  • Blackadder Black Snake bottle with black serpent label
    Item no.: 059763-615-1135

    A snake sheds its skin but keeps its venom. Black Snake works on the same principle: every time a portion is drawn off, something stays behind in the cask, and the next release inherits it.

    Expert description

    Blackadder Black Snake Vat No. 17 Third Venom is a Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in First Fill Bourbon and an Oloroso Sherry Butt and bottled at cask strength, 59.6%.

    The series runs on a solera-inspired system. The whisky first matures in first fill bourbon casks and is then moved into an oloroso sherry butt. From there a share is bottled while the rest is topped up with fresh bourbon-matured whisky. That means a remnant of the very first Black Snake is always present, and every bottling carries a little of all the ones before it.

    Vat No. 17 identifies the cask, and Third Venom records that this particular cask has been drawn from three times. Blackadder does not disclose which distilleries the malt comes from, which is standard practice for the house's vatted releases.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Full sherry straight away, followed by vanilla, spiced oak and dark fruit. At cask strength the concentration on the nose is considerable.

    Palate

    Powerful and oily. Caramel, dried fruit, spice and roasted nuts arrive in layers, and the alcohol carries all of it without cutting.

    Finish

    Long, warm and layered with clear sherry character and the intensity cask strength brings.

    Robin Tucek, the man behind Blackadder, declined to patent the method behind the house's Raw Cask releases. His explanation was that nobody else would dare filter as roughly as he does.

    Expert description

    Big Peat Feis Ile 2024 The Thropaigeach is a limited edition of the Islay blend, created specifically for the 2024 Fèis Ìle festival, bottled at 48%. Big Peat was launched in 2009 by independent bottler Douglas Laing & Co as the first in the company's 'Remarkable Regional Malts' series. The idea was to create the 'ultimate distillation of Islay' by blending single malt whisky from several of the island's distilleries, including Caol Ila, Bowmore and Ardbeg, without using grain whisky. Big Peat is non-chill filtered, with no colouring added. Each year Douglas Laing releases a Christmas Edition of Big Peat at natural cask strength, and at Islay's Fèis Ìle whisky festival, special limited editions are regularly released.

  • Bottle of Rampur Asava Single Malt Whisky with wine cask finish
    Item no.: 059763-615-973

    Asava means "grape juice" in Sanskrit, and the name is no coincidence. For the first time in whisky history, Rampur has rested a single malt on Indian Cabernet Sauvignon casks, and the result stands apart.

    Expert's description

    Rampur Asava Single Malt Indian Whisky is an Indian Single Malt Whisky matured in American bourbon barrels and then finished in Indian Cabernet Sauvignon casks, bottled at 45%.

    The wine cask finish is the first of its kind from Rampur and gives the whisky a wine-like, almost fruit-forward character that balances the classic bourbon sweetness from the first maturation.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    The nose offers red berries and a hint of grape, underpinned by vanilla from the bourbon barrels.

    Palate

    The palate is full-bodied with dark berries, a touch of tannin from the wine cask and an underlying caramel sweetness.

    Finish

    The finish is long, with a flawless balance between wine-like acidity and soft vanilla.

  • Bottle of Rampur Double Cask Single Malt Whisky from India
    Item no.: 059763-615-972

    At the foot of the Himalayas, where the air is thin and the temperature swings are dramatic, Rampur ages a whisky that refuses to choose between America and Europe. Double Cask is the result of that decision.

    Expert's description

    Rampur Double Cask Single Malt Indian Whisky is an Indian Single Malt Whisky matured in both American bourbon barrels and European oak sherry casks and bottled at 45%.

    The two cask types mature separately before being married, so the vanilla and sweetness from the bourbon barrels meet the dried fruit and spice of the sherry casks. The result is a round, approachable whisky that shows what the high-altitude Himalayan climate does to maturation.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    The nose offers delicate, almost balsamic vanilla notes mingling with caramel and a hint of dried fruit.

    Palate

    On the palate, rich caramel, dark dried fruit and spice unfold, tying the two cask types together.

    Finish

    The finish is soft and lingering, with a last touch of spiced oak.

  • Bottle of Thy Whisky Spelt Rye Core Expressions Danish Rye Whisky 70 cl
    Item no.: 2222374-25

    Spelt and rye from the northwest Jutland fields. Thy Whisky Spelt Rye takes whisky in an unexpected direction – away from classic barley and into a grain world that suits the north Jutland climate best.

