 | Johnnie Walker John Walker & Sons Celebratory Blend Limited Edition Scotch Whisky (700ml) Volume: 700ml ABV: 51% Age: No Age Statement Country: Scotland This is one of four limited edition labels produced to celebrate the 200th anniversary of Johnnie Walker. The brand Johnnie Walker was first created in 1820 by John Walker, a green grocer from Kilmarnock in Scotland. The Excise Act was introduced in 1823 relaxing strict laws on distillation and reduced the heavy taxes on distillation and the sale of whisky. John Walker sold blended malt and grain whiskies from his grocery store and as he did not have a brand of his own started to use his own name on the labels selling the blended malt as ‘Walker’s Kilmarnock Whisky. In 1860 the brand’s signature logo was introduced by Alexander Walker, a square bottle. This meant more bottles could fit into the same space and the bottles were less likely to break. The label was also introduced where it was applied at an angle of 24 degrees upwards left to right and allowed text to be made larger and more visible. In 1893 the Cardhu Distillery was purchased and this meant a steady run of Johnnie Walker could be produced with thoughts and plans for expansion. The Walker brand purchased Coleburn Distillery, Clynelish Distillery, Dailuaine Distillery and Talisker Distillery. In 1923 Mortlach Distillery as purchased and shaped the Walker strategy. In July 2009, the brand’s current owners, Diageo, decided to close all operations in Kilmarnock by 2012. This met with backlash from local people, local politicians, and then First Minister of Scotland, Alex Salmond.Despite petitions, public campaigns, and a large-scale march around Kilmarnock, Diageo proceeded with the closure. The Johnnie Walker plant in Kilmarnock closed its doors in March 2012 and the buildings were subsequently demolished a year later. In July 2020 Johnnie Walker looked at plans to develop a new environmentally-friendly paper bottle set to debut in early 2021. The third release in the collection of releases for the 200th anniversary sees Diageo celebrate a milestone in the history of the Johnnie Walker brands. Inspired by the release of ‘Old Highland Whisky’ in the 1860s, which was created primarily for export and became the first Johnnie Walker product to travel from Scotland to the four corners of the world. With more whisky being sold overseas, the iconic design of the square bottle and uniquely slanted label were distinct and helped the name stand out against other whiskies. “John Walker & Sons Celebratory Blend is a sensorial journey featuring notes of sweet dried raisins, subtle spice and marzipan, which develop into hints of roasted nuts, icing sugar sweetness and gentle peat, with a soft pepper finish. It celebrates a historic moment in the our story.” said Jim Beveridge, Johnnie Walker Master Blender Our Tasting Notes Nose: Dried dark fruits of plum and raisins, Christmas cake with icing sugar and marzipan. Palate: Christmas cake with toasted almonds, candy floss and subtle earthy smoke. Finish: Dark fruits and soft spices. | |

 | Ledaig Sinclair Series Rioja Cask Finish Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml) Volume: 700ml ABV: 46.3% Age: No Age Statement Country: Scotland The Ledaig or Tobermory Distillery is a single malt whisky distillery located on the island of Mull in the Inner Hebrides off the West Coast of Scotland. Originally founded in 1798 by John Sinclair, under the name Ledaig (pronounced ‘lea-chick’). The distillery closed in 1837 and reopening in 1878, the distillery was acquired in 1890 by John Hopkins and Company. Today, Tobermory is the only distillery on the Isle of Mull. The distillery has quite a small annual capacity of just one million litres and runs at but three quarters of this capacity. In 1930, the distillery closed and was used as a power plant. It was not the only time Tobermory had been used for purposes other than whisky distillation; in 1982 the buildings were leased to a dairy company who used them for storing cheese. The distillery uses malted barley which is shipped from the Port Ellen maltings at the South-East of Islay, also home to a more recent experiment whereby some casks are sent for maturation on the island, these are bottled as Ledaig. The usual releases show us that when it’s bottled Tobermory then no or little peat has been used in the production but when it is released as Ledaig there is a high amount of peat content in the production and therefor a smoky whisky is created. Ledaig (‘lea-chick’) Scots Gaelic meaning safe haven…… Wine from the famous Spanish region Rioja is characterised by intense aromas of blackberries, plums and spice….. This bottling is taken from the Sinclair Series. The series is named after the distillery’s founder, John Sinclair who also has a pier named after him on the island. He was aptly named “John Sinclair, Merchant of Tobermory”. This whisky has been finished in Rioja wine casks which impart some wonderful ripe red fruit sweetness to the whisky. Bottled at 46.3% ABV.

