Expert Reviews

The Wine Enthusiast 90 Points | The name of this whisky has nothing to do with coffee—rather, it's named for a type of still invented by Aneas Coffey, which is used to make this golden spirit. It offers mild vanilla-pear aromatics and is relatively light and silky on the palate. Look for a light vanilla sweetness at first, which gives way to a rounded dark chocolate note and baking spice finish. Recommended for highballs and other mixed drinks. 

Producer Description 

Coffey Malt is made from 100% malted barley. However it is not categorized as “malt whisky” but as “grain whisky” since it is not distilled in a pot still. This unique production method results in extraordinary flavors and texture. 

Memo Summary Notes

The Nikka Coffey Malt Whisky is a unique and celebrated expression from Japan that defies traditional Scotch-style categorizations. While it is made from 100% malted barley, it is classified simply as "Whisky" (rather than Single Malt) because it is distilled in a Coffey still (a traditional column still) rather than a pot still.

Ketel One Botanical is the result of more than 300 years of Nolet family distilling expertise, reimagined for a lighter, more natural drinking experience. Crafted at the family distillery in Schiedam, Holland, each expression in the Botanical Series is made by distilling Ketel One vodka with real botanicals and infusing it with natural fruit essence — with no sugar, no artificial sweeteners and no artificial flavors. The result is a spirit that is genuinely fresh, clean and crisp.

Peach & Orange Blossom is the lush, fragrant expression of the series — built around the juicy sweetness of white peach and the delicate floral lift of orange blossom. Each botanical essence is individually and naturally obtained through innovative extraction methods and distillation processes, ensuring the freshest possible character in every pour. At 30% ABV, it is lighter than traditional vodka and exceptionally versatile.

Tasting Notes

Inviting aromas of ripe white peach and fragrant orange blossom, with a clean, fresh and lightly floral character. The palate is smooth and juicy, with a crisp, dry finish. Light-bodied and refreshing — made for easy, effortless drinking.

Serving Suggestion

Best enjoyed over ice with soda water and a slice of fresh peach or orange. Also excellent in a spritz, light cocktails or simply on the rocks.

Emilio Lustau has been one of Jerez's most celebrated bodegas for over a century, bringing the same Sherry-house precision and depth of knowledge to their vermouth range. The Vermut Blanco is a masterclass in balance — a dry white vermouth built on the foundation of two iconic Jerez wines, each contributing something essential to the final blend.

The Lustau Vermut Blanco Vermouth Jerez 750ml is a marriage of dry, mineral Fino Sherry and sweet, floral Moscatel — a combination that creates a vermouth of remarkable complexity and elegance. Intense bright yellow in the glass with golden reflections, it opens with floral, citrusy, and herbaceous notes over a yeasty, mineral base. On the palate it is crisp and refreshing, with a long, nutty, and pleasantly bitter finish that is unmistakably Jerez in character.

Tasting Notes

• Color: Intense bright yellow with golden reflections
• Nose: Floral, citrusy, and herbaceous over a yeasty, mineral base

Havana Club Añejo Blanco | Puerto Rican Rum | 750ml

Born from a recipe that survived revolution, exile, and decades of silence, Havana Club Añejo Blanco is a rum with a story as layered as its flavor. The Arechabala family first registered the Havana Club trademark in 1934, crafting a spirit that became synonymous with Cuba's Golden Age — the swanky nightspots, the pulsating Latin rhythms, the sultry tropical nights. When the Cuban regime seized their distillery in 1960, the family fled with little more than the precious recipe in hand.

Decades later, Bacardi — bound by long-standing ties to the Arechabala family — acquired the original recipe and relaunched Havana Club in Puerto Rico in 1995, faithful to Ramon Arechabala's personal transcription. The result is a rum that honors its Cuban heritage while carrying the craft of Puerto Rican distilling.

Aged one year in oak barrels, then blended and rested for a minimum of two additional months, Añejo Blanco opens with bright tropical fruit aromas and a whisper of vanilla. On the palate, it's smooth and well-rounded, with gentle oak and a clean, lingering finish — equally at home in a classic Mojito or Daiquiri as it is sipped neat.

