ABERLOUR 1995 15 YEAR OLD WAREHOUSE NUMBER 1 SINGLE CASK #2427 SPEYSIDE SINGLE MALT Named after the small Speyside town in which it resides, Aberlour distillery has cultivated a dedicated following, particularly in France where it is frequently the top selling single malt. The spirit it produces ages extremely well in Sherry casks and has a distinctive note of blackcurrant.Although it boasts an extensive core range, the expression it is perhaps best known for is the consistently excellent small batch A’Bunadh.Distilled: 19/02/1995Matured in 1st fill sherry cask #2427Bottle Number: 3653.9% ABV / 70cl

DALMORE 12 YEAR OLD HIGHLAND SINGLE MALT Dalmore have invested a lot to position themselves as a luxury brand, with their high-end expressions always resplendent in crystal decanters and lavish packaging. And you won’t ever hear them boasting about different cask finishes. Oh no, no, no; they prefer to “finesse” their spirit in a variety of exotic sounding wood. While this type of posturing isn’t exactly unique in the whisky industry, it does create a nagging doubt that the whole thing might just be a case of style over substance.Thankfully, Dalmore’s spirit (more often than not) lives up to the hype. They have a complicated distillation process that utilises mismatched stills to produce distillates with different characteristics. These are then vatted together, before being filled into the distillery’s preferred Sherry casks.40% ABV / 70cl

MORTLACH 16 YEAR OLD FLORA & FAUNA SPEYSIDE SINGLE MALT Dubbed “the Beast of Dufftown” by whisky writer, Dave Broom, Mortlach uses a complicated distillation process that minimises copper contact and produces a sulphurous “meaty” spirit that is perfect for blending (not unlike Benrinnes and Dailuaine).Until relatively recently, the only way to experience it in single malt form would have been the 16-Year-Old Flora & Fauna, or the occasional independent bottling. This was because most of its output was used for Diageo’s Johnnie Walker blend. However, that all changed in 2014 when Mortlach introduced its own core range of single malt expressions.43% ABV / 70cl

TEANINICH 10 YEAR OLD FLORA & FAUNA 1ST EDITION HIGHLAND SINGLE MALT For a distillery capable of churning out over ten million litres of spirit in a single year, you might expect the highland distillery of Teaninich to be more of a household name than it actually is. The reason for its borderline anonymity is simply because most of the distillery’s output is earmarked for (parent company) Diageo’s various blends. Official single malt releases are limited to a 12 Year Old that forms part of the Flora & Fauna range, and the occasional limited edition. Even independent bottlings are thin on the ground, so they’re worth snapping up wherever you find them. 43% ABV / 70cl

MACALLAN DIAMOND JUBILEE SPEYSIDE SINGLE MALT There are few distilleries in the world quite so revered as Macallan. Nestled in the heart of the Speyside region, the rich spirit that runs from their “curiously small stills”, and their penchant for Spanish Sherry casks have proven to be a match made in Heaven, delighting the tastebuds of whisky connoisseurs around the globe.With demand far outstripping supply, they embarked upon one of the most ambitious distillery upgrades of all time, investing £140 million in an ultra-modern still house and visitor centre that seamlessly blends with the surrounding landscape, and is home to a whopping 36 stills capable of churning out around 15 million litres of spirit every year. Even so, getting your hands on a bottle can still be tricky, with new releases selling out as soon as they hit the shelves, and older examples regularly setting records at auction.Released in 2012 to mark the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II.One of only 2012 bottles released.52% ABV / 70cl

GLEN MORAY 1991 MOUNTAIN OAK DISTILLERY MANAGER'S CHOICE SPEYSIDE SINGLE MALT Famous for their unique stills, each as tall as an adult giraffe, and their passion for innovation, Glenmorangie remains one of the best-selling single malts in the world. They were one of the first distilleries to experiment with cask finishing; the process of transferring spirit from one cask type to another in order to impart additional characteristics and flavours.To further this agenda of innovation, in September of 2021 Glenmorangie began production at their new “Lighthouse” facility, a futuristic R&D department protruding from the heart of their traditional distillery complex like a monolith from 2001: A Space Odyssey. Off limits to the public, it is home to a “sensory lab” as well as two of Glenmorangie’s signature stills, each of which plays host to several classified modifications. Only time will tell what exciting innovations will filter down to the rest of the industry.Distilled: 15/03/1991Bottled: 03/12/2003Bottle Number: 570 / 80060.5% ABV / 70cl

