Morris Single Malt Signature Whisky
$93.99
Single Malt Whisky from the land down under! Morris Whisky is made by the people behind Morris Wines, and is matured in ex-fortified wine casks made of either French or American Oak. Bottled at 40%.
Wormtub 10 Year Single Malt 56.9%
$76.99
This Speyside Single Malt Scotch was re-racked into first-fill ex-Sherry casks. It was bottled at 10 years old and 56.9% ABV.
What is this? I high strength, 10-year-old single malt that is also heavily sherry influenced AND at a reasonable price? Has the world gone mad?!? Not quite, but the crafty crew at That Boutique-y Whisky Company might have. TBWC cannot say which Speyside distillery this whisky was sourced from, but they do use worm tubs. Hmm... that narrows down the possibilities a bit. Craigellachie or Mortlach are likely the two most famous Speyside distilleries to utilize worm tubs, but they are not alone. Glen Elgin, Cragganmore, Balmenach, Benrinnes, and Speyburn do as well. There might be a few others too.
Lakes Distillery Volar Single Malt

Laphroaig 25 Year Cask Strength 2023
$879.99
The 2023 release of Laphroaig 25 Year was matured exclusively in ex-Bourbon, before bottling at 47.3%. 90.67pts Whiskybase
Producer Description
"An evolution of the flavours in the classic Laphroaig 10 we all know and love, our 25 Year Old Cask Strength started its journey in 1998 – well before the age of social media and hyperconnectivity. Matured for a quarter of a century, non-chill filtered and bottled at cask strength to preserve its full flavour, our 2023 expression is a truly powerful one.
"In its teenage years in the ex-bourbon casks, there is a prominent sweetness of red berries and vanilla. Then, like many strong-natured teenagers, this spirit emerges into its twenties slightly softened and more well-rounded. Now, the fruitier notes have time to come to the fore and blend with the ever-present smokiness.
"Wave after wave of tropical flavour with a long, smoky finish and quintessential Laphroaig aftertaste – these historic and evolved flavours will surely appeal to whisky connoisseurs around the world wanting to savour a taste experience 25 years in the making."

$2,799.99
the 5th and final release in the Laphroaig Ian Hunter Story is "Enduring Spirit", a 34 year old bottled at 45.5%, originally distilled in 1988 and "double matured in a combination of first fill ex-bourbon American Oak barrels and Pedro Ximénez European Oak Hogheads." 90.59ps Whiskybase
Producer Description
"Book Five: Enduring Spirit is the culmination of our Ian Hunter series, a collection of aged single malts celebrating and paying homage to the lasting impact that one remarkable man had on Laphroaig’s history. This final release celebrates the lasting legacy of the final member of the Johnston family to own and manage the Laphroaig distillery. This is an exceptionally rare whisky in a very limited series – owning it is to own part of our history and our heritage.
"Ian Hunter had astounding vision for Laphroaig’s future, and he nurtured its growth alongside the rich heritage of Islay and its people. Thanks to this dedication and passion, the Scotch whisky you enjoy today boasts such a distinctive flavour that sets it apart from the crowd.
"It was he who introduced the American Oak ex-Bourbon barrels to our maturation process following his travels to the United States, and he who established our malting floors that we use to this day. Ian’s vision and influence gives our whisky its iconic flavour and continues to direct our distillery’s practices and techniques, both from the infrastructure he put in place and the legacy he left behind for all generations of our distillery team to be inspired by.
"The fifth and final instalment in this iconic series is a 34-year-old single malt with intriguing flavours of classic Laphroaig peat combined with accents of fruity blueberry and sweet, rich butterscotch. This combination of classic and modern flavours showcases the evolving vision and individuality that Ian Hunter had in mind for Laphroaig whisky, making it certainly a legacy of spirit that will endure."

About Roger's Whisky
"Roger started his whisky journey in 1995, where many of us started: as a casual enthusiast of single malts, appreciating the nuances and subtleties between whiskies and distilleries. In 2019 he started photographing whisky bottles for his Instagram. He delighted in meeting great, like-minded, from all over the world; talking about whisky, and just plain having fun! After a while, Roger was struck by the dream of setting up his own whisky company. So, that's exactly what he did. He made his dream come true, with the arrival of Roger’s Whisky Company in 2020. Starting modest, but with big ambitions - and plenty of the best whisky along the way."
Mythical Beasts Bruichladdich 30 Year
$999.99
We don't see a lot of 30 year old Bruichladdich anymore, and this one, relatively speaking, is pretty reasonably priced, and with good reviews. Bottled at 53.3% the cask type isn't specified, but it is probably ex-Bourbon. 89.33pts Whiskybase
Mythical Beasts Glenrothes 34 Year
$1,499.99
34 year old cask strength, heavily sherried, Glenrothes, for less than the 25 year official bottling... and it has a good Whiskybase score! Bottled at a perilously low cask strength of 42% after maturing its whole life in Oloroso Sherry! 89.25pts Whiskybase
