There isn't much that needs to be said about this. Mortlach meet sherry, sherry Mortlach. Two and a half decades later the marriage is still a perfect one. What's the secret? Listening and mutual respect or raw unbridled attraction? Probably both. There may be no right answer, but no one questions that these two belong together. The Mortlach distillery, known locally as the "Beast of Dufftown," is one of those great distilleries that has never been given proper attention by its owners. The distillery has quietly been a key component in the great Scotch b...

The wonderful Pulteney Distillery in the town of Wick is one of the north coast's most well loved. While it remains under the radar to the greater drinking public, the Scotch community has long sung its praises. The distillery is one of the few that still manages to sell the odd cask here and there, but until recently it was relatively unusual to see on the Independent Bottlers lists. We've recently picked up a few casks and very rarely do the malts from this seaside distiller ever let us down. The distillery itself, located on the eastern coast of the n...

This picturesque distillery has long been a critical component to the Chivas Regal profile. While the distillery is widely used in blends, it's rarely bottled as a single malt. It can be a bit of a tricky malt to work with, but when a cask is in its prime - it's sublime. The oldest licensed distillery in Scotland, Strathisla has been making whisky since 1786 - a year before the US Constitution was signed. While it was a famous malt in the early part of the 20th century, it's been all but absent the market for decades. The exception, as with so many top n...

The excellent distillery that's garnering so much hype these days was unheard of just a few years ago. While the distillery is focused mainly on the heavy sherry offerings, this exciting first fill ex-bourbon cask is a window into the unique character of this special distillery. Opened relatively late in 1967 just outside of the town of Aberlour, it's in very good company geographically. Directly to the north is the wonderful Aberlour distillery and to the west Dailuaine. Due south you'll find Benrinnes and a bit further GlenFarclas. Finding an expressio...

This year's biggest sherry bomb is likely to be this excellent Glenturret. Douglas Laing had, until very recently, acted as the local distributor for the Glenturret Single Malts, which until very recently was owned by the famous Edrington group, stewards of the Ester Elchies estate and its great distillery The Macallan. Glenturret always played third fiddle to their other two bluechip distilleries, the little Glenturret distillery maybe Scotland's oldest running distillery, founded in 1763. While it never shared the limelight with its younger siblings, i...

Tomatin is a fascinating distillery with a unique history and many incarnations, from starting as a bulk blender and supplier to eventually shifting to a steadfast focus on quality single malt production. From the early 1900s through the mid '70s, Tomatin grew continuously. They added stills multiple times as demand for their product increased exponentially. By 1975, they were the largest single malt production facility in Scotland. Sadly, due to market forces, they never operated at their full capacity. By the mid '80s, the massive bust in the market fo...

92 points Wine Enthusiast: "Sip or mix this single malt, aged in American and European ex-sherry barrels. Mellow honey and smooth, nutty flavors taper off into a long fade that shows vanilla, citrus, sweet spices and a hint of cocoa. (KN)" (12/2017) 90 points Whisky Advocate: "Two oaks are better than one in this single malt, which marries whiskies matured in sherry-seasoned casks of both American and European oak. The sherry imparts aromas of raisins, figs, hazelnuts, blanched almonds, candied orange peel, and leather. A backbone of vanilla sweetness ...
This exquisit example of the special Speysider is bottled under Massimo Righi's exceptionally beautiful "Whisky Is Nature." The majestic depiction of an African Bull Elephant adorns the label appropriately hinting at the deep and complex nature of the whisky inside. This single cask #2280 turned out 480 bottles at cask strength, but only 36 bottles made it to the US and is sold exclusively at K&L Wine Merchants.

The Glengoyne distillery straddles the official dividing line between the lowlands and the highlands, but the famous distillery's credentials have never been questioned. Founded in 1833 and not ceasing operation during the several industry crises and closures, the Glengoyne Distillery has long been associated with sherry matured single malt production. The distillery name, an anglicization of the term Glen Guin, means to the valley of the wild geese. The distillery received the Royal Warrant to supply the household of the Queen Mother in 1984 and the dis...

94 points Wine Enthusiast: "Silky and downright succulent, this Scotch is made with two types of oak casks—as the DoubleWood name suggests—but it’s really all about the influence of the ex-Sherry cask. Aromas suggest golden raisins and dried apricots. The silky palate starts out moderately smoky, but glides into a richer, honeyed, nutty profile that finishes with cocoa and clove accents. (KN)" (12/2015) Whisky Advocate: "This ever-popular expression of Balvenie is matured for roughly 12 years in ex-bourbon casks and finished for 9 months in Spanish oak...

