Aberfeldy 1990 - Gordon & MacPhail
Polished leather and spice with a sherry hint on the nose. The palete brings sweet treacle, dark chocolate and a faint whiff of smoke. The finish is long, spicy and the faint hint of smoke appears again.
|
£33.00 |
Aberlour A'bunhadh
A lovely cask strength Speysider, orange, black cherries, dried
fruit and ginger, spiked with dark bitter chocolate and enriched
with sherry and oak.
|
£39.75 |
Aberlour 16
A solid Speysider with dark chocolate, spice and substantial depth.

£46.00 |
Ardbeg 1993 - Gordon & MacPhail
Sweet smoke and oil on the nose, Oily on the palate with hints of stewed fruit finishing with rich smoke, and spices.
|
£40.00 |
Ardbeg Renaissance
Stuart and the gang have made great whisky here. The smoke drives through from the off, oily herrings, citrus burst, alcohol hit and big length. This is fine cask strength Ardbeg 10yo and a limited if you can resist drinking it.
|
£54.50 |
Ardbeg 1990 Airigh Nam Beist
Sea spray, peat, seaweed, pepper & oily fish, giving way to a citrus
hint before the peat and smoke come through. A smoky dream of an
Ileach.
|
£63.95
|
Ardbeg Corryvrecken
Big cask strength Ardbeg with citrus hints and loads of peat smoke as you would expect but surprisingly smooth even at 57% ABV and being quite young, not age statement but I would suggest circa 9 years for most of it - but do not hold me to it, I just remember when the first European Oak was laid down by Stuart which has been used for this..
|
£70.00
|
Ardbeg Uigeadail
Peat, smoke and fire with hints of the sea and iodine, almost medicinal.
A very powerful Islay cask strength.
|
£52.50 |
Benromach Organic - Gordon & MacPhail
Oak, vanilla and a delicate sweetness a possible a little fruit on the nose. The palate is fantastic rich oak, vanilla sweetness without cloying - Moffatt toffee anyone. The flavour lasts and fills your mouth. It might be young but it doesn't display it, this is a great whisky.
|
£31.50 |
Benromach Peat Smoke - Gordon & MacPhail
Sweet burnt sugar aroma with wood smoke and phenols. Coal smoke and barley fill the mouth finishing slightly sweet and malty - great whisky.
|
£28.50 |
Bladnoch 1993 - Gordon & MacPhail
Sweet, floral, a dry grassiness with a hint of spice & liquorice
- delicate & fragrant. A gentle lowlander.
|
£41.50 |
Bladnoch 16
Not a typical Bladnoch this one, heavier and thicker spirit with greater oak influence and a hint of bitterness at the finish. Different view of the normal floral one.
|
44.00 |
Bruichladdich Redder Still - Limted edition
Red cherry, pear pomegranate, red pepper, cinnamon, ginger, plum and rasin according to the distillery notes. ACEd in Ch. Lafleur Pomerol Bordeaux cask. Can't say I've tried it but a worthy collectors item if past laddies are anything to go by (so buy!).
|
£130.00 |
Bruichladdich - Link - Royal Birkdale - 15yo
The latest release in the Links series and timed nicely with the British Open that was held there this year. If it goes like the St Andrews then this will be a serious collectors item. It is so new there aren't any tasting notes yet and we've not done it. It hasn't been ACEd so it will be good bruichladdich. A very light Bruichladdich this one, gentle and soft. It won't challenge you but you will enjoy it.
|
£40.00 |
Bruichladdich - WMD II - Yellow Submarine
Soft sweet summer fruit with sweet oak and malted barley. Not sure about this but I do know this is very easy drinking whisky and excellent to share with friends who love good whisky
|
£50.00 |
Bruichladdich X4 - New Spirit
This cannot be called whisky until it has spent 3 years in cask, this hasn't hence it is new spirit. The first general release of the perilous quadrupel distilled whisky which according to legend will kill you after 3 spoonfuls. Very interesting as you don't get new make on the market very often but a little disappointing because it has been cut back to 50% a.b.v rather than releasing it at full strength, although far more responsible as the full strength stuff would probably destroy major organs. Interesting to try and will be a very useful reference point to keep and compare to the older stuff when it matures to see how it has changed. One for the curious and the collector alike.
|
£38.00 |
Bruichladdich 2001
A heavier peating (10ppm) then the normal laddie making it slightly bigger and less sea breeze but even though it is young this is a little smasher and a true reflection on how good Bruichladdich can be without the dreaded ACE.
|
£40.00 |
Bunnahabhain 1991 - Gordon & MacPhail
Roasted malt on the nose, a hint of tobacco and leather with an underlying
fruitiness. Sweet sherry and a fruit hint turning spicy & earthy.
