The Malt Advocate's Rum of The Year in 2006/07 & Best In Category 'Over 15 Years' section at the 2007
Cane Spirits Competition. From the Ministry of Rum, "Brown rum distilled from molasses using a column
still. A blend of 8 to 12 year old rums then solera aged for another year in used whisky and bourbon barrels.
Bottled at 40% alcohol by volume. The initial nose of honey, nuts and coconut leads to a balanced body of
honey, caramel pecans and smoky wood with a smooth finish of coconut, and slightly smoked ripe fruit".

A thick, heavy rum distilled and matured in Guyana but bottled in England. Tasting of mixed peel, raisins, toffee apple dare I say shellac? Warm and rich on the palate with spicy plum pudding, prune and treacle flavours.

A good honest malt that probably deserves more attention. Plenty of creamy barley, honey with a hint of smoke. The distillery has been owned and allowed to prosper by Bacardi since 1998.
This 12yo is full and malty, with just a hint of peat that adds to the intrigue to oily and honeyed texture. As they say, quite the undiscovered malt!

It's not often that we see a new release from one of my favourite distilleries. And this Double Cask 16yo lives up to my expectations. The combination of Bourbon & Sherry maturation, leaves this malt luscioulsy smoothe and sweet. But there's a nice touch of spiciness that combines with the gentle oak, rich malt and balanced alcohol that stops this malt from being cloyingly sweet. Murray rates it at 93.5pts.

Aberlour A'Bunadh Batch 27

$120.00 |

Batch 27 lives up to A'bunadh's famed cask strength and full on sherry style. Dark in colour, the nose reveals a really fine Oloroso sherry character, but there's still plenty of raisined fruit and a hint of smoke. And to taste: this one is big, sweet and syrupy, plenty of chocolate and organge flavours and of course the mandatory fruitcake notes as well. But do I get the faintest hint of peat? You betcha!!

Gold Gold Gold...MWSoA Aawards 2010
I've managed to secure only a small handful of this award winning malt, as we are now up to Batch 30! This is a bit of a depature from the last few Batch's, as it is dry, spicily dry. Plenty of sweet chocolates notes on the nose, but it's spicily dry on the palate. As one blogger has written, "This isn't super refined but I mean that in a good way. Its rich and complex but brash and ballsy with it. Do I like it? Hell yeah!"
Pic is indicative only.

An Cnoc is a brand named malt that comes from Inverhouse's Knockdhu Speyside distillery. Very clean, intense, peppery and best of all it's quite quite a bit of peat bite.

Since Glenmorangie and then Moet Hennessy got behind this distillery, there has been no looking back as this so called "entry level" malt is of a standard that few malts have ever come close to. Clean, precise, intense, complex, mouthfilling and of course highly peaty. Awesome in all departments. Just ask Jim Murray, Franz Scheurer and a raft of other notable whisky scribes.

What was supposed to be a regular issue from Ardbeg may now turn out to be a limited offering as stocks at the distillery dry up. This is a creamily smooth 16yo bourbon mature Ardbeg. Not a beast at all in fact!

The toned down Ardbeg 10yo? 8ppm of peat, an alcohol strength of 40%, contained in a clear glass bottle and highly contentious too. Not surprisingly my notes still refer to peat!!

If you've missed the advertising on this new Ardbeg, then I suggest you hunt it out. Great stuff. So, another new Ardbeg, once again very limited but I do hear that it is to replace the Beist! So I wonder what's next?
