Scotch Whisky

Luceo is part of Dalmore's Fortuna Merita collection originally released for travel retail. Matured in Apostoles-sherry casks, this displays the classic distillery notes of cherries and toffee, along with nuts and ginger.

A long-awaited whisky from Bruichladdich - a 10 year old comprising solely of unpeated spirit produced since Murray McDavid took over the distillery at the turn of the century. A landmark in their production and the beginning of a new age for the distillery. Notes of gingerbread, honey and sultanas.

A unique whisky from Glenmorangie – everything about The Taghta was designed by consumers: the finishing cask, the name and the label design. Taghta (pronounced tuh-tah) is Scots Gaelic for 'chosen' and the whisky was finished in ex-Manzanilla casks.

This combination of bourbon- and sherry-cask-aged Islay single malt whisky is big, bold and peaty. Honeyed and autumnal tones combine with Islay smoke and charcoal dust. Sherry casks bring in richer fruity notes but still allow the clean, crisp spirit to shine through.

The second Tastival bottling from Isle of Jura was released for the eponymous festival which coincides with neighbouring Islay's Feis Ile. Distilled in 1997, it has been matured in ex-sparkling-wine casks from the Loire Valley's Bouvet Ladubay. Rich and fruity with notes of cherries, marzipan and liquorice.

Extra ageing has calmed the impact of the phenols, with the peat arriving on the palate late, and tempered by smooth oak. A very mellow, mature Islay malt.

The second coming of the Dalmore Cigar Malt, relaunched in an eye-catching red box. Fans of the previous edition will definitely want to get their hands on this.

An Cuan Mor (Gaelic for 'big ocean') is a travel retail bottling of Laphroaig. Aged in first-fill American white oak bourbon barrels, it is finished in European oak. Rich and spicy with a maritime character.

The 2001 vintage of Caol Ila's entry in Diageo's Distillers Edition range, taking their regular smoky malt and finishing it in sweet Moscatel-wine casks for an extra depth of sweetness.
