The beauty of the Thompson Brothers is that they're willing to take risks. This offering is indeed a risky proposition for a bottler, the very reason the big guys were willing to let it go. On paper it reads like a very expensive blended scotch. But why add an age statement, when a 12-year-old Johnnie Walker is a fraction of the price? The age statement tells the entire story here and our friends at Dornoch care little for artificial labels and quality statements, all they care about is getting damn good whisky into your glass for an incredible price.

Compass Box & K&L have always had a special relationship. Since the inception of this special brand 25 years ago, we've seen eye to eye on every aspect of this business. It wasn't until 2011 that we were able to connect with legendary whisky maker John Glasser about the potential to do an exclusive for K&L. We had access to anything back then, but one trophy alluded K&L and exclusive Compass Box. That was until 2015 when John Glaser invited our spirits buying team to select an exclusive blend from their stocks, a now legendary blend of old peated malt an...

Here's a fabulous follow-up to the exceptionally good 25-year-old unpeated Ardmore that we featured in last year's Whisky Season. This much for typical Ardmore was peated to the usual medium level of around 14 ppm. Of course, this is using highland peat sourced from terrestrial vegetation rather than the Islay peat which is composed of ocean vegetation. Filled into a high-quality 2nd fill ex-bourbon barrel in July of 2009, it was bottled at cask strength of 57% abv without the use of coloring or chillfiltration. The resulting whisky is extremely expressi...

Whisky Advocate: "A release chosen by Douglas Maclean (and named after his song “Caledonia”). Full sherry impact, but contained—not excessive or sappy. Rich, with nutty toffee, pot still rum, a variety of raisins (regular and golden), date, honeyed fruit, polished leather, and a hint of tobacco. Good resinous grip on the finish to balance the sweetness. The flavors are nicely integrated. (JH, Summer-2010)" K&L Notes: This prized bottle from Scotland's wee Edradour distillery is named after musician Dougie MacLean's Caledonia guitar. MacLean was visiting...

This lovely lowland distillery is one of the closest historical distilleries to the city of Glasgow and you might get lucky and see a head of Highland cattle that occasionally graze on the well-manicured lawns if you make the short trek out to Clydebank. Like most Lowland distillers Auchentoshan does a proper triple distillation leaving a finer spirit with fewer impurities and a soft sweet malty character. The distillery was founded in 1823 and operated continuously until being completely rebuilt in the late 1960s. In 1984, the famed whisky maker Stanley...

Our friends at Douglas Laing in Glasgow, with whom we do the Old Particular bottlings, have put together a series of regional malt blends that wonderfully showcase the stylistic flavor profiles of Scotlands main whisky producing sectors. Not only are the whiskies accurate reflections of a dying era in Scotch whisky production, they're some of the tastiest and most enjoyable whiskies we've discovered in ages. The Epicurean is the "Lowland" expression that absolutely brims with fresh fruit, sweet barley, and hard candy. It's a barley-rich malt that is like...

The Glendronach “Ode to the Dark” is the most indulgent release yet in the Master's Anthology collection, matured exclusively in select Pedro Ximenez casks and bottled at a generous 50.8 percent ABV.

Made exclusively for Friends of Laphroaig, and bottled at a fixed strength of 52.3%, the Càirdeas 2023 is aged in White Port and Madeira casks, but the recipe is not so simple. The base whisky, nearly 75% of the batch, was aged in 2nd fill Madeira-seasoned hogheads, likely the same used in the 2016 Madeira focused Cairdeas. The rest was aged in mostly first fill white Port casks with a few red Port casks thrown in for good measure. It is a complex blend of competing flavors that offers an unusual example of this special Islay malt. Tasting notes from the...

Edradour Distillery, once known as the smallest in Scotland, remains a favorite among collectors.

The structure is thick and physical, the palate sweet and quite fat, with light hints of raspberry, fruit salad. A jag of acidity freshens the delivery on the finish.

This is a fully Bourbon-cask matured single malt from one of the three remaining distilleries in Campbeltown. Originally founded in 1872, the distillery shuttered in 1925 and was recalled to life in 2004 by descendants of the original founders. Today, their whiskies show a beautiful harmony in the glass — and this lives up to that history. Aged for eight years exclusively in used Bourbon barrels, this was just released in early 2025 and bottled at 55.6% ABV.
