Berry Bros & Rudd 2011 Balmenach Cask No. 121 12 Year Old 54.4%

Balmenach Distillery can be found at Cromdale, one of the crossing points on the upper stretches of the River Spey. Like many malt whiskies, very little is bottled as single malt, especially older examples. At first sniff, zesty and grassy notes rise out the glass followed by vibrant green fruits and orange. The palate is wonderfully citrusy, with tangy Granny Smith apples and a pleasing dollop of spirit sulphur. The finish brings grilled lime, barley sweets and a touch of hay. This is a thoroughly pleasing, distillate driven dram.

Glenmorangie A Tale Of The Forest Limited Edition Single Malt

Captivated by the notion of a whisky steeped in the scents, sights and sounds of the forest this has been made by an ancient method of kilning barley with botanicals - for this juniper berries, birch bark and heather blossom were used. The result is a single malt whisky that is as lush as the forest itself. Aromas of pine, juniper and coriander are laced with wisps of smoke. Notes of deep green eucalyptus, lit by rays of bitter orange, drift to a slow, gentle oak finish.
