Single Malt Whisky

A half bottle of Bowmore's 12 year old whisky, a great place to start your journey through the smoky mystery of Islay's single malt whiskies.

Long known as 'the gentle dram' Tomintoul 16yo is soft and nutty, with a pleasant richness. A Gold Medal winner at the International Wine & Spirits Competition (IWSC), this is a cracking dram for the money.
Please note that this is a 35cl bottle!

The Loch Lomond distillery was built in 1965 (presumably Captain Haddock had access to a time machine), and produces all kinds of single malt, grain and blended whiskies on its potstills, Coffey stills and Lomond stills. This Loch Lomond single malt is the least peated product from the distillery, with little or no smoky notes discernible.

Glen Moray's no age statement entry level single malt - easy drinking and honeyed.

A half bottle of Glenmorangie's ever popular 10 year old - a perfect introduction to the world of Single Malt Whisky.
Please note that this is a 35cl bottle

A no-age-statement entry-level Glen Grant, this is a very accessible, approachable malt ideal for beginners.

A small bottle of Glenfiddich's excellent 18 year old single malt Scotch whisky. Great as a sampler before buying a big bottle.

A no-age-statement expression from Speyburn. Bradan Orach means Golden Salmon, according to our exhaustive research.

A half bottle of Bowmore's sherry finished 15 year old. It's finished for three years in oloroso sherry casks for rich, chocolatey and spicy flavour along with Bowmore's trademark maritime peatiness.

An interesting spicy dram from Glen Moray - a 10 year old whisky entirely matured in Chardonnay casks. The start of what we hope is a continuing line of new whiskies from this often overlooked distillery.

A half bottle of Glenfarclas's excellent high proof sherry monster, 105.

A young and peaty single malt whisky from an unnamed Islay distillery, this has garnered praise for its straight to the point smoky flavour.

The first new bottling since the distillery began production in 1998 after a 15-year lay-off. The whisky is young, but has a delicious dollop of peat and plenty of fresh, ripe flavours. A very welcome return.

Isle of Jura 10yo is a very accessible, easy-drinking malt. Medium-bodied with a delicate sweet palate, with a hint of brine developing on the finish. A great introductory malt.

A no-age-statement Auchentoshan released in 2008, Classic is aimed at drawing in new drinkers to malt whisky, and has the easy-going drinkability to do the job. Not only that, but Auchentoshan Classic has now received a Kosher endorsement.

Given that Miltonduff is the seventh largest distillery in Scotland, one would think that it would be more common - however the vast majority of its output goes into the Ballantine's blends. This G&M bottling has an attractive grassy, fruity character.

A very approachable Glenrothes bottled at 8 years old by Gordon & Macphail for their Macphail's Collection. Not the most complex Speyside you'll ever encounter, but it's fantastically easy to drink.

A Gordon & Macphail release of whisky from Wick's Pulteney distillery, aged for 8 years.

A mystery Islay single malt from an unnamed distillery, purported by many to be Lagavulin, which somehow seems a little unlikely to us. That said, this is a terrific dram for the money and likely to appeal to frugal peatheads.

A 10 year-old Glenburgie, the little seen workhorse malt for the Ballantine's blends.