Palate: Heathery peat, stewed figs and plums, red berries, tart with dark chocolate and toasted almonds. Finish: Dark salted caramel, Cherry Ripe bars and a hint of clove. | |

This allows malt enthusiast to sample the huge variety of subtle differences which occur between casks. The Port Dundas Distillery was a landmark in Glasgow. Built in 1811 at the highest point in the city next to the banks of the Forth & Clyde Canal where it grew in size to become the largest distillery in Scotland. Its three Coffey stills and five pot stills produced over two million gallons of spirit a year. They used ‘American Corn’, barley and rye to produce their spirit. In 2010 its owner Diageo decided to concentrate its grain production at the Cameronbridge distillery. Although there were offers from rival distillers to buy Port Dundas they foundered – possibly because of the potential cost of another upgrade. In 2011, production ceased and the site was demolished. The landmark was gone forever but t some of the whisky lives on. A now closed distillery. This single grain whisky was distilled in 2006 at the Port Dundas distillery before being placed in bourbon barrels and left to mature for 12 years. In 2019 it was bottled at 43% abv as part of the Signatory Vintage Single Grain Collection. Our Tasting Notes Nose: Malted barley and dry grassy notes, tropical fruits and sweet pastry.

 | Oblivion Batch #1 Tasmanian Blended Malt Whisky – Dark Valley (500ml) Volume: 500ml ABV: 45% Age: No Age Statement Country: Australia Dark Valley is about one man, one man with a vision to showcase Australian whisky to the world at its very best. Alex Moores loves whisky. As a social activity, as a sensory experience, as a conversation topic, as an academic exercise. He has been drinking whisky since 2007, but his love of the industry didn’t truly begin until his first guided tasting a couple of years later. From that moment on, he has been trying as many different drams with as many different flavour profiles as possible. For him, it was all about devouring the information, nosing and tasting profiles, and meeting all the wonderful people from distillers to bar staff. Alex had a vision that he would bottle whiskies from all Tasmanian distilleries in a way that showcased the raw and elemental qualities of the different distilleries. A dedicated Australian independent bottler ensuring that bottles of the finest product possible end up in glasses across the country. Dark Valley comes from the Gaelic name Glen Dhu, which is now the headquarters of Dark Valley Whisky. The name is both a homage to the Scottish Gaelic roots of uisge beatha as the drink and to the Tasmanian natural resources that allow Tasmania to produce such world-class whisky. Known for our single cask, cask strength releases, Dark Valley are proud to be adding a different type of product to the range: a vatted malt that combines several of their amazing casks across several Tasmanian distilleries. This release has been crafted to combine flavours commonly associated with bourbon casks (vanilla, tropical, coconut) with the richness of fortified (berries, spice, syrup) and some red wine casks to balance the tannin. The underlying malt continues to shine through in a recognisably Tasmanian whisky. In addition to being a product that is greater than the sum of its parts, a vatting allows the Dark Valley producers to fill more bottles and bring them to you at a much lower price than single casks. This should provide a lovely entry point for those new to Dark Valley, or Tasmanian whisky in general, and a quaffable complement to any Dark Valley single cask. This vatted malt takes whisky from several Tasmanian distilleries and showcases exceptional flavour, mouthfeel and quality at a lowered ABV of 45%. Matured in ex-Bourbon barrels, ex-Sherry barrels, ex-Port barrles and ex-Red Wine barrels. Our Tasting Notes Nose: Stewed orchard fruits mainly peach and nectarine, vanilla pod, toasted fig, polished oak and raspberry jam.

James Eadie founded a brewery in Burton-on-Trent in 1854, the same year he developed the Trade Mark X Scotch blend. The blend was extremely popular and was sold to Eadie’s chain of public houses throughout the 19th century. In 1933 James’s business was sold to Bass who continued producing the blend till 1947.

