Glenmorangie 15 Years
Rich and grapey Glenmorangie with lots of fruit and vanilla. Highly rated by Dave Broom.
Laphroaig 15 YO
The distillers describe this whisky as “Mildly smoky, with sweet, warm undertones — and just a hint of the sea.” Always bottled in limited quantities and replaced by the 18 year old in March 2009. Faintly salty. Laphroaig 15yo is…

Nose: Outwardly flattish, but time and patience reveals life beyond the sherry — hints of cherry and oak.
Palate: Mouth-filling and chewy. Lots of cream…
Glengoyne 17 Years
A very highly rated whisky, coming top of the pops in a number of expert blind tastings in the past. At 17 years old the whisky has benefited from greater exposure to the cask and the mature characteristics that this…
Caol Ila 18 Years
Extra ageing has calmed the impact of the phenols, with the peat arriving on the palate late, and tempered by smooth oak. A very mellow, mature Islay malt.
