AUCHENTOSHAN 1965 31 YEAR OLD SINGLE CASK #2144 LOWLAND SINGLE MALT Auchentoshan is part of a small minority of Scottish distilleries, in that every drop of whisky it produces is sold as a single malt. Similarly unusual is its use of triple distillation to produce a purer spirit that’s light and mildly fruity.Situated just outside Clydebank, the distillery was lucky to survive the 1941 blitz relatively unscathed. Only one of its warehouses was damaged by a bomb blast, and another near miss provided a blast crater that later became the distillery’s picturesque pond.Distilled: 04/10/1965Matured in Hogshead #214445.6% ABV / 70cl

CRAIGELLACHIE 14 YEAR OLD FLORA & FAUNA SPEYSIDE SINGLE MALT Craigellachie is another distillery that actively encourages sulphurous notes in its spirit by minimising copper contact during the distillation process. This is balanced by a long fermentation beforehand, allowing tropical fruit notes to emerge. Much like fellow Speysiders Mortlach, Benrinnes and Cragganmore, this makes it highly sought after by blenders.In 2014 the brand was relaunched as a single malt, and several of their expressions have won industry awards.43% ABV / 70cl
MACALLAN 1992 ELEGANCIA 1L 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.40% ABV / 1L
GLENDRONACH 15 YEAR OLD 1990S 1L 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 2016.40% ABV / 1L
MACALLAN 12 YEAR OLD 1990S 1L 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.43% ABV / 1L
HIGHLAND PARK 1973 28 YEAR OLD SINGLE CASKS #11151 AND #11167 ISLAND SINGLE MALT Orkney’s Highland Park distillery is situated in the town of Kirkwall on the site of an illicit still thought to have been operated by Magnus Eunson, a smuggler, local butcher and former priest who was directly descended from Viking settlers. With that heritage, it’s fitting that today they frequently draw from Scandinavian mythology when it comes to naming their whiskies.The distillery is known for its signature style that utilises Orcadian peat in the malting process, resulting in a fragrant, heathery spirit that is most often left matured in Sherry wood.Released as a pair, these two sister casks were laid down on the same day, and spent their 28 year maturation resting just a few feet apart from one another. Despite this, the resulting expressions are noticeably distinct in colour and flavour. This lot would make a fascinating head-to-head tasting!Distilled: October 1973Bottled: 22nd February 2001Sherry casks#11151 - Bottle Number 368 / 500 - 45.4% ABV / 70cl#11167 - Bottle Number 434 / 524 - 50.4% ABV / 70clQty: 2
ARRAN 14 YEAR OLD ISLAND SINGLE MALT Still a relative youngster in whisky terms, Arran distillery began production in 1995. Thanks to a focus on sourcing quality casks, and its light, accessible spirit that ages well, Arran has proven extremely successful. So much so, that in 2017 they began construction of a second distillery on the other side of the island. Sharing a name with Arran’s only other previous legal still (closed in 1837), Lagg distillery focuses on producing peated spirit.46% ABV / 70cl
LOCH DHU 10 YEAR OLD SPEYSIDE SINGLE MALT With its use of "double charred" casks (and possibly a generous helping of E150A spirit caramel) Loch Dhu is about as divisive as whisky gets. Depite this, it performs well at auction with devotees clamouring to get their hands on this now discontinued expression from Mannochmore distillery.40% ABV / 70cl
CRAGGANMORE 12 YEAR OLD SPEYSIDE SINGLE MALT Like fellow Speysiders Mortlach and Benrinnes, Cragganmore is a complex and weighty spirit highly prised by blenders. The secret of this “heft” is down to their long fermentation, unusually shaped stills and worm tub condensers. Also, unusually for a Speyside whisky, Cragganmore uses barley that has been lightly peated.With most of its output making its way into blends, the only single malts in the distillery’s core range is their excellent 12 Year Old and the Port finished Distillers Edition.40% ABV / 70cl
ABERLOUR A'BUNADH BATCH #46 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.60.4% ABV / 70cl
MACALLAN 10 YEAR OLD 2004 RELEASE 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.

GLENMORANGIE 10 YEAR OLD TRADITIONAL 100° PROOF 1L HIGHLAND 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.57.2% ABV / 1L
AUCHENTOSHAN 2004 DISTILLERY CASK #933 LOWLAND SINGLE MALT Auchentoshan is part of a small minority of Scottish distilleries, in that every drop of whisky it produces is sold as a single malt. Similarly unusual is its use of triple distillation to produce a purer spirit that’s light and mildly fruity.Situated just outside Clydebank, the distillery was lucky to survive the 1941 blitz relatively unscathed. Only one of its warehouses was damaged by a bomb blast, and another near miss provided a blast crater that later became the distillery’s picturesque pond.Distilled: 23/09/2007Bottled: 20/12/2015Matured in Oloroso Cask #93360.1% ABV / 70cl
ARDBEG 25 YEAR OLD LORD OF THE ISLES ISLAY SINGLE MALT Located on the island’s rugged south coast, Ardbeg distillery represents the peatier end of the Islay spectrum. While it has endured some tough times, spending several years mothballed, the distillery has undergone a bit of a renaissance since being bought over by Glenmorangie and is now on a stable footing.While it still retains its signature sooty spirit, Ardbeg has also adopted its new parent company’s fondness for experimental cask finishes, arguably increasing its appeal.46% ABV / 70clThere is some minor damage to the inside of the box. Please see additional photographs for details.The bottle code L3 170 1210 4ML identifies this a 2003 Lord of The Isles release.
MACALLAN GOLD DOUBLE CASK SPEYSIDE SINGLE MALT There are few distilleries in the world quite so revered as Macallan.

BUNNAHABHAIN 2007 11 YEAR OLD FRENCH BRANDY CASK FINISH ISLAY SINGLE MALT Purpose built in 1881 by William Baxter, Bunnahabhain distillery on the northeast coast of Islay featured housing for its workers, as well as its own pier for ease of transporting whisky and materials to and from the mainland. As with most distilleries, much of its life was spent producing blending stock, but in the late 1980s it began to appear as a single malt.Initially this single malt output was mostly sherry matured and so lightly peated as to be barely perceptible, placing Bunna’ firmly in the minority of Islay whiskies. However, since its takeover by Distell in 2013 around 20% of the spirit produced there is now heavily peated, with these expressions bearing the name “Moine” (the Gaelic word for peat).Distilled: 22/09/2007Bottled: April 2019Finished in Brandy Butts.Bottle Number: 2076 / 276452.5% ABV / 70cl
ARRAN 21 YEAR OLD ISLAND SINGLE MALT Still a relative youngster in whisky terms, Arran distillery began production in 1995. Thanks to a focus on sourcing quality casks, and its light, accessible spirit that ages well, Arran has proven extremely successful. So much so, that in 2017 they began construction of a second distillery on the other side of the island.