GLENGOYNE 17 YEAR OLD AUCHENCRAIG RESERVE HIGHLAND SINGLE MALT Founded in 1833, Glengoyne distillery, just to the north of Glasgow, straddles the Highland/Lowland border. The light, fruity and honied spirit is predominantly filled into Sherry Casks that are transported from its Highland Still House, across the road to its warehouses in the Lowlands.Glengoyne wasn't seriously marketed as a single malt until the 1990s, and has since achieved huge popularity, especially in Europe.

GLEN ELGIN 16 YEAR OLD SPEYSIDE SINGLE MALT Prized by blenders, the Speyside distillery of Glen Elgin produces a robust, fruity spirit that is probably best known as a key component of the highly regarded White Horse blend. Built at the end of the 19th century, the distillery got off to a rocky start, coinciding with a slump in the market brought about by the infamous ‘Pattison crash’.It wasn’t until 1906 that things got back on track, but since then it’s all been smooth sailing.With most of the output earmarked for blending, Glen Elgin isn’t exactly a household name in the world of single malts, with official releases few and far between. Thankfully, there are plenty of great independent releases that allow enthusiasts the chance to discover this excellent distillery in its purest form.58.5% ABV / 70cl

ARDBEG ROLLERCOASTER ISLAY SINGLE MALT Located on the island’s rugged south coast, Ardbeg distillery represents the peatier end of the Islay spectrum.

CLYNELISH 12 YEAR OLD AINSLIE & HEILBRON 57% ABV 1980S 75CL HIGHLAND SINGLE MALT Built in the late 1960s, as a replacement for the distillery we now refer to as Brora, Clynelish has produced whisky for the Johnnie Walker range of blends ever since. Capable of producing nearly 5 million litres of spirit annually, it is one of Scotland’s larger malt distilleries. But despite this, it isn’t exactly a household name, with a relatively small percentage of its output appearing in single malt form.Its core range begins and ends with a 14-Year-Old, occasionally supplemented with a few limited releases and a sporadically bottled double matured Distillers Edition. Thankfully, fans of the Highland distillery’s signature waxy style can experience a broader selection in the form of independent releases.57% ABV / 75cl

CAOL ILA 15 YEAR OLD FLORA & FAUNA ISLAY SINGLE MALT Caol Ila might not be the prettiest distillery on Islay, but the spectacular view it enjoys, across the water to the neighbouring island of Jura, more than makes up for it. The distillery itself is an absolute monster, producing more litres of spirit per year than Lagavulin, Ardbeg, and Laphroaig combined! A good chunk of its staggering output winds up in Johnnie Walker, but there’s still plenty left to be bottled as single malt, in both peated and un-peated guises. 43% ABV / 70cl

GLENDRONACH 15 YEAR OLD MOSCATEL FINISH HIGHLAND SINGLE MALT Thanks to its rich, weighty spirit and penchant for sherry cask maturation, GlenDronach is often viewed as an excellent (and affordable) alternative to Macallan, despite being just on the wrong side of the Speyside / Highland border.Once providing the heart of the Teacher’s blend, in recent years GlenDronach has become better known as a single malt thanks to substantial investment by Pernod Ricard, who acquired ownership in 2008, and more recently by Brown-Forman (producers of Jack Daniel’s) who took over in 2016.46% ABV / 70cl

LAPHROAIG 10 YEAR OLD PRE-ROYAL WARRANT 1970S MINIATURE ISLAY SINGLE MALT Founded in 1815, and often considered to be the whisky equivalent of Marmite (in that you either love it or hate it), Laphroaig is a smoky, medicinal tasting whisky from the south coast of Islay. Clearly more people fall into the “love” category though, as Laphroaig is one of the top ten best selling single malts in the world. Just as well, then, that it is the second largest distillery on the island (after Caol Ila), capable of producing 3.4 million litres of spirit per annum.The distillery still retains its own malting floor, and although it only covers 20% of their requirements, it is instrumental in providing the creosote-y, phenolic character that defines the Laphroaig spirit.75° Proof / Approximately 5cl