    Expert description

    Thy Whisky Spelt Rye Core Expressions is a Danish Organic Rye Whisky bottled at 48.5% in a 70 cl bottle. Distilled from a blend of certified organic spelt and rye – both grown locally in Thy. Floor-malted and double distilled in-house. Spelt and rye give a markedly different flavour picture than a traditional barley single malt – more spiced, more earthy and with a complexity that surprises.

    Spelt is an ancient grain with roots in north European agricultural tradition. In whisky it adds a nutty and slightly sweet dimension that complements the rye's natural spiciness.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Spiced and lightly nutty with rye bread and a little citrus. More earthy than the standard Core Expressions.

    Palate

    Spiced rye core with spelt's nut sweetness. Light pepper and a touch of baked grain. Well balanced.

    Finish

    Moderate and spiced with malt sweetness and light warmth at the end.

    Item no.: 2222374-24

    In Thy they grow the grain themselves. Malt it themselves. And distil it themselves. Thy Whisky Core Expressions is the result – an organic single malt that says something clear about the place it comes from.

    Expert description

    Thy Whisky Core Expressions is a Danish Organic Single Malt Whisky bottled at 48% in a 70 cl bottle. The distillery uses home-grown, certified organic barley from the Thy area and malts it in-house. It is a single estate expression in the true sense – grain, malting, distillation and maturation all take place on or close to the same piece of land in northwest Jutland.

    Core Expressions is Thy Whisky's flagship single malt – the clear, unpeated foundation against which all other expressions from the distillery are measured. A good introduction to the northwest Jutland whisky style.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Fresh and malt-sweet with light fruits, honey and a little heather blossom. Clean and inviting.

    Palate

    Soft malt core with sweetness, light nut and biscuit. Round and approachable.

  • Mannochmore Signatory Vintage sherry cask whisky bottle
    Item no.: 059763-615-937

    Mannochmore sits quietly behind its sister distillery Glenlossie in Speyside, spending most of its life supplying malt for Diageo blends rather than standing in the spotlight. When it does step out under its own name, it is worth paying attention.

    Expert's Description

    Mannochmore 2012/2024 Signatory Vintage 100 Proof Edition #13 is a Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in a first fill oloroso sherry butt and bottled at 57.1%.

    Signatory Vintage's 100 Proof series gathers single casks from across Scotland, bottled at the old-fashioned strength once known as "100 proof", translating to 57.1% on today's scale. The cask has given this Mannochmore a dark, sherry-driven character that contrasts with the distillery's usually light, floral house style.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    The nose opens with dark chocolate and raisin, chestnut honey and a touch of orange peel, tying the sherry sweetness to the malt's underlying cereal note.

    Palate

    The palate is full-bodied with brown sugar, dried figs and spiced oak, while the cask strength adds a warm, almost peppery bite that holds everything together.

    Finish

    The finish is long and spicy, closing with a last trace of dark marmalade and toasted almond.

    Item no.: 059763-615-936

    Behind the label "Secret Speyside" hides one of Scotland's most sought-after distilleries. Signatory Vintage chose well here — 13 years in cask, 46%, bottled in 2023.

    Expert description

    Secret Speyside 2009/2023 Signatory Vintage 13 Year Old is a Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky distilled in 2009 and bottled in 2023 at 46%. Behind the anonymous name is Macallan distillery — a common practice among independent bottlers who purchase casks directly from distilleries. Signatory Vintage, founded in 1988 by Andrew Symington, is one of Scotland's most respected independent bottlers, known for selecting and bottling single cask whiskies with minimal intervention.

    13 years is a fine age for Speyside spirit — old enough to have rounded off the sharper edges, young enough to retain fruit character and vitality. The result is a whisky that moves from a gentle, fruity nose to a lightly sweet, spiced palate with good balance.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Stewed plums and vanilla with soft malt notes. Light shortbread and icing sugar, supported by a hint of citrus and light syrup.

    Palate

    Sweet entry with golden syrup and vanilla cream. Citrus notes emerge — bergamot and pomelo — with light oak behind.

    Finish

    Medium length and sweet with a touch of spiced oak. Banana and soft freshness linger.

    Item no.: 059763-615-935

    Some whiskies whisper their origin instead of shouting it. Secret Orkney keeps its distillery under wraps on the label, but not in the glass — a single-batch bottling from Signatory Vintage, thirteen years in the making on Orkney's salt-swept air.

