$71.99
This 12 year old "Blended Malt" is part of a range of whiskies released by Gordon & MacPhail to highlight what they are doing at The Cairn Distillery. The distillery's own whiskies won't be ready for some time, but in the interim they have created bottlings to show what the spirit might be like in 12, 18, 25, 30, 40, 57, and 70 years. The Cairn Distillery sits at 57 degrees north latitude-wise, hence the name CRN57 for these releases. 43%
Glenmorangie Nectar D`Or 16 Year
$129.99
The new Nectar' D'Or has some age on it... 16 years, and the cask makeup has been tweaked too. After maturing 14 years in ex-Bourbon, the whisky is now finished for a further two in a marriage of four different sweet wine cask types: Sauternes, Monbazillac, Moscatel, and Tokaji. 46%
Producer Description
"For extra depth and creaminess, silky Glenmorangie aged for 14 years in bourbon casks was selected. The whisky was then finished for two more years in a new combination of sweet white wine casks.
"Sauternes and Monbazillac casks from France bring sumptuous notes of pastry, brioche, meringue and baked apples. Moscatel casks from Spain offer sweet, syrupy dessert-like notes. And Tokaji casks from Hungary, add white chocolate, almond and honeycomb flavours to their creation."

G&M CC Ledaig 1993 Cask 706
$1,174.99
They are calling it Ledaig, but there is no mention of peat in the tasting note, so is it actually Tobermory? We've seen this before... Prior to the mid-2000s Tobermory was produced almost exclusively for blending. At this time even the unpeated make was often put into cask labelled as Ledaig, the distillery's original name! This 1993 vintage Tobermory/Ledaig is bottled at 57.2%
