The new whiskies from the Summer 2021 release includes 6 incredibly diverse and distinctive products from around the world. The Small Batch whiskies are a perfect way to begin exploring the unique character and style of some of Scotland’s most iconic distilleries. While most distilleries maintain a broadly consistent style and flavour, individual casks can vary significantly in taste and quality. The Small Batch selected for this Summer 2021 release is a 2009 Linkwood -a 12 year-old whisky from refill hogshead casks priced at £60 captures a distinctive interpretation of the distillery’s style and showcases exceptional quality and character that is unique to this limited-edition bottling, as well as a vivacious flavour profile of peach, banana and melon with a touch of toasted oak. The bottling is suited to a drinker keen to expand their knowledge of Speyside distilling.

Meanwhile, the new Single Cask bottlings continue a long-standing tradition of selecting distinctive single-cask bottlings from some of the very best producers in Scotland, a practice that began in the 1800s and is still honoured by the brand today but also embraces a more innovative approach in bottling exceptional whiskies from around the world with a curiosity to try new approaches such as the twin casks of Williamson and Guyana single casks. The Single Cask collection includes the 2014 Guyana Rum Finish from Islay producer Williamson, an idiosyncratic and powerful whisky matured in a former South American rum cask and priced at £80; and the floral and fruity Sutherland 2000, matured in a hogshead from the Highlands and priced at £170. Completing the line-up are a first fill Bourbon barrel finish of the rarely seen, heavily-peated malt Lochindaal from Bruichladdich distillery in Islay, priced at £200, and a rich, spicy and complex 2016 bottling from the Lark Distillery in Tasmania, priced at £250. All are suited to whisky connoisseurs in search of exquisite and exclusive bottlings from some truly iconic distilleries across a range of styles. Finally, the 2010 Islay Barrel Finish by Diamond Distillery in Guyana is an excellent example of the quality and flavour of the South American country’s rich rum-distilling heritage.