    Expert Description

    Secret Orkney 2009/2023 Signatory Vintage 13 Year Old is a Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in refill hogsheads and bottled at 46%.

    The distillery behind the discreet name cannot be printed on the label, but Orkney is home to only two distilleries, and the cask codes point firmly towards Highland Park. Signatory Vintage filled the whisky into a run of refill hogsheads, cask numbers DRU 17/A67-9/-10/-13/-21, without adding colouring or chill filtering before bottling.

    The whisky was distilled on 31 March 2009 and left to mature until January 2023, when 483 bottles were filled — a small, hand-picked release that shows Orkney character in an unfiltered, natural state.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Heather blossom and a whisper of smoky peat meet salt sea air and ripe apple, with a soft honey sweetness underneath tying it all together.

    Palate

    Soft and lightly oiled, with citrus peel, toasted malt and a warm spice run of ginger and clove. The natural colour keeps the flavour clean and direct.

    Finish

    Medium in length, gently peated towards the end, with a lingering heather sweetness and a touch of salted caramel that fades slowly.

  • Ardmore 13 year old Signatory Vintage bottle from second fill bourbon casks, Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky
    Item no.: 059763-615-874

    Second fill after Islay. Two words that say a great deal: the cask has held bourbon, then a heavily peated Islay, and now Ardmore for thirteen years. There is not much force left in the wood, and that is exactly the point.

    The Expert's Description

    Ardmore 2009/2023 Signatory Vintage 13 Years Old is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in second fill bourbon casks after Islay whisky and bottled at 46%. It was distilled in 2009 and bottled in 2023 in Signatory’s Un-Chillfiltered Collection.

    The difference from a first fill is marked. A second fill cask gives up less vanilla, less colour and less tannin, so Ardmore’s own peated character gets far more room. What Islay phenols remain in the staves are correspondingly muted, sitting as a suggestion rather than a layer.

    Thirteen years is a long time for a cask that gives little. The result is a whisky where the spirit stands at the front and the wood keeps to the background. The whisky is neither chill filtered nor coloured.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Dry smoke and toasted malt first, with honey and a light citrus peel behind. The vanilla is subdued, and a clean cereal note runs through it all. This is the spirit talking, not the cask.

    Palate

    Malty and dry. The smoke arrives early and stays, with honey and baked apple underneath. There is a light saline undercurrent from the cask’s Islay past and a dry, peppery turn mid-palate. At 46% the body is good without being heavy.

    Finish

    Medium and dry. Ash, malt and a lightly bitter oak note that lets go cleanly.

    Did You Know?

    Ardmore was the last Scottish malt distillery to use coal-fired stills. Only in 2001 did it switch to steam heating. Direct fire gives a slightly more scorched, meaty spirit, so whisky distilled at Ardmore before the turn of the millennium has a different character from what is made today.

    Item no.: 05974447-123

    Port wine and dark chocolate is a classic pairing — Douglas Laing tries the same combination in liquid form with this year's Scallywag release.

    Expert's Description

    Scallywag The Chocolate Edition 2024 is a Speyside Blended Malt Scotch Whisky from Douglas Laing, finished in port wine casks and bottled at 48%.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Brown sugar and dark berries mingle with dried figs and a warm spice note.

    Palate

    Round and sweet with port-driven fruit, vanilla and a hint of ginger.

  • Bottle of Glenlossie Wilson & Morgan sherry Speyside whisky
    Item no.: 059763-615-691

    This elusive Speyside distillery is almost never released as an official bottling – and even among independent releases, it's a rarity. Wilson & Morgan has captured a young, sherry-toned expression that shows a different side of Glenlossie.

    Expert's Description

    Glenlossie 2013/2023 Wilson & Morgan 10 Year Old is a Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky bottled at 46%.

    Distilled in 2013 and bottled in 2023 by Wilson & Morgan, from a refill hogshead with a 2-year finish in a first-fill Oloroso sherry butt, Cask No. 131-32/135-36, yielding 1,423 bottles. The influence of the two years in sherry cask is clear in the wine-toned, faintly tart note on the nose.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Wine-toned and faintly tart, with raisin and a hint of dried blackcurrant over the cereal Glenlossie base.

    Palate

    Round and sweet, with caramel and dark fruit, carried by a soft sherry tone that never turns heavy.

    Finish

    Medium length, with a faintly tannic close and a last hint of raisin.

