Singleton of Glen Ord 17 Year Old Special Release 2025 Into the Blue Single Malt Scotch Whisky 55.5%

Singleton of Glen Ord 17 Year Old "Into the Blue" is a bold and imaginative single malt that explores new territories while preserving its Highland identity. As part of Diageo's Special Releases 2025, this edition showcases the distillery's adventurous spirit through an unusual maturation process that includes ex-Mezcal casks and second-fill ex-Sherry casks. The result is a whisky where sweetness, spice, and a touch of smoke merge into a rich and layered experience.

The nose immediately reveals a vibrant and fruity character. Dried apricot, caramel, and vanilla rise from the glass, creating warmth and depth. A subtle hint of agave and smoke from the Mezcal cask adds an exotic edge and hints at the complexity to come.

The palate is round and creamy with layers of tropical fruit, roasted nuts, and spiced honey. The Mezcal influence brings a delicate, smoky minerality that enhances the texture, while the sherry cask adds richness and a soft sweetness that balances the spice.

The finish is long and intricate with lingering notes of spice, nutty undertones, and a touch of toasted oak. It is a whisky that invites reflection and rewards curiosity, offering new nuances with every sip.

The Jane Street Collection The Original One Woodrows of Edinburgh Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky 48.5%

The Original One from The Jane Street Collection is a Highland single malt in which Woodrow’s of Edinburgh presents a whisky focused on purity, balance and the natural character of the spirit. While other releases in the series explore specific cask types in depth, The Original One is created as an honest and unadorned expression of the Highland style at its core: fruit, malt, gentle spice and a subtle influence from oak.

The whisky opens with a bright and inviting aroma of green apples, pear and citrus supported by a soft malt note. Beneath the fresh fruit lies a smooth touch of vanilla and a hint of honey, adding warmth and depth without overshadowing the lighter elements. It is a clean and well‑balanced nose that clearly reflects Woodrow’s intention to let the spirit itself take centre stage.

On the palate, the whisky is soft, rounded and slightly oily. The fruit from the nose continues with apple, pear and a touch of peach, while the malt provides structure and body. The oak contributes a discreet spicy edge and a light vanilla sweetness that ties the flavours together. The 48.5% ABV gives the whisky energy and lift without overpowering the delicate nuances, enhancing the freshness and giving the flavour a clear and precise expression.

The finish is medium‑long and elegant, with notes of malt, citrus and a gentle dryness from the oak. It leaves an impression of purity and finesse, and the lingering fruitiness makes it exceptionally easy to enjoy.
