Single Malt Whisky

A Gordon & Macphail bottling of 10yo Balblair, one of the Highland's finest distilleries.

A 1997 vintage bottling from Gordon & Macphail, as part of the Connoisseurs Choice series, of whisky from seldom seen Glendullan. This was matured in refill sherry casks, so expect a bit of fruit.

A 1997 vintage whisky from Inchgower, seldom seen as a single malt due to the vast majority of its production going into the Bell's family of blended whiskies. This was bottled by Gordon & Macphail under their Connoisseurs Choice label.

Dufftown's 12 year old whisky, the cornerstone of the Diageo single malt range in Europe, presented here in a pack along with two chunkky based tumblers.

A 2003 vintage whisky from Macallan, bottled by Gordon & Macphail under their Speymalt label.

A recently-introduced variant from the under-appreciated Tomintoul, this has been finished in an Oloroso sherry cask and is soft, sweet and creamy. Great value, as always with this distillery.

A statement of intent from Bruichladdich master distiller Jim McEwan, showing his vivions for Port Charlotte spirit - peated to 44ppm and vatted from various vintages.

A 12 year old whisky bottled under the Inchmurrin label, a lightly peated whisky produced at the Loch Lomond distillery. This is part of the 2013 relaunch of their range, produced to show off the variety of whiskies they make.

A 1999 vintage whisky from Glenallachie, a young distillery whose whisky almost all goes into the Chivas Brothers blends. Fortunately the folks at G&M squirrel away whisky from all over Scotland, giving us a chance to try gems like this.

Named for a country estate near to the distillery, Fasque is the unpeated regular bottling from Fettercairn.

Hazelburn is the unpeated malt made by Springbank at their Campbeltown distillery. This 'CV' edition is a blend of different ages designed to act as the perfect introduction to the Hazelburn style.

Immensely popular Glenfiddich variant. Using a Solera system common in the maturation of quality sherry, 15yo malt from three different types of casks is married together in a wooden vat, which is constantly topped up to ensure the quality is maintained.

Caol ila 12 Year Old is of medium weight, but still packing plenty of potent phenols, this is a refined, powerful dram with a compensating oiliness. A balanced, peaty beauty.

A medium-full honeyed malt with attractive youthful brio from Glenturret, famous as the home of Famous Grouse - and for Towser, the former distillery cat who caught nearly 30,000 mice.

Replacing the 10 year-old as the main expression of the Lowland style in the Classic Malts range, this Glenkinchie 12yo is a bit fuller and more complex.

Balvenie Signature 12yo replaced the Founders Reserve 10yo as the staple in the distillery's range. This is a marriage of Sherry, Bourbon and Refill casks and, as always with Balvenie, it's a polished, mellow whisky to relax with.

The 2011 revamp of Ledaig, with new packaging and a solidly peaty whisky. Good work from Tobermory.

A peated Speysider from Tomintoul, this has been bottled at 50% abv and at this price is well worth a look for peatheads looking for something a bit different.

A relaunch in fancy packaging for Burn Stewart's Deanston single malt, previously famous as the whisky used in the much-missed Wallace whisky liqueur. Trivia snitched from the Malt Whisky Yearbook: Deanston is the only distillery in Scotland that is self-sustaining for electricity, being equipped with a dam and a turbine.

A very special distillery-bottled Clynelish 12yo from ex-sherry European Oak casks, originally bottled for the Friends of the Classic Malts.