JURA 21 YEAR OLD TIDE ISLAND SINGLE MALT With deer outnumbering people by around 25 to 1, it’s surprising the isle of Jura can sustain a distillery at all, let alone a decent sized one capable of supplying 2.2 million litres of spirit per annum. Although it was originally founded in 1810, the distillery closed at the turn of the century and wasn’t revived until the 1960 when it was completely rebuilt by two of the island’s local landowners.Despite the abundant peat available on the island, Jura’s style has tended to be somewhat lighter, as dictated by the blending requirements of its owners over the years. Today it is operated by Whyte & MacKay, under the Emperador umbrella.46.7% ABV / 70cl

He provides an important early eulogy of the legend of Robin Hood and Little John, and one of the earliest recorded mentions of Stonehenge. According to Anthony a Wood, 'Written in a Sorbonic and barbarous style, yet very truly and with great liberty of spirit ...' (Athenae Oxonienses). John Major, or Mair (1469-1550) was born in Haddington, near Edinburgh but moved to Paris where, after receiving his degree in 1494, he built his reputation as a theological scholar and teacher. Amongst his contemporaries in Paris at this time were Erasmus, Francois Rabelais, and Reginald Pole, and he was well enough known to be mentioned ironically in Rabelais's Gargantua as the author of a treatise on black puddings. In 1518 he returned to Scotland to become Principal of the University of Glasgow, and in 1533 was made Provost of St Salvator's College in the University of St Andrews, where his students included George Buchanan and John Knox.

Book of Hours, Unidentified Use, in Latin. Illuminated manuscript on vellum, [France: Angers, c. 1460s], i + 155 + i leaves, with catchwords, lacking the calendar and other leaves with illumination, perhaps including miniatures, some leaves bound out of place; part of f. 96 excised; 13 lines per page written in a fine gothic textura script (c. 50 × 35 mm); illuminated throughout with one- and two-line initials, and with LARGE ILLUMINATED INITIALS CONTAINING FLOWERS ACCOMPANIED BY A BORDER (ff. 1r, 52r, 56v, 61r, 70r, 143v); some smudging of pigments, the vellum generally slightly cockled and thumbed, with a few small holes and a few stains from rusted paper clips, a few leaves becoming loose, decorated gilt endpapers, burgundy morocco gilt bookplate of W. A. Foyle, Beeleigh Abbey, 16th-century red velvet, each cover with gilt metal corner- and centre-pieces, the spine with a pierced metal panel and the fore-edge with intact clasp, the velvet worn and the metal tarnished, but sound overall, small 8vo (108 × 78 mm)QTY: (1)NOTE:Provenance:Doubtless made at Angers, to judge by the style of illumination and a prayer that includes the names of at least five bishop-saints of Angers (f. 152v): Maurilius, Renatus, Albinus, Licinius, and Magnobod; others are Maurice (to whom Angers Cathedral is dedicated) and the rare Serenedus (venerated at Angers); the litany includes most of the same saints. Despite this, neither the Hours of the Virgin nor the Office of the Dead seem to be the normal texts for the Use of Angers, which suggests that the book may have been made for a nearby town that followed a different liturgy.Sold at Sotheby’s, 16 May 1955, lot 92 (lot 90 in the same sale was also in the Foyle collection and is now at the Bodleian Library, Oxford).W.

Book of Hours, Use of Rome, in Latin. Illuminated manuscript on vellum [Southern Netherlands, probably Bruges, c. 1460], ii + 74 + ii leaves, lacking a calendar and an uncertain number of other leaves, probably including miniatures, foliated in 19th-century red ink; ruled in purple-red ink for 19 lines per page, the ruled space 103 × 60 mm, written in a gothic textura script, with some very calligraphic flourishes (e.g. f. 1v), ILLUMINATED WITH ONE FULL-PAGE MINIATURE, LARGE FOLIATE INITIALS AND FULL BORDERS at the main textual divisions (ff. 1r, 3r, 6r, 49r), and with two-sided borders at the seven individual hours, plus the two prayers at the end; hundreds of one- and two-line illuminated initials throughout. marbled endpapers, burgundy morocco gilt bookplate of W.