A soft and delicate malt from Islay.
|
£40.00 |
Bunnahabhain 18yr
Honey nuts and a hint of the sea. A huge sherry hit followed by oak and vanilla hints and a fine richness that last a long time before bringing spice and drying slightly to leave you wanting more.
|
£61.00 |
Bunnahabhain Toitech
A peated bunny and a worthy experiement. A gentle nose of stillroom spirits with a hint of the smoke possibly even having a slight cognac ester about it. The mouth feel is bigger than the 46% suggests with peat up front but sweetening out with sherry hints and good length. Bunnahabhain is a great malt, this keeps the rest good company.
|
£50.00 |
Clynelish 1993 - Gordon & MacPhail
Malty sweetness with the a hint of peat. Sweet oily flavour with smoke and spice, finishing in a rich mouthfeel and a little smoke.
|
£39.95 |
Compas Box - Oak Cross
A vatted malt (sorry Blended Malt) from 3 Spyside distilleries married together in an American oak barrel with French heads. Light and fruity with gentle vanilla and a hint of spice. Ideal for someone starting on the malt journey or if you want something for the summer sun.
|
£31.00 |
Campbeltown CV set - 3 x 20cl bottles, one each of Springbank CV, Hazelburn CV and Longrow CV
An excellent little opportunity to try all three of the different malts produced by Springbank. The Hazelburn is triple distiller with unpeated malt, a floral number. The Springbank is 2.5 times distilled and lightly peated and an easy drinker with the brine edge. Longrow is heavier peated and twice distillered and easy to drink.
|
£35.00 |
Duthies Campbeltown Region - Blended Malt
A blend of malts from the Springbank distillery released by Cadenheads. Usual brine, touch of peat hints and some nice spice. A pleasant introduction to the area.
|
£25.50 |
Edradour 10yr
Rich sweet sherry, dark chocolate, figs, marzipan and vanilla with
a hint of parma violets. A classic sherried Highlander.
|
£32.25 |
Edradour 1999 Unchillfiltered - Signatory
Like the 10yo but delivers bigger hits across the flavour range - a big brother of the classic sherried Highlander.
|
£38.00 |
Glendronach 12yo
I have not yet tried this one sop have cribbed the official tasting notes. Rich creamy sherried oak with raisins and soft fruit sweetness.
|
£29.00 |
Glengoyne 10yo
A light fruity little number with malty notes, hints of grass, apples and liquorice.
|
£29.50 |
Glenlivet Nadurra Triumph 1991
Loads of barley, fruit, floral, hints of sherry, unchillfiltered and 48% but gentle long and flavoursome with it.
|
£50.00 |
Glenmorangie Astar
The full sized (70cl) bottle and cask strength replacement for the Artisan cask. Tropical fruits by the bucket load. Big flavours due to it being cask strength. This lasts for ages after the swallow and delivers fresh fruits to the end. This is a brilliant example of what Morangie can be (should be?) and a personal favourite.
|
£60.00 |
Glenturret 1997 - Gordon & MacPhail
Malty with fresh fruit aromas and a slight tobacco element. Sweet
spices and dried grass and then the fruity floral notes combine.
A fruity caress from the highlands.
|
£26.25 |
Hazelburn 8yo
Light delicate nose, vanila, oak and floral notes. An elegant floral and sherbet palate finishing with a slight fizz of pepper. A delicate triple distilled one from Springbank.
|
£32.00 |
Hazelburn 12yo
A triple distilled one from Springbank again but completely different from the 8yo. This is a sherry monster with massive hits of flavour and richness lingering around for days. Beautiful.
|
£44.50 |
Isle of Jura Superstition
Superstition is a heavier peated version of Jura, young without doubt but good hit of smoke and honey. A good solid malt .
|
£32.95 |
Kilchoman 2010 Spring Release
3 years old with the final 3 months in a very active Oloroso cask giving it a good hint of sherry. This has mellowed since the new make (as you would expect) but is still a powerful little peaty number and showing signs of aging well. A great release from the newest Ileach.
|
£45.00 |
Kilkerran Work in Progress
First release from Glengyle and what a little smasher even as a 5 yo. Floral on the nose with hints of brine, vanilla, oak. The flower flavours come through on the palate with a fizzy peppery finish, excellent.
|
£30.00 |
Laphroaig Quarter Cask
Softer than the 10, the peat, smoke and iodine are still there but
softer and easier on the palate, but this isn't one for the faint
hearted - it has the south Islay power.
|
£30.50 |
Loch Fyne Whisky Liqueur
Full strength (40%) liqueur. Bitter chocolate and deep orange flavour leap out at you. Knocks all the others into a cocked hat. Richard Joynson has created a dream of a drink to sip or mix with.
|
£32.50 |
Longmorn 30yr - Gordon & Macphail
Rich sherry wood with sweet treacle flavours and rich dried fruit ending
with a very gentle hint of smokiness but with more oak present as it builds up over a dram. Speyside depth and complexity, one to savour.
