniously with warming wisps of peat smoke. Made using mainland peat from St. Fergus, the sweet phenolic content of the whisky amounts to 35 PPM. A lengthy fermentation period of 160 hours results in a fruit-forward spirit"

"Each striving to better the last, Batch 10 is a true illustration of the artistry and expertise that creates every drop of our liquid gold. To deliver our classically Sherried profile, Billy hand-selected Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso casks to be married with spirit maturing in red wine barriques and medium toast/medium char American virgin oak barrels. The result is a well-balanced, yet complex malt with distinctive notes of dark fruits and layers of warming sweet spice. Presented in its purest form at natural cask strength of 58.6%, without added colouring or chill-filtration."

Producer Description
"To craft The GlenAllachie Wine Series, we first expertly matured our spirit in American oak ex-Bourbon barrels. Subsequently, the whisky underwent additional maturation for over two years in wine barriques skilfully sourced by Master Distiller Billy Walker, imparting a distinctive twist onto the GlenAllachie spirit.
"Located in the heart of Portugal, the Douro Valley is one of the world’s oldest protected wine regions, established in 1756. With the country’s highest wine classification as a Denominação de Origem Controlada (DOC), this historic region is a significant producer of robust, characterful red wines. The barriques selected have imparted richness of both colour and flavour to our Speyside malt, offering decadent layers of dried stone fruits and delicate hints of warming spice."