The James Eadie Independent bottling’s consist of cask strength selections from various Scottish distilleries. Each bottle describes the distillery, the abv and the date of distillation and bottling as well as the maturation technique. First produced in 1854 and it was not till 1877 it was trademarked. Sold across Eadie’s chain of public houses that numbered 300 by the end of the 19th century. So popular was the blend that in 1889 whisky writer Alfred Barnard remarked in his Noted Breweries of Great Britain and Irleand (Volume 2) that the ‘ancient Scotch mixture’ was ‘dispensed to a favoured few’ at the brewer’s head office. In 1933 the business was sold to Bass, which continued the production of Trade Mark X until discontinuing the brand in 1947. Using 12 different whiskies from distilleries such as Caol Ila, Aberlour, Craiellachie and Lagavulin and also taking grain whisky from the closed distilleries of Cambus and Littlemill. ‘Trade Mark X was crafted during the first golden age of Scotch, when Victorian entrepreneurs like James Eadie produced elegant, high quality drinks and built them into strong brands.

 | Archie Rose St Ali Blasphemy Coffee Australian Whisky (700ml) Volume: 700ml ABV: 40% Age: No Age Statement Country: Australia The Archie Rose distillery was first established in 2015 by Will Edwards who had taken inspiration from visits in 2012 to distilleries in New York and Brooklyn. Gaining knowledge from local distilleries in Tasmania and from some of the pioneers of Australian distilling (Bill Lark, Peter Bignell to name a few) Edwards enlisted Peter Bailly (Australia’s only still maker at that time) to hand build three copper pot stills which were powered by gas and used steam to heat the wash. The key in the Archie Rose success story is the appointment of Dave Withers, Master Distiller. This was Dave’s first role as head of distilling and he had a lot to prove to his critics on not only how well he could distill but how innovative he could be. Producing a new style Australian whisky that was one day going to empower the world is not a task taken lightly by Dave or Edwards for that matter. The partnership has proved a huge success and one that we will look back on in decades and we will remember how it changed the Australian distilling culture and whisky scene. First batches have been very well awarded in both local and international levels. The Archie Rose Blasphemy is a powerful combination of Archie Rose Single Malt Whisky with St Ali Orthodox and Wide Awake Coffee. Blasphemy opens with notes of stewed apples, plum jam and fresh berries, then follows through into creme caramel, roasted hazelnuts, amaretto and dark chocolate. Great neat or with ice, or even try it in a Boulevardie. | |
 | Tobermory Classic Scottish Hebridean Gin (700ml) Volume: 700ml ABV: 43.3% Age: No Age Statement Country: Scotland The Ledaig or Tobermory Distillery is a single malt whisky distillery located on the island of Mull in the Inner Hebrides off the West Coast of Scotland. Originally founded in 1798 by John Sinclair, under the name Ledaig (pronounced ‘lea-chick’). The distillery closed in 1837 and reopening in 1878, the distillery was acquired in 1890 by John Hopkins and Company. Today, Tobermory is the only distillery on the Isle of Mull. The distillery has quite a small annual capacity of just one million litres and runs at but three quarters of this capacity. In 1930, the distillery closed and was used as a power plant. It was not the only time Tobermory had been used for purposes other than whisky distillation; in 1982 the buildings were leased to a dairy company who used them for storing cheese. The distillery uses malted barley which is shipped from the Port Ellen maltings at the South-East of Islay, also home to a more recent experiment whereby some casks are sent for maturation on the island, these are bottled as Ledaig. The usual releases show us that when it’s bottled Tobermory then no or little peat has been used in the production but when it is released as Ledaig there is a high amount of peat content in the production and therefor a smoky whisky is created. Tobermory is derived from the Gaelic phrase ‘Tobar Mhoire’, meaning “Mary’s well” which refers to a well located nearby which was dedicated in ancient times to the Virgin Mary. Better known for creating Scotch whisky, the Isle of Mull-based distillery Tobermory has created its own gin using local botanicals including juniper, tea, heather, elderflower, sweet orange peel, and a dash of Tobermory new-make spirit. Our Tasting Notes Nose: Citrus and coriander with fresh juniper and some malted barley. Palate: Sweet citrus, subtle coriander, balanced herbs and spices create a creamy and luxurious mouth-feel with malted barley. Finish: Long and lingering, fresh citrus and soft spice.

