Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky | Port Ellen, Islay / Scotland
Size: 750ml  |  Non Chill-Filtered

Ardbeg is one of Islay’s most legendary distilleries — a remote, windswept outpost on the southern shore of the island that has been producing some of Scotland’s most intensely peated single malts since 1815. For devotees of smoky whisky, Ardbeg is a pilgrimage destination; for everyone else, it is a revelation.

An Oa (pronounced “an-OH”, named for the Oa peninsula at Islay’s southern tip) is the most approachable expression in the Ardbeg range — and the most deliberately rounded. Its singular character comes from time spent in a bespoke oak Gathering Vat, where whiskies from multiple cask types — sweet Pedro Ximénez, spicy virgin charred oak, and intense ex-bourbon — are brought together to harmonize before bottling. The result is Ardbeg’s hallmark peat and dark chocolate, mellowed by a delectable smooth sweetness: aniseed, silky butterscotch, black pepper, and clove, rising to an intense crescendo of flavor. Non chill-filtered, as it should be.

“A dram with smoky power, mellowed by a delectable, smooth sweetness. Hallmark Ardbeg peat, dark chocolate and aniseed are wrapped in smooth, silky butterscotch, black pepper and clove, before rising to an intense crescendo of flavour.”
— Ardbeg Distillery

Casks: Pedro Ximénez · Virgin charred oak · Ex-bourbon · Gathering Vat finishing
Non chill-filtered
Serve: Neat or with a few drops of water to open the peat. Pairs with dark chocolate, smoked meats, or aged cheddar.

Dewar's White Label Blended Scotch Whisky — Scotland 1.0L

Dewar's White Label is one of the world's best-selling Scotch whiskies — and for good reason. First created over a century ago by Dewar's master blender, White Label is built around a core of Aberfeldy single malt, one of the Highlands' most honeyed and characterful distilleries, blended with approximately 40 different whiskies to achieve a consistent, approachable, and genuinely satisfying dram. Founded in Perth in 1846, Dewar's is one of Scotland's most iconic whisky houses — and White Label remains their signature expression.

The whisky pours a warm amber gold. The nose opens with honey, ripe peach, green apple, and cut hay — fresh and inviting. On the palate, it's medium-bodied with vanilla fudge, a touch of smoke, toffee, heather honey, and gentle oak. The finish is good length, with cut herbs and a lingering honeyed sweetness that makes it endlessly sippable. Equally at home neat, on the rocks, or as the backbone of a Highball or Rob Roy.

"White Label contains around 40 different whiskies in the blend, with Aberfeldy at its heart." — Dewar's

The world's most trusted blended Scotch in a generous liter format — Aberfeldy-driven, honeyed, and built for sharing.

94 Points  Whisky Advocate | Number 1 in the 2018 Top 20. Notably balanced and elegant, the colorful palette of whiskies combines for tremendous depth of flavor. Soft, sweet butterscotch and orange peel meet poached pears and stone fruits. Earthiness appears as dried autumn leaves, coffee, old oak, and tobacco. Among the tangle of spices, tasters identified chili pepper, allspice, cloves, and universally adored its ginger note. Finally, wisps of smoke and sea salt. Overall, it feels generously malty, with the grain whisky lending broad sweetness and supple mouthfeel across the long finish. Beyond its delightful flavors, Nikka From the Barrel presents some paradoxes worthy of contemplation over a glass. It is a classic, yet new to the U.S. It is typically Japanese, yet singularly magnificent. It is delightful sipped neat and also blossoms with water. Even the simple, squat bottle is in contrast to the profound complexity within. (Fortunately, the 500 ml bottle offered in other markets received a supersizing for U.S. drinkers.) The great majority of new Japanese whiskies now arriving to our shores are so rare and so expensive that they seem intended only for elite whisky lovers. Nikka From the Barrel is a consummate Japanese blend for anyone to enjoy. - Winter 2018

91 Points Beverage Tasting Institute | Dark amber color. Aromas of cinnamon pastry, pickled ginger, sourdough, honey, and raisins with a silky, crisp, fruity medium body and a tingling, compelling, medium-length crepes, dulce de leche, butter-poached pear, and toasted spice cake finish. A rich and toasty Japanese blended whisky that offers big character that will stand up in craft cocktails.

Nikka From The Barrel, according to those behind it, was first introduced into Japan back in 1986, and is considered a coveted expression for travelers to bring back from its homeland. It is a Japanese blended whisky, bringing together a very complex mix of more than 100 different batches of malt whisky and grain whisky produced at Nikka’s Yoichi and Miyagikyo distilleries, and aged in multiple types of casks: ex-bourbon barrels and puncheons, ex-sherry butts, and refilled, recharred and remade hogsheads. While non-age statement in nature, importer Hotaling & Co. did note the blend undergoes three to six months of additional aging at Nikka’s aging cellar to help in the marriage of flavors.

Oban Little Bay Small Cask — Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Oban is one of Scotland’s oldest and most storied distilleries, founded in 1794 on the rugged west coast of the Highlands — a town and a distillery that grew up together. Perched between the mountains and the sea, Oban occupies a unique geographic position that gives its whisky a character unlike any other: maritime and coastal, yet rich and warming, with none of the heavy peat of the islands. Little Bay is Oban’s small cask expression — matured in a combination of small casks including American oak, European oak, and small refill casks, which accelerate maturation and impart exceptional depth and complexity. The result is a whisky of remarkable richness and approachability, with a medium to rich body and good viscosity that makes it one of the most satisfying drams in the Highland canon.

