Product details
May brings a celebration of Islay single malts coinciding with the isle’s festival of music and malt – plus a curve ball or two…
Bunnahabhain Toiteach a Dhà: The first peated Bunnahabhain (their whiskies are usually unpeated) we’ve featured in Pour & Sip. Toiteach a Dhà (pronounced ‘Toch-ach ah-ghaa’) is Gaelic for "Smoky Two", being the follow up to one of their previous smoky releases named simply Toiteach. Matured in bourbon and sherry casks, this second version has a higher proportion of sherry casks.
Kilchoman Sanaig Cask Strength 2024 Edition: Kilchoman's 20th anniversary is this year! Peated to a hearty 50 PPM (phenol parts per million), yet distilled to preserve some lighter floral and citrus notes, this one of their richer offerings. A much anticipated limited edition cask strength version of Sanaig, their predominantly sherry matured style (either finished or fully matured in American oak oloroso sherry hogsheads from Bodegas José y Miguel Martín).
Bowmore 12 Year Old Sherry Oak: Not the classic Bowmore 12 Year Old here, but rather a brand new 12yo whisky from their brand new Sherry Oak Collection! This particular release is aged in oloroso sherry and bourbon casks, with an additional oloroso cask finish. Bowmore distillery was founded way back in 1779, making it one of the very oldest distilleries in Scotland and the oldest on Islay, with a peat level of 25-30 PPM.
SRV5 8 Year Old Blended Malt (Thompson Bros.): Really very affordable whisky lovingly put together by whisky geeks (off of the brilliant Dornoch Castle Hotel and the celebrated Dornoch distillery), for whisky geeks. 'Station Road Vat 5' is the 1k litre European oak ‘solera’ vat (never emptied to less than a third) where this non-chill filtered, natural colour blended malt (North Highland, Islay & Speyside single malts) slowly integrated over many months.
Godawan Series 02 - Fruit and Spice: An Indian whisky that takes its name from the endangered Great Indian Bustard (contributing to their preservation). It's matured in bourbon barrels and finished in cherry wood casks. In Scotland, only oak casks are allowed, but in other countries woods such as cherry offer opportunities for innovation. The north Indian climate plays a big role too, with temperatures often reaching 50°C!