 | Archie Rose Bone Dry Gin (700ml) Volume: 700ml ABV: 44% Age: No Age Statement Country: Australia The Archie Rose distillery was first established in 2015 by Will Edwards who had taken inspiration from visits in 2012 to distilleries in New York and Brooklyn. Gaining knowledge from local distilleries in Tasmania and from some of the pioneers of Australian distilling (Bill Lark, Peter Bignell to name a few) Edwards enlisted Peter Bailly (Australia’s only still maker at that time) to hand build three copper pot stills which were powered by gas and used steam to heat the wash. The key in the Archie Rose success story is the appointment of Dave Withers, Master Distiller. This was Dave’s first role as head of distilling and he had a lot to prove to his critics on not only how well he could distill but how innovative he could be. Producing a new style Australian whisky that was one day going to empower the world is not a task taken lightly by Dave or Edwards for that matter. Created as a true homage to gin’s foremost botanical, Bone Dry Gin reverently showcases juniper’s raw power to deliver a hedonistic encounter with a bracingly dry finish. As the first gin released from our new Banksmeadow Distillery, this limited-edition spirit exemplifies the innovation made possible by our one-of-a-kind copper vacuum stills. | |
 | Hobart Tasmanian Whisky Liqueur (500ml) Volume: 500ml ABV: 35% Age: No Age Statement Country: Australia Situated in Hobart, Tasmania this family owned independent distillery was founded in 2014 and started producing in 2015. The distillery has been flying under the radar for quite a while now whilst creating enough stock to supply the high demand the market is throwing at them. Initially released as single cask bottlings the distillery is now concentrating on more consistent offerings. The distillery production is all performed in-house and maturation is predominantly in American oak ex-bourbon casks sourced from the United States. It’s these barrels that give Hobart whisky its edge on other distilleries. Whilst Apera and Fortified wine barrels are more commonly used in the Australian industry Hobart whisky uses the ex-bourbon barrels for initial maturation and then if required applies a finish of another barrel type to create a range of whisky unlike any other in Australia. This whisky liqueur was awarded the World’s Best Honey Liqueur in the 2022 World Whisky Awards. Bottled at 35% ABV to allow the signature Hobart single malt to come through. This liqueur is brilliant on its own, over ice, in a perfect cocktail or with tonic. You could even make a fabulous ‘hot toddie’ with it. Our Tasting Notes Nose: Honey sweetness, candied orange peel, sweet malty notes combine with soft spices. Palate: A floral palate of orange blossom and green barley, fresh fruit salad and dark chocolate. Finish: Long and satisfying, chocolate orange, spice and soft honey notes. | |

The wash still, in particular, is a source of fascination to visitors due to the absence of a ‘swan neck’. Legend has it that when the still was delivered it was too tall for the still house and the manager simply decided to cut the top off! The Old Pulteney bottle now incorporates a bulbous neck to reflect the shape of the stills. Matured wholly in air-dried, hand-selected ex-bourbon casks, the ‘unashamedly excellent’ Old Pulteney 12-years-old is the definitive expression in the Old Pulteney family. Traditionally crafted using techniques that other distillers have long abandoned, this winner of numerous gold medals at the most prestigious international competitions is a high water-mark of quality spirits. Our Managing Director’s first every single malt, a memorable experience. Bottled at 40% ABV and comes in a Chinese New Year designed gift box with two etched glasses.

 | Auchentoshan Aged 12 Years Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml) Volume: 700ml ABV: 40% Age: 12 Years Old Country: Scotland The Auchentoshan Distillery was first established in 1823 and is situated on the outskirts of Glasgow in Clydebank.

 | Archie Rose Signature Dry Gin (700ml) Volume: 700ml ABV: 42% Age: No Age Statement Country: Australia The Archie Rose distillery was first established in 2015 by Will Edwards who had taken inspiration from visits in 2012 to distilleries in New York and Brooklyn. Gaining knowledge from local distilleries in Tasmania and from some of the pioneers of Australian distilling (Bill Lark, Peter Bignell to name a few) Edwards enlisted Peter Bailly (Australia’s only still maker at that time) to hand build three copper pot stills which were powered by gas and used steam to heat the wash. The key in the Archie Rose success story is the appointment of Dave Withers, Master Distiller. This was Dave’s first role as head of distilling and he had a lot to prove to his critics on not only how well he could distill but how innovative he could be. Producing a new style Australian whisky that was one day going to empower the world is not a task taken lightly by Dave or Edwards for that matter. Signature Dry Gin is our contemporary Australian take on a classic dry gin and the cornerstone gin in the Archie Rose Signature Range of core spirits. Re-imagined six years after its launch, this spirit delivers more complexity, character, and highlights the most incredible botanical ingredients available today. Our botanicals were carefully distilled in our one-of-a-kind copper vacuum stills, using our unique cold distillation process to eliminate the adverse impacts of heat and create botanical distillates of clarity and distinct flavour. Featuring eight individually distilled botanicals, including sunrise lime and Geraldton waxflower, both native to Western Australia, and Dorrigo Pepperleaf sourced from Northern NSW, this spirit unites the east and west coasts to deliver a quintessentially Australian dry gin that offers a complex array of flavours. | |

