Tormore Legacy 2012 12 Year Cask 800313
$129.99
This 12 year old Tormore is one of the first-ever official single cask bottlings. Distilled in 2012, the whisky matured in a Refill ex-Bourbon Barrel (cak 800313) before bottling at 52.3%.
Producer Description
‘Legacy’ single cask series is a celebration of Tormore’s past and the people that have made it. Polly Logan, Tormore Distillery manager, has hand-picked a selection of the distillery’s vintage casks, all matured in ex-bourbon barrels where the wood profile perfectly complements Tormore’s intrinsic, fruity and elegant character. Single casks have been previously available in rare, small batches from independent bottlers -but ‘Legacy’ is the first official distillery single cask release under the Elixir Distillers stewardship."
Craigellachie 17 Year
$116.99
Craigellachie has some of the best packaging in the biz, no two ways about it. Not only is the branding for their age-stated range straight out of the 1800s, but the whisky in the bottle seems almost as archaic. And we mean that in the best possible way. And those age statements? All prime numbers! So far we've seen a 13, 17, 19, 23, 31 and 51. Love it! Expect a chewy, malty experience from days gone by. A bit more challenging, and meant for the true afficionado.
Holyrood Noir Bordeaux Yeast Single Malt
$94.99
One of three whiskies in Holyrood's "Noir Trilogie", 1er Cru Champagne yeast was used in the fermentation, with the spirit maturing in ex-Bourbon as well as Chardonnay and White Wine casks. 47.2%
Producer Description
"The Noir Trilogie Bordeaux Yeast is full of berry nice notes of cherries, strawberries and blackcurrants, with just a hint of Scottish tablet. The Holyrood Noir Trilogie weaves a story that sees French wine yeast plot unexpectedly with Scottish malt before pursuing a classic romance with wine casks, uncovered from the finest vineyards. "
Craigellachie 13 Year
$56.24

Producer Description
"Craigellachie 13 Year Old evokes Bonfire Night: aromas of oozing toasted marshmallows, fire-roasted pineapples and baked apples studded with cloves, with the tang of cordite lingering in the background."

Dumangin Whisky Benrinnes 2008
$159.99
Gilles Dumangin doesn't make things easy on himself when he wraps his whiskies in wine. He has a habit of stacking the deck against himself by picking distilleries that boast some of the most challenging profiles in all of Scotch Whisky: Benrinnes, Ardmore, Fettercairn, Craigellachie. These aren't exactly the most mild-mannered of malts. It's a testament to the man's craft. I love the whole 'if you're going to swing, swing for the fences' mentality.
This Benrinnes spent 10 years in a Refill Hogshead before 23 months in Ratafia Champenois.
347 bottles. Natural colour and non-chill-filtered. 48%

$91.99