• Style: White Rum
• Origin: Puerto Rico
• Aging: 1 year in oak + 2 months blended
• Tasting Notes: Tropical fruit, vanilla, light oak
• Size: 750ml | ABV: 40%

Producer Description

Producer Description 

With a mellow yet complex flavor, this rum offers tobacco and leather notes, toasted and smoky. The rounded rum offers a balance that can only be achieved through the Solera method.

Producer Description 

Old Forester 1897 Bottled in Bond is crafted to honor a watershed moment in bourbon history – the U.S. Bottled-in-Bond Act of 1897. This expression follows the Bottled in Bond standards that whisky must be aged in a federally bonded warehouse for at least four years, the product of one distillation season, one distiller and from one distillery and bottled at 100 Proof.

The concept behind these regulations – the idea of ‘sealed in quality’ – was something Old Forester introduced in 1870, as America’s First Bottled Bourbon.

Amaro Lucano 750ml

Amaro Lucano has been produced in Pisticci, Basilicata — the sun-baked heel of Italy's boot — since 1894, when pastry chef Pasquale Vena first blended his secret recipe of herbs and botanicals. Over 130 years later, the recipe remains a closely guarded family secret, passed from father to son across four generations of the Vena family. What is known: more than 30 herbs, roots, and botanicals go into every bottle, producing a bittersweet amaro of extraordinary complexity and balance — one that became the official amaro of the Italian Royal House and remains one of Italy’s most beloved digestivi.

Elegant and complex, Amaro Lucano strikes the perfect balance between bitter and sweet — with floral notes, a whisper of citrus, and a long, warming finish that makes it exceptional on its own over ice, in a spritz, or as the secret weapon in a cocktail.

"It contains the essence of more than 30 herbs, a symphony of flavours to which its unique taste — both delicately balanced and invigorating — can be attributed. In this blend you should detect floral notes, a whisper of citrus… among others… I cannot bring myself to disclose anything further!" — The Vena Family, Amaro Lucano

Producer Description 

Created in partnership with Nick Offerman, Lagavulin Offerman Edition 11 Year Old Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a woody and peaty, fruity and spicy offering. The woody, peaty notes lead from the front, gently tingling the tongue in a cha-cha before fading to reveal a veritable waltz of sweet berry and orchard fruit notes. Aged in a mix of refilled and rejuvenated American Oak barrels, this whisky demands to be served in a traditional whisky glass, neat or with a little water.

Carrying on a 200-year-old tradition of distilling excellence, the Lagavulin distillery is said to be one of the oldest distilleries on Islay. Founded in 1816 by farmer John Johnston and later led by Peter Mackie in 1890, the name Lagavulin was to become the last word on the delicacy of Islay malts. Miles and miles of peat bog in the west of the island provide the raw material which imbues the barley with their iconic smoky flavor, and the rich peaty water from the tranquil Lochan Sholum in the hills above the distillery makes the flavors so unique. It takes time, but patience is their finest virtue and rushing good whisky is just not how they take care of things in Islay.

Expert Review

Forbes Magazine: This is an exceptionally smooth Cognac. Matured for four years. On the nose, it offers up rich floral aromas of violet, jasmine, roses, white flowers and peonies, along with intense fruity notes of sweet caramel apples, honey and both fresh and dried fruit, especially prune, peach and apricot, along with Sauterne like notes of golden raisin and fig, as well as some passion fruit and a touch of vanilla. There is also an earthy, black tea like quality in the background, and a hint of waxiness.

Recently, Camus, the largest of the family owned Cognac producers, released a new addition to its core range of Cognacs—labeled Intensely Aromatic. The Cognacs were the culmination of a two-decade long effort to craft Cognacs that are notably more aromatic and flavorful than the norm.

Camus’ Cognacs have always had a reputation for being particularly aromatic. To further enhance that character Camus developed a proprietary distillation protocol, which it calls “Intensity,” that measurably increases the concentration of terpenes and esters in their Cognac, producing what the company describes as an “instant of intensity.”

Terpenes are a large and diverse class of organic compounds, produced by a variety of plants. They are closely associated with floral aromas. Esters are chemicals produced by the interaction of alcohols and fatty acids, and are closely associated with fruity aromas.