 | One of the most prestigious wines of the world capable of great power and grace, Napa Valley Cabernet is a leading force in the world of fine, famous, collectible red wine. Today the Napa Valley and Cabernet Sauvignon are so intrinsically linked that it is difficult to discuss one without the other. But it wasn’t until the 1970s that this marriage came to light; sudden international recognition rained upon Napa with the victory of the Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars 1973 Cabernet Sauvignon in the 1976 Judgement of Paris. Cabernet Sauvignon undoubtedly dominates Napa Valley today, covering half of the land under vine, commanding the highest prices per ton and earning the most critical acclaim. Cabernet Sauvignon’s structure, acidity, capacity to thrive in multiple environs and ability to express nuances of vintage make it perfect for Napa Valley where incredible soil and geographical diversity are found and the climate is perfect for grape growing. Within the Napa Valley lie many smaller sub-AVAs that express specific characteristics based on situation, slope and soil—as a perfect example, Rutherford’s famous dust or Stags Leap District‘s tart cherry flavors. | |

About The Distillery Since 1898, the BenRiach distillery has very quietly been producing quality single malt scotch whisky, which has only ever been enjoyed in very small quantities, by a few discerning individuals who have been fortunate enough to come by a bottle. BenRiach, located in the Heart of Speyside – just south of Elgin, using casks containing the highest quality whisky has taken the industry experts by surprise due to their complexity and subtlety. Single malts from BenRiach have been called “perfection”, faultless” and “astounding” in Jim Murray’s 2014 Whisky Bible. With the BenRiach Aged 16 Years taking out Best Speyside Single Malt in the recent 2015 Icons of Whisky” “World Whisky Awards. Some are no less than outstanding examples of the art of whisky production. This whisky stock, reflecting the skill, knowledge and experience that has gone into the making of BenRiach is testimony to the many years stretching back to the 19th century during which the distillery built its reputation. Few distilleries in Scotland hold such a history and few today can have quite such an exciting future. | |

 | Pulteney Whisky Tasting – Zoom Event When: April 4th 2022 Time: 7PM AEDST (Melbourne Time) Where: Zoom Video Conference We’ll be joined by Inver House Distillers Sprits Ambassador Stuart Baxter who will guide us through each dram and talk us through the history of the Pulteney Distillery and their unique whisky making process. Stuart has a vast amount of knowledge in the whisky industry which he has gained from working at Gleneagles Hotel, Chivas Brothers as a Brand Ambassador, Brand Ambassador for Douglas Laing & Co. and also as the Spirits Ambassador for Inver House Distillers. Founded in 1826 by James Henderson at the height of Wick’s celebrated herring boom, the Pulteney Distillery is one of the most northerly on the British mainland. At a time when road links to the town were yet to be established, the distillery was dependent on the sea for its supply of barley and for the shipping out of its malt whisky. Wick became known for the barrels of silver (herring) and gold (whisky) which left the port in vast numbers. The distillery itself has an absorbing history, with its unique stills defying convention to this day. The wash still, in particular, is a source of fascination to visitors due to the absence of a ‘swan neck’. Legend has it that when the still was delivered it was too tall for the still house and the manager simply decided to cut the top off! The Old Pulteney bottle now incorporates a bulbous neck to reflect the shape of the stills.

 | Archie Rose Espress Yourself Bottled Cocktail (700ml) Volume: 700ml ABV: 16.7% Age: No Age Statement Country: Australia The Archie Rose distillery was first established in 2015 by Will Edwards who had taken inspiration from visits in 2012 to distilleries in New York and Brooklyn. Gaining knowledge from local distilleries in Tasmania and from some of the pioneers of Australian distilling (Bill Lark, Peter Bignell to name a few) Edwards enlisted Peter Bailly (Australia’s only still maker at that time) to hand build three copper pot stills which were powered by gas and used steam to heat the wash. The key in the Archie Rose success story is the appointment of Dave Withers, Master Distiller. This was Dave’s first role as head of distilling and he had a lot to prove to his critics on not only how well he could distill but how innovative he could be. Producing a new style Australian whisky that was one day going to empower the world is not a task taken lightly by Dave or Edwards for that matter. The Espress Yourself Bottled Cocktail is a gin based Espresso Martini. This cocktail features Archie Rose signature dry gin, golden roast cold brew, butterscotch and vanilla. Pour over ice or serve chilled and neat. | |