The nose opens with rich nuttiness balanced by ripe orchard fruits — inviting and layered. On the palate, chewy fruit bread, orange spice, and crisp green apple give way to a long, elegant finish of dark chocolate tannins. A whisky that rewards both the newcomer and the seasoned collector.

A richly layered Highland single malt from one of Scotland’s oldest distilleries — Oban Little Bay is the small cask expression that delivers outsized character.

Expert Review

Wine Enthusiast 94 Points | The name of this whisky is a nod to how it s matured in three different casks: American Bourbon, Spanish oloroso and Pedro Ximenez Sherry. It s robust, with a deep amber hue and rich caramel scent. The flavor profile shows toffee, campfire smoke and a mouthwatering butterscotch note on the exhale. It almost reads like a peated Bourbon.

Producer Description 

Created with roasted black malt, roasted to the extreme, this spirit is all about what happens up front – centre stage. The malt is what defines its distinctive profile. Described as tasting like ‘biting on a spiky ball’, Ardcore is a dram that wears its heart on its sleeve… its black heart! 

Producer Description 

Forager’s Keep 26 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky is the latest release from the Orphan Barrel Whiskey Distilling Co. It is the fourteenth release and the first single malt Scotch whisky to appear in the collection.

Perhaps the shortest lived of all Speyside distilleries, Pittyvaich—Gaelic for ‘farmstead at the birch wood’— was the innocent victim of industry restructuring. The distillery closed in 1993 through no fault of its whisky and has long since been demolished. Its pleasing single malt has never been widely available, though it has been proven to age well as none younger than 25 years of age remains. 

Most closed distilleries have produced for decades, even centuries before their closure. Pittyvaich lived for a mere 18 years, making it one of the most rarely seen single malts of all. This rare, limited release Forager’s Keep 26 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky has lived longer than the distillery from which it came. It is the first of its kind for the Orphan Barrel Whiskey Co. 

Black Art 11 has been created using pre-renaissance casks from Bruichladdich Distillery (pre-2001) which have been safeguarded and maturing on Islay for 24 years. Producer Description.

Redbreast 12 Year Old — Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey 750ml

Redbreast is the definitive expression of Irish single pot still whiskey — a style unique to Ireland, made from a mash of both malted and unmalted barley and triple distilled in copper pot stills. Produced at the Midleton Distillery in County Cork and matured for a minimum of 12 years in a combination of ex-Bourbon and Oloroso Sherry casks, Redbreast 12 is the whiskey that put Irish pot still whiskey back on the world map. It is consistently rated among the finest Irish whiskeys ever made, and for good reason: there is simply nothing else quite like it.

The nose is complex and inviting: a rich interplay of spice, dried fruit, toasted wood, and a generous sherry influence that speaks to the quality of the cask selection. On the palate, it is full-flavored and silky smooth — a harmonious balance of spicy, fruity, sherry, and toasted notes that unfold with remarkable depth and elegance. The finish is satisfyingly long, with the complex flavors lingering on the palate long after the last sip. This is a whiskey to savor slowly, neat or with a single drop of water to open it up.

Highland Park 12 Year Old — Orkney Islands, Scotland

Highland Park is one of Scotland's most celebrated and distinctive single malt distilleries — located on the remote Orkney Islands at the very northern tip of Scotland, where the wild Atlantic climate, ancient Viking heritage, and unique local heather peat combine to create a whisky unlike any other. Founded in 1798, Highland Park is one of Scotland's oldest distilleries and one of the few remaining to still malt a portion of its own barley over Orcadian peat — a practice that gives the whisky its signature balance of honeyed sweetness and gentle, aromatic smoke. The 12 Year Old is the distillery's flagship expression: aged in a combination of sherry-seasoned European and American oak casks, it is regularly celebrated in spirits competitions worldwide for its uncompromising quality and exquisite balance.

The color is warm amber. The nose is vivid and inviting: crème brûlée, tangerine, charred peach, and smoked kindling, with a light, briny vanilla character and a rising veil of smoke. On the palate, heather honey, dried fruit, warm spice, and salty sea smoke intertwine with silky, elegant texture. The finish is sultry and long — brown sugar and toasted nuts with a lingering hint of smoke. A whisky of rare harmony and completeness.

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.

The Dalmore Port Wood Reserve starts its journey in the finest American white oak ex-bourbon casks. The precious liquid is then split equally with half of the whisky remaining in the American white oak and the remainder transferred to aged Tawny Port pipes from W & J Graham’s vineyard in Portugal. They are then married back together to harmonize the flavors before bottling. Purposefully retained at 46.5% ABV to complement the enticing warm flavors of the Port and the classic taste of The Dalmore creating a whisky which is indulgent, smooth and complex.

Aromas of sweet red berries, Seville oranges, plummy fruits and sticky toffee pudding. Nectarines, creamy caramel, roasted chestnuts and Java coffee on the palate. Finishing notes of rich plums, sultanas, Sanguinello blood oranges and macerated cherries.

Producer Description 

Orchard fruit notes are common to both Calvados and Scotch malt whisky. Many Calvados producers double-distil in pot stills, just like their Scottish cousins. Maturation in French oak is another aspect of their shared DNA.

These two spirits share richness, sweetness and complexity; the Calvados lends an intensity and length to the finish which enhances the character of the Scotch whiskies.

Serve over ice, mix with amari and vermouth into a unique twist on a boulevardier, or pair with a deliciously sweet tarte tatin. 

We think you’ll agree that these two spirits really do have an affinity for one another.
