Top 9 around the world spirits

 

 

Pappy Van Winkles 15 Year Old Family Reserve Kentucky Straight Bourbon - 75cl 53 - This Kentucky straight bourbon is distilled at Buffalo Trace to an exclusive wheated recipe created by the Old Rip Van Winkle Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky. Matured for 15 years and bottled at barrel proof strength, this expression is only released once per year – as with all the Pappy Van Winkle bourbons – making it a very highly sought-after bottle. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Macallan 12 year old Sherry Oak - The Macallan Sherry Oak 12 Years Old forms part of the distillery’s Sherry Oak range, which features a series of single malt whiskies matured exclusively in hand-picked sherry seasoned oak casks from Jerez for richness and complexity. A matured character, the 12 Years Old delivers rich wood spice and dried fruits and a natural rich gold colour. An all-time favourite.

 

 

 

 

Stalla Dhu Cask Strength Truthbetold 22 - Some famous distilleries are fiercely protective of their whiskies and adapted a process called tea-spooning; as in adding a teaspoon of another malt. This is so ‘Independent Bottlers’ cannot call it a Single Malt or use the Distillery name. This exceptional cask in its previous incarnations was known as ‘Wardhead’ and clues to its identity lie within the label. A magnificent, limited edition spirit aged for 22 years and released at the cask strength of 54.4%, bringing indulging notes of soft and sophisticated spice, toffee and a lovely lingering long finish.

 

 

 

 

 

Yellow Spot 12 Year Old Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey - A second entry into the 'Spot' range, aged for 12 years and made up in part from spirit matured in Malaga casks for a sweet and moreish dram. On the palate, we can find the grain influence, starting sweet and slowly turning spicy and gently sour. With that comes buttered toast, layered with grape jam, nutmeg, clove, lemon zest and fruit, with spicy liquorice notes.

 

 

 

 

 

Blantons Original Single Barrel Bourbon Whiskey - Originally introduced in 1984, Blanton’s Original is among the world’s finest single barrel Kentucky bourbons. Filtered and bottled by hand at Buffalo Traces Distillery, the ultra-premium bottling is a worthwhile addition to even the most well-stocked drinks cabinet. Mesmerizing palate with flavours of cooked spiced apple, along with oak spice, nutmeg and caramelised nuts. Tart berries and milk chocolate linger on the finish.

 

 

 

 

 

Amrut Greedy Angels 10 Year Old Peated Rum Cask - A rich, smoky Indian single malt whisky from Amrut's Greedy Angels series, matured for 10 years and finished in an ex-rum cask, before being bottled in October 2019. Woody aromas mingle with smoky peat, sweet spice and marmalade on the nose, developing into sour cherry, cocoa and sweet vanilla. The palate offers notes of butterscotch, candied citrus fruit and tropical fruits, followed by camphor, soft smoke and rum-soaked raisins.

 

 

 

 

Springbank 10 Year Old Whisky - A fabulous 10 year old Springbank, matured in bourbon casks as well as sherry casks, adding a wonderful depth of flavour. Slightly peated, it marries a complex mixture of maritime notes as well as a fresh and fruity balance. The definition of a Campbeltown classic. A full, sweet, creamy palate with hints of smoke, marzipan, and whiffs of cigar notes followed by a smoky finish, trailing off on sweet cider and toasty barley.

 

 

 

 

 

Hakushu Distillers Reserve Single Malt Japanese Whisky - From the Hakushu distillery in the foothills of Mount Kaikomagatake comes their Distiller's Reserve single malt whisky, a no-age-statement expression, that captures the smoky, herbaceous characteristics of their whiskies. Both lightly-peated and heavily-peated malts were used for this complex and deeply enjoyable whisky. One of two Spring 2014 release from Suntory.

 

 

 

 

Mackmyra Fjallmark Swedish Whisky - From Mackmyra's wonderful Moments series comes the Fjällmark single malt Swedish whisky. This expression was finished in casks that held previously cloudberry wine, as well as casks that held Pedro Ximénez sherry and Oloroso sherry. The name Fjällmark translates to 'Mountain Land'. Warming oak arrives on the palate before notes of vanilla and salted fudge emerge. Lingering finish with dried fruit and ginger notes.
