Ardbeg 1998 - Almost There 70cl / 54.1% Following on from Very Young and Still Young, Ardbeg Almost There showed the final stage in the evolution of young cask-strength Ardbeg 1998 before it blossomed into the Renaissance 10 yr-old. As you would expect, this is a mellower, more rounded, better balanced dram than the younger incarnations. £74.95 inc. VAT (£63.79 ex. VAT) Ardbeg 1998 / Renaissance 70cl / 55.9% Ardbeg Renaissance is the end of the series that began with the 'Very Young' 6yo which now changes hands for silly money on eBay. This is the first 10-year old Ardbeg that is entirely comprised of spirit produced after Glenmorangie's takeover of the distillery in 1997. A fitting end to the series. £74.95 inc. VAT (£63.79 ex. VAT) Ardbeg Uigeadail 70cl / 54.2% A fine drop of Ardbeg bottled at cask strength. A marriage of Ardbeg from bourbon barrel and sherry butt which gives a sweet and smokey finish to this malt. Uigeadail is the loch from which all Ardbeg water flows. An absolutely stunning whisky, and following the demise of the Airigh nam Beist this probably represents the best value in the core range. Web-Exclusive Price! £47.95 inc. VAT (£40.81 ex. VAT) Balvenie 17 Year Old / Sherry Oak 75cl / 43% This 17yo Sherry Oak Balvenie is an unusual expression as most Balvenie has a significant proportion of American oak in the mix. £84.95 inc. VAT (£72.30 ex. VAT) Bushmills 1608 / 400th Anniversary 70cl / 46% A special bottling to commemorate the 400th anniversary of the license to distil aqua vitae in Antrim originally granted in 1608 to Sir Thomas Phillips. Bushmills 1608 has already won 'Best Irish Blended Whiskey (No Age Statement)' at the World Whiskies Awards 2008. Web-Exclusive Price! £48.95 inc. VAT (£41.66 ex. VAT) Clynelish 1992 / 15 Year Old 70cl / 46% Another of our gorgeous Bourbon-casked Clynelish releases, this is a vatting of two complementary casks, with a delicious bramble and briar character. Single Malts of Scotland Offer: Free Tasting Glass With Every Bottle! £48.49 inc. VAT (£41.27 ex. VAT) Longrow CV 70cl / 46% A NAS Longrow to accompany the 18 year-old that most of us will never get a bottle of. Subtle it aint, but fans of peaty, citrussy young drams will not be disappointed. Picked up the top prize in its category at the World Whisky Awards 2010. £30.49 inc. VAT (£25.95 ex. VAT) Springbank 1997 / 1st Batch 70cl / 55.2% A tremendous return to form for Springbank. This is a small batch of re-charred sherry butts and the results are terrific. Sweet toffee, smoke and spices, with great depth and length. Definitely one of the most welcome releases of the year. £74.95 inc. VAT (£63.79 ex. VAT) White Bowmore 1964 / 43 Year Old 70cl / 42.8% After 2007's new Black Bowmore, this White Bowmore is the second of the new 1964 Trilogy series, and has spent its life in bourbon casks, so should make for a very interesting contrast. Awarded 94 points from John Hansell in Malt Advocate, this was one of the most talked-about releases of 2008. £2,400.00 inc. VAT (£2,042.55 ex. VAT) Show 10 25 50 products per page.
