  Macbeth Angus 31 years old Glen Garioch Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 54.6%

  Item no.: 059763-615-74

  Quietness can be an asset.
  Those who stand in the shadows
  are the silent witnesses,
  messengers ready to do their bidding.
  
  Much has been seen and any sweetness
  which has been gathered in,
  will be balanced by the darker acts of war,
  plotted under paraffin light.
  There is spice in the tales told.

  Macbeth First Murderer 18 years old The Isle of Mull Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 50.5%

  Item no.: 059763-615-70

  Pallid, with a reek of woodsmoke
  and tallow candles.
  Salt sweat on the brow.
  Lean shanked, yet muscular.
  
  Downtrodden, dismissed and angry;
  a denizen of the darkest taverns.
  For a few coins, as night falls,
  a throat will feel its bite, a child will die;
  money runs thicker than blood.

  Macbeth First Witch 19 years old Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 51.7%

  Item no.: 059763-615-71

  Three figures bent over a cauldron in the mist, a prophecy whispered out over the heather, and a 19-year-old Ardbeg dressed for the occasion.

  Expert Review

  Macbeth First Witch 19 Year Old is an Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky from Ardbeg, matured in Pedro Ximenez casks and bottled at 51.7%.

  First Witch is the opening bottle in the Witches series, part of Livingstone's wider Macbeth Collection, where every release is named after a character from Shakespeare's tragedy and illustrated by British artist Quentin Blake. Underneath the imaginative label sits an unadulterated Ardbeg, left to rest on Pedro Ximenez casks so it can pull both sweetness and depth from the dark sherry wood. 1,800 bottles of this release were filled.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Tar and peat smoke meet a deep, dark sweetness of dried fig and raisin, with a hint of fish leather in the background.

  Palate

  Bold and oily, where the smoke is carried by syrupy sweetness, dark chocolate and a touch of salted liquorice.

  Finish

  Long, dry and smoky, with a final wave of spiced sherry and ash from an old bonfire.

  Macbeth Lady Macduff 31 years old Linkwood Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 48.2%

  Item no.: 059763-615-75

  A gentleness of manner and vulnerability
  is what you find on first acquaintance,
  at home among spring orchards and drifts
  of honeysuckle, the troubled world
  seemingly unknown.
  
  But there are deeper layers to test you;
  a firmness of resolve, a steel at the heart.
  The tongue may seem sweet,
  but can also be cutting.
  Do not be deceived.

  Macbeth Menteith 31 years old BenRiach Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 53.1%

  Item no.: 059763-615-73

  Maturity brings forth a relaxed air.
  This is now a life of ermine,
  the satisfaction of sweetmeats and spices,
  fruits and flowers.
  
  Yet for all the damask rose
  and sandalwood, at the core
  lurks a hint of smoke; Comfort pushed
  aside and darkness embraced.
  The muscles flex anew, power grows.
  It will act.
