This 17-year-old single malt is truly unusual. For the first time, it has been aged exclusively in American oak Hogshead casks. This gives it a spring-like, fruity, honeyed and sweet character.

Nose: Moist, salty sand with antiseptic notes, a little smoke and peat.

B. Oily, fruity, sweet and salty typical of Caol Ila.

Finish: Short, dry with lingering smoke in the aftertaste.

A rich, smooth and creamy single malt whisky whose dark aromas incorporate Benrinnes' fresh green estery characteristics, typical of Speyside. This pleasantly textured single malt is rich and lush, with meaty, flavorful characteristics.

Mouth: Deliciously sweet, malty, nuts, honey, mild spices and chocolate.

Finish: Soft and slightly dry on chocolate and spices.

Nose: Green apple, grapefruit, honeysuckle and oak.

Mouth: Elegant notes of toasted oak, cigar box, apple and currant.

Nose: Compass Box Asyla reveals fresh aromas of vanilla, honey and cereals, with a subtle touch of tropical fruit.

Feel: On the palate, this blended whisky reveals creamy notes of pear, apple and oak, followed by nuances of honey and sweet spices.

Finish: The finish is smooth and balanced, with lingering notes of vanilla, caramel and ripe fruit.

Nose: Notes of subtly spiced cereals, mango, papaya and pea pods. Traces of hard toffee and light oak chips. A drop of water reveals notes of cinnamon brioche and salted caramel.

Mouth: Silky and fluid with an intense taste of sweet butterscotch, a spicy-dry and woody intensity. The addition of water softens the honeyed sweetness of the creamy, smooth Swiss milk chocolate, with just a hint of salt in the mid-palate. The mild spices now keep the sweetness in check.

Finish: Short and rather intense, with spicy chili pepper notes.

A full-bodied, rich and spicy 12-year-old single malt whisky. Slightly dry on the finish, with an abundance of sherry notes and a hint of herbal menthol. An interesting whisky with an unusual aftertaste.
