Scotch Single Malt A-Z

This whisky come Tobermory Distillery on the Ilse of Mull. The nose offers notes of rich fruit, zesty citrus and warming vanilla and spice. The palate develops into notes of sweet orange and citrus, with creamy caramel and vanilla witch cinnamon and clove in the background. The finish is long and lingers with vanilla and spice notes.

Matured at the Tomatin distillery for 14 years, this new expression from the distillery was aged in old Tawny Port casks, giving the whisky a background of red berries and toffee, joining the classic fruity, nutty flavours found in Tomatin's whisky. While richer and more full bodied, it still retains its gentle soft nature.

We are delighted to offer the arrival of whisky from the Torabhaig distillery, situated on the beautiful Isle of Skye in Scotland. A bracing note of harbour-side sea spray and brine leads the aroma, moving to sweet and citric tones of lemoncello, with a raging beachside bonfire smokyness throughout. To taste, it is nutty and sweet with a toasted character, offering coconut and freshly made muesli. The peat flavour remains with thick and plentiful smoke that lingers on.

Matured exclusively in first-fill bourbon casks, this expression from Tullibardine has notes of fresh hay, creamy chocolate, mixed peel, vanilla and soft sweet fudge. There are hints of fruit and subtle notes of spice - a very drinkable dram.

Aurora is the second expression to come out of the Wolfburn distillery, founded in 2013 in the sea-side village of Thurso at the very northern edges of mainland Scotland. This new release is matured in a mixture of both American oak and ex-sherry casks, the latter bringing more nutty, orchard fruity flavours to the whisky. The malty, sea-side maritime flavour that comes from slow fermentation and oceanic maturing is there on the nose and finish. A brilliant new release from Wolfburn.

Langskip, a norse word for Longship, is the latest release from Scotland's far-north distillery, Wolfburn. This is the first high-strength whisky from the distillery, offering fruity and aromatic notes of dried apple, raisins and dates and rich fruit cake. The palate has maple syrup, dark chocolate and fruit and nut mix. A fading vanilla-sweet finish comes through in the finish. A welcome new addition to the popular Wolfburn range.

The Wolfburn distillery is one of the more remote distilleries in Scotland, situated a great distance from southern Spain, where these Manzanilla sherry casks were sourced from. The dry, nutty and salty flavour of this wood marries with Wolfburn's sea-side style, joining honey and pear flavours. To taste, a shifting tide of sweet barley gives way to a lingering, mellow dryness from the oak.

Morven is the new peated expression from the Wolfburn distillery, made from barley that has been traditionally infused with the smoke of burning peat. The smoke is soft to start, combined with aromas of fresh sea air and a fruity, floral tone that comes from Wolfburn's slow fermentation and distillation. The lightness on the nose gives way to a more full-bodied flavour on the palate, carrying a tang of smoke and spices, with a vanilla sweetness that becomes spiced and very gently peppery in the finish.

The Wolfburn distillery is one of Scotland's newest distilleries, founded in 2013 in Thurso, making it the most northerly distillery in Scotland. Wolfburn is a traditional coastal Highland style, made with unpeated malt and aged in quarter casks that formerly held peaty whisky. Softly fruity and sweet to start, with buttery, fruity (pears, ripe banana), nutty flavours that drift towards a very subtle and lingering peat smoke finish. This is a truly accomplished whisky for such a new distillery, and a taste of great things to come.

Situated near the very centre of Scotland not far from the waters of Loch Tay is the Aberfeldy distillery. Matured for at least 12 years in both ex-sherry and ex-american oak casks, it is smooth and sweet dram with tangy orange notes, hints of vanilla (ice cream or custard) and honey and spice throughout. A very approachable single malt and a gentle introduction to the Highland whisky style.

Arran Port Cask Finish provides a rich and complex expression bursting with flavours of dried fruits, hazelnuts and oranges. Carefully selected Port casks give a sweet finish to compliment Arran's traditional light and fruity style.

After initially maturing in traditional oak casks for approximately 8 years, The Arran Single Malt in this bottling was finished in a selection of Sauternes wine casks sourced from an artisan producer of this iconic Bordeaux sweet white wine. There are notes of honeysuckle, melon and marzipan on the nose, which continues to develop on the palate with rich honey and vanilla flavours.

A superb example of all that is good about Arran. A vanilla sweetness gives way to kiwi, banana and melon, with a hint of cocoa powder. A very mellow dram with a delicate nose but a weighty and oily palate, sweetness softened by gentle woody tones.

The Dalmore 18 year old has been matured in ex-American white oak casks for 14 years, before being finished in 30 year old Matusalem olorosso sherry casks for its final 4 years. Rich and spicy, releasing waves of vanilla, milk chocolate, marmalade and stewed fruits with a long toffeed finish.

Dalwhinnie is one of the 'classic malts' of Scotland, chosen as a fine example of the Highland Scotch whisky style. Dalwhinnie is soft whisky, with heather-honey sweetness and a delicate spice that is joined by a touch of vanilla and a subtle note of peat smoke in the background.

Situated just outside of Huntly in the highlands of Scotland, the GlenDronach distillery has since 1826 produced a style of whisky that is renowned for its rich, heavy character. Notes of dried fruit (raisins, sultanas) followed by a big dollop of toffee and sherry lead into hints of dark chocolate/cocoa. The GlenDronach 12 is one of the best value for money whiskies that we stock, punching far above its weight.

Named after the broad, beautiful bay the distillery sits above, this expression forms part of an entirely new lineup of this little-known Highland gem. A buttery vanilla and tropical fruit scented note leads the nose, with white chocolate and a touch of sea-salt. Salted caramel flavours join more fruityness on the palate, with pineapple and a tang of sweet-sour grapefruit.

This Highland Park release is part of the Viking Legend series. This whisky has been matured sherry seasoned European and American oak casks. The nose has notes of green apples, gentle spices, and campfire. The palate has notes of dark chocolate, vanilla, salty liquorice, and warm aromatic smoke.
