Decadent Drams Bunnahabhain 12 Year
$231.99
This 12 year old Bunnahabhain was originally matured in a Refill Hogshead before finishing in Fresh Sherry. 57.1% 87.36pts Whiskybase
Producer Description
"A whisky with salt on its lips and stories to tell. This 12-year-old Bunnahabhain spent its life balanced between refill wood and fresh sherry casks (roughly half and half), drawing on the best of both: the distillery’s coastal soul sharpened by refill, and its richness deepened by sherry. We bottled it with a few degrees knocked back to 57.1% – our favourite strength, where the spirit shows muscle and clarity without losing finesse. This is whisky for derring-do, for bold adventures and sea-swept journeys, for maps that end at the horizon and stories that begin in the glass."
Bruichladdich Octomore 16.1
$269.99
This 5 year old Octomore was distilled in 2019, from a 2018 harvest, peated to 101.4ppm, and bottled after 5 years in ex-Bourbon casks at 59.3%.
Producer Description
"16.1 is crafted using 100% Scottish Mainland Concerto Barley, malted to 101.4 PPM and aged in cask for 5 years, with an ABV of 59.3%. This elegant liquid is matured in first-fill bourbon barrels, bringing forth intense peat smoke with surprising delicacy. Salted caramel, honeyed melon and apricot lead into chocolate and coconut, accompanied by a soft wave of earthy minerality and lingering smoke."
Kavalan Peatist ex-Bourbon Cask
$264.99
This is a peated Kavalan (not a peated cask) bottled from a single ex-Bourbon cask at cask strength. 54.8%.
Producer Description
"Crafted from premium peated malt and aged in select American bourbon casks, this whisky balances refined wood spice, crisp vanilla, and Kavalan’s hallmark tropical richness. Lightly smoky yet beautifully layered and harmonious, non-chill filtered to preserve its true essence."

Armorik Yuen Elez Breton Single Malt
$99.99
From Warenghem Distillery in Brittany, France. The Armorik Yeun Elez Single Malt Breton Peated is a Peated Breton Single Malt Whisky (see how I changed the order of these words to make myself sound smart?), distilled from peated malted barley imported from Scotland with a spec of 50ppm. Sadly, we only managed to get 50ml bottles of this limited release, not the full size.
Producer Note
"Launched in September 2020, Yeun Elez is the result of the distillery’s foray into peated territories. We offer you a peated variation of our Armorik single malt : we use Scottish 50 ppm peated malted barley, water from our own source and our artisanal know-how. Breton Single Malt whisky, it has been distilled and matured to highlights its delicate, elegant, and fruity peat."