  • Ben Nevis 2014 Signatory Decanter Collection 8 years Highland Single Malt
    Item no.: 059763-615-685

    The bottle sits low and broad with a short neck, closer to an apothecary jar than a whisky bottle. Signatory has used that shape for its Decanter Collection for years, and it stands out on the shelf against everything else in the range.

    The expert's description

    Ben Nevis 2014 Signatory Vintage 8 years Decanter Collection is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in Oloroso sherry butts and bottled at 46 % without chill filtration and without added colour.

    The Decanter Collection is the Signatory range in the distinctive broad bottle. The series holds a fixed bottling strength of 46 %, and casks are chosen for their ability to carry sherry influence without the distillery style disappearing. This whisky was distilled in 2014 and lay eight years in cask.

    Sherry butts hold around 500 litres, giving a lower wood to liquid ratio than smaller casks. Maturation is therefore slower and more restrained, and after eight years the weight of the Ben Nevis spirit still sits clearly beneath the dried fruit.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Dried fig, raisin and walnut with a dry sherry edge. Behind it sit malt and a suggestion of dark chocolate.

    Palate

    Full and dry with dark fruit, nut and spiced oak. The oily core of the spirit keeps the sherry in check all the way through.

    Finish

    Long and dry with nut, cocoa and a warm note of spice.

  • Ardmore 13 year old Signatory 100 Proof Edition #4 bottle from Oloroso sherry casks, Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky
    Item no.: 059763-615-631

    100 proof is not a round number, it is a historical measure. In the British system it corresponds to 57.1% alcohol, and that is exactly where every single bottle in this series sits, whatever the distillery and whatever the age.

    The Expert's Description

    Ardmore 2010/2023 Signatory Vintage 13 Years Old 100 Proof Edition #4 is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in 1st fill Oloroso Sherry Butts and bottled at 57.1%. Cask 137 was distilled in 2010 and bottled on 5 December 2023.

    The 100 Proof series gathers single malts from different Scottish distilleries, all bottled at precisely the same strength. That makes the series an unusually clean comparison: with the alcohol content identical, the differences between distillery and cask stand out without the strength clouding the picture.

    Here Ardmore’s peated Highland spirit meets first fill Oloroso wood. It is a forceful combination, since fresh sherry casks give dark fruit, tannin and colour in quantity, and the smoke has to work to get through. The whisky is neither chill filtered nor coloured.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Dark fruit first: raisins, prunes and preserved cherries. Beneath sit dry smoke and roasted nuts, along with a resinous sherry note that only first fill casks provide.

    Palate

    Full and dark. Raisins and bitter chocolate open, then the smoke arrives as a dry undercurrent alongside spiced oak and black pepper. At 57.1% the concentration is considerable, and sherry and smoke pull in opposite directions all the way.

    Finish

    Long and spiced. Dark fruit, ash and oak tannin, with a warmth that lingers well afterwards.

    The proof system comes from an old British method of checking whether spirit had been watered down: you poured it over gunpowder and set it alight. If the powder burned, the spirit was strong enough and had passed the proof. One hundred degrees proof was later fixed at 57.1% alcohol, and that is exactly the strength this series is bottled at.

    Item no.: 059763-615-543

    Organic whisky sounds like something invented last week. Benromach started in 2006, and the entire chain from barley to bottle is certified — something nobody had done before them.

    The expert's description

    Benromach Contrasts Organic 2013/2022 is a Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in virgin American oak and bottled at 46 %.

    The whisky was distilled in 2013 and bottled in 2022 after nine years in virgin American oak casks. It is neither chill filtered nor coloured, and the entire production is accredited by the British Soil Association from field to bottle.

    Benromach launched the world's first fully certified organic single malt in 2006. The Contrasts range is the distillery's playground, where they push one variable at a time — here both the organic barley and the completely new wood.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Sweet malt, banana and creamy vanilla. Virgin oak gives a clear sawdust freshness and a hint of coconut.

    Palate

    Malt rich and creamy with pepper, coffee and cocoa. The new oak pulls the whisky towards a carpenter's workshop and toasted sugar rather than the soft bourbon vanilla most people know.

    Finish

    Medium long, dry and spicy with cocoa, oak and a warm peppery close.

    Item no.: 059763-615-523

    Two hogsheads filled on the same day in 2008, bottled on the same day in 2021. Signatory prints both cask numbers on the label, and that is the whole difference between a named parcel and an anonymous batch.

