A Special Limited Edition Bottling from Jack Daniel's. In 1904, Mr Jack Daniel loaded some of his best whiskey and travelled to St. Louis to compete at the world's fair! There he would mingle with the world's most famous distillers! After numerous rounds and whiskies eliminated from the competition, an English Judge named Henry Hoctor stepped forward and proclaimed "Gentleman, the Gold Medal for the world's finest whiskey goes to Jack Daniel Distillery, Lynchburg not Virginia, but Lynchburg, Tennessee". In honour of this event, he designed a uniquely shaped bottle, filled it with his award-winning whiskey and gave it to the many people who were responsible for making his whiskey. He called the special bottle his Gold Medal Bottle. In the early 1970s, we released a replica of Mr Jack Daniel's special Gold Medal Bottle in the original half gallon size, which has become quite the collector's item. Celebrating Jack Daniel's 100th anniversary of winning the gold medal they re-released this special bottle which symbolizes an important event in history.

One of the oldest operating distilleries in Scotland – and its most easterly – Glen Garioch (pronounced Geery in the ancient Doric dialect still spoken in these parts) has been making its mighty malt in the quaint and historic market town of Oldmeldrum, near Aberdeen in North East Scotland, ever since 1797. Shielded from the world’s prying eyes, deep in the fertile ‘Granary of Aberdeenshire’, and only ever produced in small, precious batches, Glen Garioch is a rare find indeed, but warmly appreciated by those who like a hearty Highland malt, non chill-filtered as nature intended, with a wholesome maltiness, honeyed sweetness and delicious creamy texture to savour.

Kurayoshi the foothills of Mt. Daisen, here has a fine water that is indispensable for whisky distilling. Kurayoshi, called that "Life is good" is the origin of the word, but the annual temperature range in the Sea of Japan side is large, and the aging of whisky also advances quickly compared to the actual situation like Islay Island. It is no exaggeration to say that whiskey is made by barrel and the nature. Our distillery is not big, we have a small number of staff, however, we will continue to strive all the staff with the desire to deliver the best whisky.

The French Collection exhibits the unique influence imparted by different types of French Wine & Spirits casks in an exceptional showcase.

Matured in mountain oak casks and bottled in 2003, the "Traditional" refers to "malt whisky in its original and most natural form", straight from the wood. Bottled at a high ABV of 57.2%, the "bouquet is robust but distinctly Glenmorangie.

Established as a grocery business in 1895 in the heart of Scotland’s Speyside region, they originally curated all manner of groceries from around the world such as teas, coffees, wines and whisky.

Hugely popular in times gone by, the days of the Scotch ceramic whisky decanter would seem to have passed. Nonetheless, certain of these decanters have remained extremely valuable due to their rarity and/or the quality of the whisky within, including the now-discontinued Bell's Decanters series.  Here is a fine example: Glenfiddich 18 Year Old Ancient Reserve Black Ceramic Decanter A bottle of Glenfiddich 18 Year Old presented in a black ceramic decanter by English pottery company, Spode.

Bruichladdich Black Art 9.1 is a unique 'Single Malt Whisky' from Scotland. The whiskey was distilled in 1992 and bottled after 29 years. The distiller's enigmatic arts are shrouded in the well-known black case. There are dark secrets within that give insufficient indication of the passage of time. High art, complex and mysterious is only revealed to those who see stars. Only 12,000 bottles were produced, each individually numbered. The Black Art series is shrouded in mystery, the lack of information a hallmark. The aged casks are kept a secret guarded by head distiller Adam Hannett - in fact no one but him knows the exact types of casks. This expression is the ninth in the series and the fifth by Hannett. Known as the most experimental and adventurous of the Scottish distilleries, the modern Bruichladdich Distillery implements revolutionary, modern interpretations of time-honored ideas and challenges the comfortable conventions of a whiskey establishment. Bruichladdich's chief distiller, Adam Hannett, rejects the beginnings of modern automation and homogenization and considers only production methods that put the quality of liquid above all else.  

