G&M CRN57 The Cairn 18 Year
$144.99
This 18 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%

Macaloney's Washington Peat Ex-Bourbon
$101.99
Producer Description
"This is our "single cask" peated whisky series which allows whisky enthusiants and new-comers alike, to explore the unique terroir of peat from a variety of peat bogs around the world. It also explores the impact of oak casks used for maturation, from a variety of wines.
"Never before had any whisky distillery had the opportunity to peat smoke barley at their distillery and apply this to exploring the terrior of peat coming from Canada, the USA and Scotland, or peat infused with Pacific west-coast seaweed harvested by First Nations. Distilled using local barley peat-smoked at our distillery to 54 ppm with local peat from the Olympic Peninsula. It was then fully matured in a carefully selected Bourbon cask, blanketed with fresh maritime island air."

Producer Description
"A delicately smoky single malt, evolving from our Ploughing Edition, this expression is matured in a combination of ex-peated refill Bourbon barrels and red wine casks, offering a beautifully balanced profile of soft red fruits, floral sweetness, and gentle bonfire smoke. This whisky captures the subtle complexity of peat influence without overpowering the spirit’s natural elegance."

Ardnamurchan Peated Sauternes Cask
$115.99
This fully peated Ardnamurchan was initially matured in ex-Bourbon casks for 3 years, before finishing for another 3.5 years in Sauternes casks. 50%.
Decadent Drams Ardnamurchan 7 Year
$229.99
Bottled at 53%, this 7 year old Ardnamurchan is the product of whisky from 2017 and 2018, including 2 peated malts matured in refill Oloroso (2017) and an unpeated malt matured in 1st fill Oloroso Sherry (2018).
Producer Description
"This is a sort of sequel to Whisky Sponge Edition No.100. We took a similar approach but on a smaller scale and with a slightly lower targeted bottling strength of 53%. The objective being to achieve immediate and maximum quaffability, while once again drilling into this rich profile of peat, small cask influence and sherry. We took three octaves of Ardnamurchan to make this bottling: two sibling v.17 peated refill oloroso octaves were marred for around four months in a refill barrel with a v.18 unpeated first fill oloroso octave. The result, we are confident, is lip-smackingly delicious!"
Decadent Drams Bowmore 14 Year
$419.99
Bottled at 53%, this 2011 Bowmore was bottled after 14 years in a Refill Cask. 88.22pts Whiskybase
Producer Description
"This is Bowmore in its purest form: an 14-year-old (distilled in 2011) that puts the distillery’s character front and centre. Matured in refill wood and bottled at 53% after a touch of reduction, it’s all about clarity and precision rather than oak influence. Expect smoke and seawater, elegant dry peat, and a citrus-edged fruit profile that keeps things lifted and bright. Originally destined for full cask strength, it showed its best self with just a few degrees brought down – a decision that lets the spirit’s elegance truly sing. A Bowmore for those who want distillery character unfiltered, uncompromised, and utterly compelling."