    The Expert's Description

    Auchroisk 2008/2021 Signatory 12 Years Old is a Single Speyside Malt Scotch Whisky matured for twelve years in two hogsheads and bottled at 43%. It belongs to Signatory’s Un-Chillfiltered Collection and is neither chill filtered nor coloured.

    Two hogsheads give a slightly larger parcel than a single cask, but it is still a manageable quantity, and cask numbers 813968 and 813969 are printed on the label. Signatory has used that approach since 1988.

    Auchroisk sits in Speyside and was built in 1974 by Justerini & Brooks to supply malt for the J&B blend. The style is bright, citrus-driven and lightly spiced, a Speyside that sits closer to fruit than to sherry.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Bright and fresh. Vanilla, apple and a clear citrus note first, then honey and a lightly cereal pastry tone from the young spirit.

    Palate

    Soft and fruity. Vanilla and pear open, then citrus, a lightly peppered note and a dry oak tone arrive. At 43% there is good body, and the absence of chill filtration shows in the mouthfeel.

    Finish

    Medium and clean. Citrus, honey and a lightly spiced oak close.

  • Penderyn Portwood Single Malt Welsh Whisky bottle from Wales
    Item no.: 059763-615-518

    Some casks only add colour. Others add character. Penderyn Portwood belongs firmly to the second group — a whisky that has spent its time resting in old port casks until it tastes of something deeper than where it started.

    Expert description

    Penderyn Portwood is a Single Malt Welsh Whisky matured in port casks and bottled at 46%. It belongs to Penderyn's Gold range, which received a new bottle and label design in 2021, and it's long been a favourite among French drinkers, where the port-cask style sits naturally alongside the country's own wine culture.

    The casks give the whisky its weight: dried fruit, dark chocolate and toasted oak on the nose, and a creamy, honeyed palate that builds on Penderyn's clean, light spirit from the single Faraday still. Portwood has picked up gold at the World Whisky Masters on several occasions and gold at the IWSC, which says something about how well the spirit and the wood work together here.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    The nose offers dried fruit, dark chocolate and cranberry, tied together by a toasted, almost crisp oak note.

    Palate

    The palate is creamy and round, with honey and spice, and the port casks come through clearly without ever overpowering the spirit.

    Finish

    The finish lands softly on oak and honey and lingers, warmer than sweet.

    Portwood is one of Penderyn's best-selling bottles in France, where the whisky's port character matches the country's own fondness for fortified wine — and it has picked up multiple international gold medals, including at the World Whisky Masters in 2016, 2019, 2021 and 2023.

  • Ardnamurchan Cask Strength AD 2023 bottle, peated Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky at cask strength
    Item no.: 2222785588-

    The month code has gone from the name. From 2023 the series is called simply by the year, and it is the same kind of decision as when the batch number disappeared from AD/: the distillery has stopped numbering its way out of things.

    The Expert's Description

    Ardnamurchan Cask Strength AD 2023 is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky bottled at 58.1% full cask strength by Adelphi. It was composed from forty peated bourbon barrels and ten unpeated casks, bottled on 2 October 2023 in an outturn of 13,683.

    Ardnamurchan makes both peated and unpeated malt, and both styles go into this series. Cask strength means the whisky has not been diluted with water before bottling, giving more concentration and a clearer cask character than the house standard at 46.8%.

    The whisky is neither chill filtered nor coloured, and every bottle carries a QR code giving access to blockchain-registered production data. The distillery sits at Glenbeg on the westernmost mainland peninsula in Scotland.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Peat smoke and maritime salinity first, then vanilla and coconut from the bourbon wood. A clear cereal sweetness runs beneath it all, and at this strength the alcohol is up front, so let the glass rest a couple of minutes.

    Palate

    Powerful and oily. Vanilla, honey and baked fruit open, then the smoke arrives with weight along with black pepper and a dry oak note. The cask strength gives concentration, yet the whisky is not harsh.

    Finish

    Long and dry. Smoke, salt and spice, with a final malt sweetness lingering beneath it all.

    The bottling date is 2 October 2023, and it appears on the bottle. Ardnamurchan consistently states this sort of thing, the date, the cask split and the outturn, where most distilleries settle for a year. It makes it possible to compare two releases on something other than taste.

  • Ardnamurchan Rum Cask Release bottle, Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky with a Caribbean rum finish
    Item no.: 059763-615-452

    The cask has crossed the Atlantic twice. First as a bourbon barrel from Kentucky down to the Caribbean, where it held rum for a few years, and then on to a west-facing peninsula in Scotland. Three continents in one piece of wood.