|
£75.00 |
Longmorn 12yr - Gordon & Macphail
Lighter than the 30 as you would expect but the sherry is still thier with the fruit but a more nutty character is present with delicate sweetness.
|
£30.25 |
Longmorn 16yo
A releauch by the distillery in a flash box and sexy bottle with something in it that actually warrants the packaging. Sweet sherry, hints of vanilla and oak and a lasting warmth. Cannot think of why you would not buy it and enjoy it.
|
£54.00 |
Longrow 10yr
The dried fruit and gentle smokiness on the nose. An initial rush
of both sweetness and spice then a hint of brine before the peat
smoke arrives to overwhelm the senses - A bonfire of flavours. Campbeltown
at its finest.
|
£41.00 |
Longrow Gaja Barolo Cask 55.8%
Big hit of ripe red fruit on the nose and the smoke we love. Big powerful dram on the palate with the red fruit showing through again mellowing the brine but not hiding it and then the complex smoky finish. Fun and fruity Longrow.
|
£41.50 |
Longrow CV
3 different ages of Longrow make this up (7yo, 10yo & 14yo). It is a lovely peaty dram, hints of brine and slightly earthy: far too easy to drink.
|
£30.00 |
Longrow 10 yo - 100 proof
Floral nose (where is the peat) with the alcohol fizz. On the palate this is more like longrow but slightly more refined than the standard 10yo at this strength some how. Smoke and sweet vanilla with a long finish.
|
£41.00 |
MacPhails 25 - Gordon & MacPhail
A top Speyside distilleries spirit put in G&M casks, aged in G&M warehouses and then bottled by G&M. Sherry, spice, vanilla and fruit cake on the nose. great balance of sherry, oak and fruit on the palate with a long complex finish with a faint hint of smoke(?). This is a fantastic example that allow you to see what 25 year old spirit is like from this distillery without having to find loads more money.
|
£57.00 |
MacPhails 30 - Gordon & MacPhail
A top Speyside distilleries spirit put in G&M casks, aged in G&M warehouses and then bottled by G&M this time for 30 years. This has rich oak panelled office with a hint of smoke. On the palate rich sherry, oak, hints of smoke and spice. The finish last for ages and lingers until you have to have another. A perfect example of a fantastic speysider at its best. Character, richness and depth.
|
£74.00 |
Mortlach 15 - Gordon & MacPhail
Sherry heaven with spices and toffee galore and treacle and far too easy to drink.
|
£35.50 |
Port Charlotte PC6 from Bruichladdich - 61.6%
Tremendous young Islay whisky, lots of malted barley followed by the peaty tang not normally associated with Bruichladdich and a big hit of alcohol. Not one for the faint hearted but a beauty and an example of very good young (6yrs old) whisky - Jim got this one just right. Limited to 18,000 bottles (so not that limited) but if you collect; buy one to drink too, worthy on both counts. Just won best whisky under 12yo in Whisky Bible.
|
£85.00 |
Port Charlotte PC7 from Bruichladdich - 61%
Here comes number 3 in the PC release - PC7. It is as good as last time. Another year and only lost 0.6% of the alcohol, must have been cool on Islay last year. I would reproduce the notes from Mr James McKewan but my website provider will charge extra storage suffice to say Jim sees all the hallmarks of an Islay giant and the sea breeze as we'd expect etc. I've tried it and loved it again. It is still a young and slightly raw whisky but showing all the pedigree for a great peaty Islay whisky, again not for the faint hearted but one to enjoy and if you collect you need this one as well.
|
£62.00 |
Port Charlotte PC8 from Bruichladdich - 60.5%
Big, brash, peaty but with some subtleties starting to come through now it is getting older. This has been great since the start and keeps getting better.
|
£66.00 |
Rosebank 1991 - Gordon & MacPhail
Citrus, floral and heather on the nose. Light hints of sweetness and citrus follwed by cut grass finishing dry and floral. This is a great distillery sadly lost now but the legacy is fantastic whisky and G&M provide great examples such as this.
|
£44.00 |
Smokehead
Rich seaweedy whisky & loads of peat, with toffee, smoke, peat, iodine, sea salt and sherry fighting for recognition. My mum loves it and she is a real peathead so it must be ok.
|
£30.50 |
Speymalt from Macallan 1999 - Gordon & MacPhail
G&M Bottling of Macallan. Sherry, spice, fruit cake and drinkable.

|
£38.00 |
Springbank Madeira Cask 11yo

Spice, butter, rich oak and vanilla. Young but showing quality and notlikely to be around for long.
|
£38.00 |
Springbank Edinburgh Festival Blend 2007
A blend including 40% malt from Springbank (mostly springbank but with a hint of Longrow)was always going to be good and this did not disappoint, rich yet delicate, no harsh elements that blends can bring, sherry coming through and hints of spice and oak and a little smoke, great stuff.
|
£24.00 |
Teaninich 1993 - Gordon & MacPhail

A complex and tasty dram from the highlands.
