The Glenlivet 12 Years Double Oak – 70 cl

The Glenlivet 12 Year Old Double Oak is a classic Speyside single malt Scotch whisky that serves as the flagship benchmark expression for The Glenlivet Distillery. Celebrated for its smooth, bright, and highly approachable flavor profile, this expression is chill-filtered, bottled at 40% ABV, and is universally recognized as an excellent introductory malt for beginners or an easy everyday dram.

• Traditional Oak / European Oak Casks: Imparts structural complexity, bringing out the distillery's signature summer fruits, subtle baking spices, and a elegant malty backbone.
• American Oak Casks: Infuses the spirit with rich notes of vanilla, toffee, and a distinct, velvety smoothness.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Crisp and highly aromatic. Dominated by tropical pineapple, ripe orchard fruits (pears and green apples), creamy vanilla, honey, and a gentle hint of fresh wood shavings.
• Palate: Light-to-medium mouthfeel. It balances citrus zest, sugary malt, and warm baking spices (like white pepper and ginger) alongside a noticeable, clean oak presence.
• Finish: Short-to-medium and crisp, ending on lingering notes of vanilla malt, apple peel, and a dry, clean oakiness.

One of the world's most popular blends, and the best-selling Scotch whisky in Scotland. Famous Grouse is a very nicely balanced, malty blend which was first made in 1896, and would go on to be known as The Famous Grouse, with the name registered in 1905. Around eighty years later, the company was awarded a Royal Warrant. The blend represents great value for money, and it also works beautiful in whisky-based cocktails. Delicious.

Tasting Notes

Nose: Candied fruits, buttery shortbread, citrus peel

Palate: Dried fruit, soft spices (cinnamon/ginger), hint of oak

Finish: Smooth, well balanced

Johnnie Walker XR was inspired by the hand-written blending notes of Sir Alexander Walker, the grandson of the legendary Johnnie Walker.

A luxurious blend from the exclusive reserve of aged casks, including that of the now quiet distillery of Brora. Aged for an extended period of 21 years this exceptional legacy blend is both warm and spicy to the palate with layers of complexity to suit the discerning whisky drinker.

Nose: Spiced apple, smoky oak and a little toasted brioche.

Palate: Herbal as it opens. This gives way to orange and lemon peels by the bucket-load, followed by another kick of smoky malt.

Finish: Wafts of Sherry-soaked raisins last and last.

The Macallan treated this 18 Year Old to not just one, but two cask content-types for its maturation, released as part of the Double Cask series! Oloroso sherry was used to season a combination of both American and European oak casks, with the former imparting vanilla nuances while the latter brings that hallmark Macallan spice. Another fantastic sherried single malt from the Speyside distillery!

Tasting Notes

Nose: Dried fruit, ginger and toffee. Rich orange with hints of clove and nutmeg.

Palate: Rich raisin and sultana with notes of caramel, vanilla and ginger, balanced by wood spice and zesty citrus.

Finish: Warm oak spice with ginger, turning to sweet orange.