    The Expert's Description

    Ardnamurchan Rum Cask Release AD is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky first matured in bourbon casks and then finished in Caribbean rum casks, bottled at 55% in 2023.

    Rum casks are not an obvious partner for peated whisky, but they work better than you might expect. Rum lays in a dry, almost green sugar cane sweetness quite different from sherry’s raisins or port’s red fruit. Together with Ardnamurchan’s saline maritime character the result reads tropical rather than sweet.

    The whisky is neither chill filtered nor coloured. Ardnamurchan sits at Glenbeg on the westernmost mainland peninsula in Scotland and has been distilling since July 2014.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Salted cashews and vanilla extract first, with a coastal breeze behind. Beneath sit dry sugar cane sweetness and a light peat smoke, along with a note of toasted coconut from the bourbon maturation.

    Palate

    Dry sweetness to begin, sugar cane rather than syrup. Vanilla and baked banana follow, then the smoke arrives along with a saline minerality. At 55% the texture is oily and full, and the rum cask gives direction rather than weight.

    Finish

    Long and dry. Salt, smoke and a final sugar cane sweetness that lets go slowly.

    Did You Know?

    The great majority of rum casks in the whisky world were originally bourbon barrels. Kentucky may only use its casks once, so they are sold on, first to the Caribbean for rum, then to Scotland for whisky. A single oak cask can therefore hold three different spirits across three continents before ending up as garden furniture.

  • Dalmunach 7 years Murray McDavid PX sherry finish bottle
    Item no.: 22227865364-354657

    Ximénez-Spinola is a small sherry house in Jerez working only with the Pedro Ximénez grape. Their casks rarely end up in whisky — but when they do, you can taste it.

    Expert description

    Dalmunach 7 years Murray McDavid PX Sherry Finish is a Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky finished in Ximénez-Spinola PX casks and bottled at 48.5% without chill filtration and without added colouring.

    The release belongs to Murray McDavid's Benchmark Series and was made in 2,062 bottles. Murray McDavid was founded in 1996 and has made cask finishing its signature — the house buys casks from named wine and sherry producers rather than settling for generic sherry wood. Dalmunach opened in 2015, so everything that exists from the distillery is young.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Dark and sweet. Raisin, date and dark chocolate, with a layer of young malt and cereal under the concentrated fruit.

    Palate

    Round and syrupy. Dried fruit, caramel and cocoa, with a lightly spiced edge from the oak. The 48.5% keeps the sweetness from turning heavy.

    Finish

    Medium and sweet, with raisin, nuts and a dry spiced close.

    Murray McDavid names the sherry and wine houses their casks come from. It sounds like a detail, but it is rare in the trade — most simply write sherry cask and leave the customer to guess at the quality.

  • GlenAllachie 10 Year Old Grattamacco – Tuscan wine cask finish
    Item no.: 2222786533368-1

    A journey to Bolgheri hides inside this 10 year old GlenAllachie. After its time in American oak, the spirit was allowed to rest in wine casks from Grattamacco, one of Tuscany's oldest and most respected wine producers, and the result is a honeyed elegance with a well-rounded finish.

    Expert's description

    Glenallachie 10 Year Old Grattamacco Wine Cask Finish is a Single Speyside Malt Whisky bottled at 48% ABV, matured in American oak casks and finished in wine casks from Grattamacco in the Bolgheri area of Tuscany, Italy. Grattamacco is considered the second-oldest wine estate in the area and is known for its powerful, earthy red wines, whose character now carries through into the whisky's casks.

    Only 15,600 bottles of this release exist globally, without individual bottle numbering, making it one of the more limited expressions in the Wine Cask Finish series.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    A honeyed sweetness settles first, supported by a light earthy depth from the Italian wine casks.

    Palate

    The elegance from the nose carries through to the palate, where honey and a warm cask spice balance one another neatly.

    Finish

    Well-rounded and gentle, closing without rushing or fading too quickly.

    Investment potential

    Medium. The collaboration with a renowned Italian wine producer like Grattamacco, combined with a limited global bottle count, makes this release interesting for collectors with an eye for rarer cask partnerships.

    Did you know?

    Grattamacco helped put the Bolgheri area on the wine map long before the region became known for its so-called "Super Tuscans" – a story the whisky's wine casks now carry forward.