The long and complicated history of BenRiach includes an optimistic vision, a long closure, a rebirth, a short closure, and finally, a modern renaissance - of which we are now in full swing. Built in 1897 by John Duff, BenRiach sits nextdoor to Duff's hugely successful Longmorn distillery. BenRiach boasts a huge floor malting facility and five on site, old school stone-walled and earthen-floored dunnage warehouses making it one of the most traditionally styled distilleries in all of Scotland. Sadly, shortly after it was built, the market fell out of Scot...

Tullibardine sits in Blackford not far north of the border between Highlands and Lowlands. Historically, it produced a nutty malt that was generally filled into tired casks and sold off for blending. Their lack of a strong wood management program meant that single casks were a crapshoot. If you managed to get a great one, you could have a phenomenal spirit. If the cask was past its prime, the whisky was nothing to write home about. In 1994, the distillery was shut down. It wasn’t until new ownership took over in 2003 that the distillery reopened and saw ...

Linkwood has been the blender's greatest secret for decades. A little bit of Linkwood used correctly takes a fine blended Scotch and amps it up to a very good or great blended Scotch. It's like salt to a chef for the whisky blender and it's this unique characteristic that makes it so rare as a single malt - it's too valuable for the blend. Fortunately for fans of great Single Malt, the independent bottling market has stepped in to fill this void. We've seen more and more casks come to market in the last 5-10 years, but most of those single casks don't co...

94 points Wine Enthusiast: "A port cask finish gives this Scotch a copper penny hue. The aroma suggests baked apple, while the palate has a chewy, concentrated vanilla-oak profile, leading to walnut, leather and espresso. The rounded finish sings with sherry and spice. Adding water coaxes out baked apple sweetness and dials back the oak. (KN)" (12/2017) 91 points Whisky Advocate: "This is the ultimate Port-wood expression from Balvenie and has been finished in 30-year-old port pipes. A more vibrant and textured Travel Retail variant is non-chill filter...

90-95 points Wine Enthusiast: "The bouquet is austere and leathery with curious aromas of beeswax, vegetable oil and oaky resin. Palate entry is focused on the resin; midpalate is splendidly multilayered and offers elements of black pepper, dried orange blossom, honeysuckle, dried fruit, sage, fennel and confections. Aftertaste is deep and unabashedly sweet and honeyed. *Superb, Highly Recommended*" (12/2009) Whisky Advocate: "Both bourbon and sherry casks were used for aging. Stewed fruits, butterscotch, and soft spices on the nose. Silky palate deliv...

According to the distillery, Glenmorangie's Director of Whisky Creation Dr. Bill was inspired to create this limited edition whisky while snowed in at home. Wanting to recapture the snug feeling of sitting fireside while the world is blanketed in snow, Dr. Bill finished the 13-year-old single malt in Marsala wine casks from Sicily. On the palate, "the experience begins with light flurries of fruit and honey, building to torrents of cocoa dust, flakes of red pepper and chunks of brazil nut toffee. It culminates in a feels-like-forever finish that swirls w...

Aberlour's ever popular sherry bomb is back. Batch 71 clocks in at 61.5% ABV and packs a wallop of sweet sherry spice and fruit cake. It's dark, rich, and intense, just like nearly every batch to come before it.

Tasting notes from Jim Murray's Whisky Bible: "a meandering elegance and surprising degree of weight, too, with the most charming and gentle smokiness drifting around in very old-fashioned Speyside style. A classic exhibition of oak and barley interplay: perfect balance and respect for the other. There is even a surprise fruit note of sharp passion fruit: where the hell did that come from…? Could nose this all day, if I had the time… NOSE TASTE right: so, does this complexity on the nose transfer across to the palate…? Oh, my word it certainly does! The ...

The Hart family have been licensed victuallers and publicans in Paisley on the outskirts of Glasgow since the 18th Century, but it was in 1964 that brothers Iain & Donald Hart incorporated the company as Wine & Spirit Wholesalers and Scotch Whisky Blenders. Alistair Hart, who still selects casks for this special line today, came on as Chief Blender in 1975. His charge at the time was to secure and select the finest casks of single malt that were not readily available to the market. Their commitment to excellence is second to none in the industry and they...
