An easy drinking whisky from the folks behind Sheep Dip, allegedly named for being 'as soft as a pig's nose'. It's a blend with a high malt content and a youthful, fruity edge.
Aged for five years and charcoal filtered for smoothness and a delicious smoky aftertaste - this is a very popular but difficult-to-find Beam, great for bourbon cocktails.
The late 2012 release under Bruichladdich's Octomore label, peated to a fairly astounding 169ppm. Expect fire from the cask strength and lots of smoke, but also some elegance hiding behind the fireworks.
A heroically naff Tormore 5yo from the 1980s. The hexagonal bottle and ever-so-slightly OTT retro font and labelling take this to a level of magnificent unfashionability. You couldn't find a better gift for a postmodern whisky collector (if such a thing exists).
More smoky insanity from the folks at Bruichladdich, this time with the barley peated to 167ppm. This Octomore is named for Comus, the son of Bacchus (the Roman god of wine and partying), and has been finished in a Sauternes cask. This is limited to 2 bottles per customer
A very rare distillery bottling of whicky now-closed Glenesk. The distillery closed in 1985 and has since been dismantled, with the buildings now used for malting barley.
