Bruichladdich Islay Barley 2014 Single Malt Whisky
Bruichladdich Islay Barley 2014 is a single malt Scotch whisky celebrating local provenance. Crafted entirely on Islay, the whisky uses barley grown on eight farms within an 11-mile radius of the distillery. Matured in a combination of first-fill bourbon casks, sherry butts, and second-fill wine casks, it delivers a cereal-led character with notes of apricot, peach, malty biscuit, and a touch of fresh grass. A subtle maritime note lingers, reflecting the whisky's entirely Islay-originating journey, from barley to glass.
Wolfburn 12 Year Old Single Malt Whisky
Wolfburn 12 Year Old is a refined and beautifully balanced Highland single malt from Scotland's northernmost mainland distillery, located in Thurso on the far north coast of Caithness. Matured for twelve years in a combination of ex-bourbon barrels and Oloroso sherry hogsheads, bottled at 46% ABV without chill filtration and at natural colour, it delivers a harmonious profile of sweetness, fruit, and oak that showcases the distillery's distinctive northern character.

Bottled at 46% ABV without chill filtration and at natural colour. Tasting Notes The nose is inviting with notes of honey, vanilla, and soft orchard fruits, enriched by gentle sherry sweetness and a touch of spice.
