Ardbeg Traigh Bhan 19 Year Old Batch 5 Islay Single Malt
This 5th batch of Ardbeg's Traigh Bhan (pronounced tri-van) is a small batch release that has been bottled in humidity and named after the beautiful beach known locally as the Singing Sands. Perfumed aromas of luscious tropical fruit flow on the breeze, while curious notes of herbal incense and smoke follow closely behind. The palate has a creamy mouthfeel that leads the way into a crashing symphony of herbal spicy flavours. Smoked maple cured bacon, charcoal and white pepper with a touch of cloves will wrap you up in a dream state.
Bruichladdich Octomore 14.3 5 Year Old Islay Barley
The Bruichladdich Octomore 14.3 has been produced with 100% Islay grown Concerto barley from the 2016 harvest. Then distilled in 2017 with 214.2PPM, aged for 5 years in First fill ex American whiskey casks. On the nose this will transport you to Bruichladdich Distillery courtyard, the aromas of hot, sweet mash are unmistakable. The palate brings delicate oak notes that is followed by smouldering peat, floral hints of gorse and honeysuckle. The finish has malted barley, caramel and vanilla balanced with Octomore's signature earthy peat smoke and a hint of salt spray.