Count Carlo Francesco Giacinto Caissotti di Chiusano (1754–1831): bought by ‘Caissotti di Chiusano’ for 24 lire in 1827 (inscription on front flyleaf).W. A. Foyle, Beeleigh Abbey (bookplate).Text:Hours of the Cross (f. 1r), and of the Holy Spirit (f. 3r); Mass of the Virgin (f. 6r); Hours of the Virgin (f. 14r), with Lauds (f. 21r), Prime (f. 29v), Terce (f. 32v), Sext (f. 35r), None (f. 37r), Vespers (f. 39v), and Compline (f. 44v); full-page miniature (f. 48v) and Seven Penitential Psalms (f. 49r), followed (f. 57r) by a Litany of saints; Office of the Dead (f. 60r); prayers ‘Obsecro te’ (f. 70v) and ‘O intemerata’ (f. 73v), both using masculine forms.Illumination:The decoration of this manuscript is typical of the mid-level works produced in large numbers in 15th-century Bruges both for locals and for visitors to the major trading town. The style of the surviving full-page miniature is related to that of the so-called Master of the Beady Eyes, which, with that of Willem Vrelant, was dominant in Bruges in the third quarter of the 15th century. An unusual feature of the present book is that the miniature is part of an integral bifolium, ruled for text, rather than a single leaf, blank on the back, as would be expected in Flanders at this date. This suggests that the book was produced by a stationer to sell ‘off-the-peg’, rather than to be customised with the insertion of miniatures according to the customer’s taste and pocket. The image shows the Last Judgement: Christ sits on an arc blessing, displaying his wounds, with a lily and a sword at his mouth, praised by the Virgin and John the Baptist, while souls rise from their graves.

Illuminated manuscript on vellum, [France: Rouen, c. 1480], ii + 160 + iii leaves, COMPLETE, collation: 112; 2–38, 42; 5–108, 114; 12–138, 144; 158; 16–218; tissue interleaves face the large miniatures; ff. 30r–v and 160v ruled, otherwise blank; ruled in red ink for 14 lines per page (16 in the calendar), the ruled space c. 90 × 60 mm, written in a fine gothic textura script, the calendar with major feasts in burnished gold, the others alternately red or blue, EVERY TEXT PAGE ILLUMINATED WITH AT LEAST ONE PANEL BORDER of semi-naturalistic flowers and plants on a gold ground, and blue and gold stylised acanthus on a plain parchment ground; the calendar with 24 SMALL SQUARE MINIATURES SET INTO PANEL BORDERS; the major divisions of the text marked by TWELVE LARGE MINIATURES above three or four lines of text and surrounded by full borders, SOME CONTAINING SUBSIDIARY MINIATURES, some containing animals, birds, or fantastic hybrid figures; TWO HISTORIATED INITIALS; a few prayers with 4-line initials; hundreds of two-line illuminated foliate initials, one-line initials, and line-fillers throughout; with a few minor blemishes (e.g. slight pigment loss in the lower right corner of the miniature on f. 31r, and slight water-staining in the lower left corner) but generally in fine, clean condition throughout, with ample margins, marbled endpapers, burgundy morocco gilt bookplate of W. A.

Prayers are written for the use of a female supplicant, and a conventional portrait of the original owner appears in the final miniature.An erased 17th(?)-century ownership(?) note begins ‘Mon dieu qui …’ (f. 2r, lower margin); the same owner may have been responsible for lightly disguising the nudity that occurs in some marginal scenes: Aquarius (f. 1v), Gemini (f. 5v) and Bathsheba (f. 83r).‘From Robinsons, 25/8/49’ (in pencil, front flyleaf), presumably referring to W.

(f. 151r) The Virgin and Child enthroned, adored by an angel and a female patronThe style is typical of Rouen illumination in the late 15th century; characteristic features are the profuse use of gold highlights on draperies and hillsides, often cross-hatched; cross-hatching of grassy areas in landscapes; a palette predominantly based on pink, blue, brown and green, and the use of grey for the modelling of facial features, men having rather swarthy flesh, and women very pale skin; the rather peremptory manner of painting hands; the grey-blue acanthus on flat gold backgrounds for borders.