The whisky is distilled in two copper pot stills and aged in a combination of bourbon and sherry casks. Kilkerran single malt whiskies produced by Glengyle Distillery are known for their complexity, with flavors of fruit, honey, and smoke. The distillery produces a range of expressions, including 12-year-old, cask strength, and limited edition releases. Glengyle Distillery is one of just three active distilleries in Campbeltown and plays an important role in the revival of the region’s whisky industry.

 | Local & International Gin – Gin Pack One – The Whisky Company Whisky Bar (180ml) Designed to support our local bars and restaurants survive during this unprecedented time we have created a series of gin tastings pack like no other. This pack will support a fund to help bars in Sydney when the lockdown restrictions are lifted. This could be through free tastings, bottle donations or advertising. Two Free Bottles of StrangeLove Tonic No.8 With Every Pack. Gin 1 Apothecary Triple Juniper Tasmanian Gin (30ml) Apothecary Gin is distilled at Killara Distillery in Goodwood by second generation Australian Distiller Kristy Booth-Lark (daughter of Bill Lark). The distillery is the first one in Australia to be owned and operated by a second generation distiller (and a female!). Kristy has over 18 years experience in the industry. Apothecary Gin is produced using 10 different botanicals (including juniper, coriander, lemon, orange, olive leaf, camomile, lemongrass, pepper-berry) that are each individually distilled in a small copper pot still then married together to create the perfectly balanced gin. However this gin has triple the juniper. The main botanicals are juniper, coriander, several different types of citrus and some native Australian botanicals. This gives the gin a big juniper hit upfront and is the main flavour coming through to the palate though it is still well balanced with the other botanicals. The juniper is still prominent when mixed with tonic or other mixers. It is 40%abv but the extra kick of juniper makes it seem higher in alcohol. It’s really great to sip on it’s own if you like a big juniper taste or add a splash of your favourite mixer or into a cocktail. Gin 2 Kavalan Taiwanese Gin (30ml) ‘Above all, I wanted Kavalan Gin to be refreshing and elegant. Imagine taking a dip in a crystal pool on an intense summer’s day. That’s what I had in mind for the experience of drinking Kavalan Gin,’ Chang says on the distillery’s new gin. ‘Being a Taiwanese gin was also very important to me, just like Kavalan whisky is proudly Taiwanese. So I chose a mix of botanicals that could reflect Yilan and Taiwan. Yilan is famous for its zesty kumquats and sweet red-flesh guavas.

 | Murray McDavid Australian Exclusive Whisky Tasting When: Wednesday 18th August 2021 Time: 7PM AEST Where: Zoom Video Conference Established early in 1994, by London wine merchants Mark Reynier, Simon Coughlin and Springbank Distillery’s Gordon Wright. They quickly gained a reputation for maturing whisky in interesting casks, especially in fine wine casks. In 2000, the Murray McDavid team set about reopening the closed Bruichladdich Distillery on Islay, engaging the services of Jim McEwan, Islay’s most celebrated Master Distiller. In 2012, spirits giant Remy Cointreau purchased Bruichladdich Distillery and Murray McDavid. Later, Murray McDavid was sold to its current owners, leading Scotch whisky broker, Aceo Ltd. Today, the home of Murray McDavid is Coleburn Distillery in Speyside, where they continue the tradition of bottling artfully matured Scotch whisky. Murray McDavid caters for the whole family of Scotch ranging from their rare and prestigious single malts in the Mission Gold series to the Select Grains and through to their carefully Crafted Blends. At the heart of Murray McDavid is their outstanding wood policy. They look to use first fill casks from around the world, sourced from the best producers of fine drinks. With a truly astonishing diversity of casks from producers that includes whisky casks from Chicago’s Koval Distillery, Sherry butts from Bodegas Ximénez- Spínola, in Jerez, Spain. Tawny Port barrels from Caves de Murça, in Portugal, and even beer casks from the MOOR Beer Co. in Bristol, not to mention many highly acclaimed vineyards across France and Europe. Australian has an official importer for Murray McDavid and to celebrate we’re putting on a whisky tasting. So the majority of Australia can experience this wonderful whisky we have decided to launch this on a Zoom forum where all of the country can join in. We will be joined by Dean Jode the Head of Whisky Creations at Murray McDavid. Dean comes from the beautiful regency town, Cheltenham. In 2011, Dean started hosting drinks enthusiasts at Cheltenham’s adored whisky bar, John Gordons. Where he spent 4 years developing an impressive collection of whiskies, both old and new, with over 300 different malts from around the World. Dean’s involvement with Murrary McDavid started rather cryptically with a chance call from a fellow bar manager and an invitation to attend a private whisky tasting at one of Cheltenham’s finer establishments where Copita glasses were on the table, along with discreetly labelled bottle of golden liquids, it was all very mysterious. To his delight it was hosted by a company called Aceo Ltd. One of UK’s largest cask brokerages. Oddly enough, it wasn’t Scotch on the table, but a mighty fine line up of Irish single malts from the 80’s, outstanding and unexpected! With the tasting going well, conversation flowed, and Dean soon came to learn Aceo owned a dormant whisky brand… his ears perked up! Dean stayed in contact with the Aceo team over the months that followed with the view to help with the development of Murray McDavid brand. Today, Dean heads the whisky creations team at Murrary McDavid, and when not hosting whisky tastings, can be found playing his trade in traditional dunnage warehouses at Coleburn Distillery, in Elgin. Our very own whisky enthusiast Craig Merson and Dean Jode will take us through and discuss the following whiskies…….