There’s a lot to explore in Berry Bros & Rudd Own Selection whisky range, with wonderful expressions from the highlands, the islands and beyond. Nobody knows these whiskies better than their Spirits Buyer, Rob Whitehead. Here are our favourites from the range.

Why 17 March? The date marks the saint's death. Patrick died in 461 in Saul, County Down. He is buried in the grounds of Down Cathedral in Downpatrick, County Down. When was the first parade? The first St Patrick’s Day parade actually took place in Boston in the United States in 1737. Ireland's first parade was held in Waterford in 1903. Was St Patrick Irish? No, he wasn't born here. St Patrick was thought to have originally come from either Wales or Scotland. Why do people wear green? Green is a color now synonymous with St Patrick’s Day and Irish pride but until the 19th century, the color associated with St Patrick was actually blue. Why is St Patrick associated with shamrocks? According to legend, St Patrick used the shamrock as a metaphor for the Holy Trinity when he first introduced Christianity to Ireland.

Glenfiddich Grande Couronne 26 Years is a limited and quite unique Single Malt Whisky. Glenfiddich 26 y Grande Couronne is a masterful whiskey for lovers of luxury single malt in general and of course fans of Glenfiddich whiskey in particular. The Grand Couronne has been developed to toast the good moments in life. Pure craftsmanship of the highest order and thanks to Glenfiddich aged 26 years. The basis of the character of the Glenfiddich Grande Couronne is laid by a very long maturation in American and European oak barrels, followed by a 2-year finish in ex-cognac casks (presumably Remy Martin). Aromatic and lively in scent with nice aromas of sweets and toasted oak. Silky smooth flavors immediately stand out on the palate. Sweets, notes of café crème, brown sugar and a hint of spices complement each other and lead to a long, sweet aftertaste in which oak influences can also be found. Glenfiddich Grande Couronne is presented in a beautiful box that rotates and presents the bottle in a beautiful way.  

The heavily peated malt for this new dram has been created from harvests brought home from three Islay farms, by Raymond and his farming colleagues Neil Mclellan and Raymond Fletcher. The resulting rich, aromatic Port Charlotte wash was trickle distilled in our Victorian stillhouse during 2011. Moving forward we now have 19 farmers who have made the commitment to grow for us and to whom we are equally committed. This Islay barley is who we are. This is where we’re from. Nose – A whirlwind of vibrant aromas burst from the glass, an earthy tarred peat smoke announces this is Port Charlotte. lemon, peach and green grapes come from the spirit. Vanilla pods, creamed coconut and chocolate speak of the American oak maturation. The combinations of aromas intertwine and jostle for attention. some time to open allows notes of lemon drizzle cake, white chocolate and peach yoghurt to rise wrapped in a velvet blanket of light smoke. Palate – Hints of salt reinforce the coastal feel. Dry smoke, salted caramel and apple sauce. Then lemon drops, boiled sweets and ground white pepper. The smoke is light on the palate, tar and charcoal rather than medicinal phenols. Towards the finish and the light gentle spirit has an edge of floral sea breeze, marine and refreshing. The sweetness of the oak and the barley are matched beautifully by the dry peat smoke. Islay grown, the barley seems more distinct and brings through the peach and apple typical of our spirit. Finish – Tar and brine, peat smoke and salt, coconut and tobacco. Close your eyes and the smoke takes you to an Islay beach with a driftwood bonfire.

The Maxwell House Decanter was considered one of the most beautiful of its time and oddly enough it was not Jack Daniel who was responsible for designing it. That honor instead went to Lem Motlow. The origin of this decanter’s name dates back to the year 1859 when Colonel John Overton Jr. began construction on a new hotel in downtown Nashville, Tennessee. Over the years, the Maxwell House Hotel became a well-known stopping point for famous people passing through the South. Lem Motlow knew of the hotel’s popularity and prestige and saw this as a business opportunity for the Distillery… To commemorate the decanter that Lem Motlow first presented to Colonel Overton, the Distillery released a half gallon replica bottle in 1971.