In crafting Intensely Aromatic, the firm utilized older casks made from lightly toasted, fine grained oak. The age and toasting of the casks minimized the aroma and flavor components that were contributed by the cask wood and further enhanced the prominence of fruit and floral aromas.

The team at Michter's conducts their distilling by the tried and true Kentucky practices, while experimenting for the purpose of making the greatest American whiskeys. The Michter's team conducted years of research on different barrel finishes for their rye whiskey, and have proudly produced the Michter's US-1 Limited Release Toasted Barrel Finish Rye Whiskey.

To produce this Toasted Barrel Strength Rye Whiskey, they took their US-1 Kentucky Straight Rye at barrel strength and aged it longer in a second custom barrel. The second barrel is assembled from 24 month air dried wood, and toasted to Michter's specification.

The deep reddish brown color leads to scents of spicy rye and cooking brown sugar. The initial flavors of rye and dark brown sugar gives way to the subtle hints of oak and dark baking spices. There is a silky finish that ends with more rye and orange peels. Producer Notes.

Winemaker Description 

This Vermouth uses a mixture of 26 aromatic herbs such as marjoram leaves, gentian roots, orange zest and others, which all together compose our family recipe. We then add a blend of different Pio Cesare white wines, including our Moscato d’Asti. After a 15-day maceration, the Vermouth obtained is aged in oak barrels for at least 4 months. The Recipe is finally completed with the addition of caramel, which gives our Vermouth its light color, and its distinctive aroma and taste. In order to better appreciate our Pio Cesare Vermouth, we recommend drinking it in the old “piemontese style”, sipping it with no ice, but just a little slice of lemon zest.

Expert Review

Robert Parker 90+ Points | The NV Vermouth di Torino is based on Chardonnay but is infused and aromatized with cloves, cinnamon, quinine, citrus peel, ginger, nutmeg, marjoram and other secret ingredients that were written down on a piece of paper in 1952 and kept under lock and key ever since. The folks at Pio Cesare did well to bring this traditional recipe for Vermouth back into circulation. This is an ideal aperitivo drink that can be served on ice with a slice of lemon. It opens to a bright orange-gold color and offers a complicated bouquet that recalls the many aromatic ingredients used in the infusion. The fishing is sweet, but not excessively so.

Thoughtful, hand-selected small batch bourbon that celebrates craftsmanship and character. Rich and smooth, it opens with warm notes of caramel, vanilla, and toasted oak, followed by layered spices and a subtle hint of dried fruit. The finish is long and balanced—comforting yet bold—perfect for sipping neat by the fire or elevating a classic bourbon cocktail.

If you want to tailor the wording (e.g., bold & dramatic, casual & fun, or detailed tasting notes), just tell me the vibe!

Cachaça 51 — Pirassununga, São Paulo, Brazil (1.0L)

Cachaça is Brazil's national spirit and one of the world's great distilling traditions — produced since 1543, when the process was first developed near the port of Santos, São Paulo, making it one of the oldest distilled spirits in the Americas. Unlike rum, which is distilled from molasses, cachaça is distilled directly from the fresh juice of unrefined sugarcane — called garapa — preserving the raw, vibrant character of the cane itself. Cachaça 51 is produced in Pirassununga, São Paulo, in the heart of Brazil's sugarcane plantation country, from top-quality cane varieties selected for their freshness and flavor. It is Brazil's leading cachaça brand and, as of 2013, the second best-selling distilled spirit in the world — sold from corner markets in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro to the farthest reaches of the Amazon. The 'Cool Spirit' of Brazil, Cachaça 51 is the essential base of the world-famous Caipirinha cocktail and the definitive introduction to Brazil's most beloved spirit.

Unaged and crystal clear, Cachaça 51 is fresh, clean, and vibrant — the unmistakable scent of sugarcane on the nose, with a lively, slightly sweet character on the palate and a clean, crisp finish. Versatile and approachable, it is equally at home in a classic Caipirinha, mixed with fruit juices, or sipped neat over ice.

"Made from top quality cane varieties in Brazil's plantation heartland. The biggest selling brand of its type in the world — and the essential base for an excellent Caipirinha." — Cachaça 51, Producer