 | Aerstone Land Cask Aged 10 Years Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml) Volume: 700ml ABV: 40% Age: 10 Years Old Country: Scotland Enjoy Sea Cask and Land Cask. William Grant & Sons two carefully matured 10-year-old single malt whiskies with two clearly differentiated tastes. Sea Cask whisky is smooth and easy thanks to the maturation process in their warehouses by the sea on the Ayrshire coast in Scotland. Land Cask whisky is matured further inland using Scottish highland peat for a rich and smoky character. Aged in separate casks and exposed to opposing climatic conditions, Sea Cask and Land Cask are both matured to sip, savour and enjoy. Carefully matured for over 10 years in warehouses, located much further inland than those used for Sea Cask. This different climate impacts the maturation process and delivers a deep, rich and smoky style of whisky. Aerstone showcases two distinctive styles of single malt scotch whisky which are clearly defined by their taste profile on the bottle and pack. Our Tasting Notes Nose: Vanilla essence, salty sea air, melted tar, smoked meats, orchard fruits and some peppery spice. Palate: Honeycomb and sea salted smoked meats, citrus, sea air, aniseed and charred oak. Finish: Vanilla fudge, smokey oak embers and spice. | |
 | Dimple Aged 12 Years Blended Scotch Whisky (700ml) Volume: 700ml ABV: 40% Age: 12 Years Old Country: Scotland Dimple Haig, or Dimple Pinch, first came to market in 1893 at a time when demand for blended Scotch whisky was expanding in all directions. The Haig family and their network of cousins dominated the industrial Lowland whisky scene and were supremely well-placed to surf the boom. This fantastic Scotch is a blend of 12 year old whiskies specially selected with a high malt proportion, including whiskies from Glenkinchie and Linkwood Our Tasting Notes Nose: Spice and caramel toffee, with a hint of citrus Palate: Continued caramel flavours blend with notes of smoke and oak Finish: Toffee and oak are most prevalent in this short finish | |
 | Adelphi Blended Scotch Whisky – Adelphi (700ml) Volume: 700ml ABV: 40% Age: N/A Country: Scotland Adelphi exist to identify the very small number of casks that have produced the ultimate whiskies. The criteria for selection include rarity and maturity, but above all flavour. These whiskies are both rare and sought-after – these very special casks are so rare that, on average, Adelphi accepts a mere 4% that it is offered. Each single cask of whisky matures its contents very differently, imparting its own character to the whisky it holds and, as a result, there are never two Adelphi’s quite the same. Adelphi have released this blended whisky using a blend of grain and malt whisky which is kept in a solera system. We’re not given a clue as to where they source the whisky but we do know that they use whiskies from all over Scotland. Our Tasting Notes Nose: A combination of orchard fruits, dried dark fruits and salty smoky peaty spirit. Palate: Sea salt and toasted nuts, subtle dried fruits combines with some soft smoke. Finish: Long and delicious, bonfire smoke, salted and grilled orchard fruits. | |
