History Of The Glass:
Champagne, Brandy, Wine… each has its own glass. Yet whisky, the worlds most complex spirit can be found served in anything from hiball tumblers to Paris goblets.
In 2001 Glencairn Crystal solved the problem of identifying the ideal glass for whisky. Designed by Raymond Davidson nearly 25 years earlier, its development involved pulling together the master blenders from the five largest whisky companies and asking them to perfect his initial design.

Back for a fifth batch, it’s the much-adored single cask edition of Wormtub 12 Year Old single malt! This Speysider finished its maturation in a single first-fill oloroso sherry hogshead before it was bottled at cask strength, a robust 58.2% ABV. Worm tubs are a classic bit of distilling kit that can achieve distinctly characterful, heavy, robust flavour profiles. To ensure that remains the case here, this whisky has not undergone any chill-filtration and has no added colour, the vibrant hue you see here is all thanks to that glorious sherry cask!
Wormtub 10 Year Old
Fans of Wormtub whisky will be pleased to see another batch of its splendid 10-year-old single malt here! As with previous batches, Batch 5 of this spectacular Speysider is aged for 10 years, during which time, the whisky was reracked into a host of first-fill sherry casks to complete its maturation. What came out of those casks is the magnificently richly hued single malt you see before you, it was bottled without chill filtration or added colour at a bold 56.1% ABV. You read that correctly by the way, no added colour – that impressive hue is all from the cask!
The whisky is sourced from an undisclosed Speyside distillery that still uses a rather old-school (and rather brilliant) bit of kit – a worm tub condenser. These classic bits of distilling equipment are made up of long copper coiled tubes housed in cold water in a large vat. You don’t see too many of them around these days, with many distilleries having replaced them with more efficient shell and tube condensers. More efficient perhaps, but what is lost is the distinctive heavy, robust flavour profiles that can be achieved with a worm tub, and that are adored by distillers and whisky enthusiasts alike.
Seaweed & Aeons & Digging & Fire & Cask Strength 10 Year Old (Batch 08) Whisky (70cl, 56.3%)
After batches one, and two, and three, and four, and five, and sixth and seven it’s time for eight batch of the superbly delicious Seaweed & Aeons & Digging & Fire & Cask Strength 10 Year Old! Hailing from an undisclosed Islay distillery, 25% of this single malt enjoyed a stay in sherry casks, imparting a satisfying sweetness to the robustly smoky, earthy whisky. Weighing in at 56.3% ABV, there’s plenty of added depth and intensity to be found in this full-bodied cask strength expression… you might like to punctuate with a dash of water or a cube of ice to open up all that flavour.
The Story…
Visit to the Jack Daniel’s Distillery: Selecting and Bottling Our Own Whiskey.
During a visit to the Jack Daniel’s Distillery in Lynchburg, Tennessee, I had the incredible opportunity to choose and bottle my own whiskey straight from the barrel.
After a guided tour that showcased the whiskey-making process, from fermentation to charcoal mellowing, the real highlight came when I had the chance to hand-select my own barrel of Jack Daniel’s whiskey and bottle it.
I was presented with a selection of barrels, each offering a unique flavor profile due to its aging conditions.
Guided by the master distiller, I sampled several barrels, each with its own distinct character—one sweet and smooth, another spicier with deeper flavors.
After careful consideration, I found the perfect barrel: a balanced whiskey with rich caramel and oak notes, followed by a long, smooth finish.
The master distiller guided me through the tasting process, explaining how to properly nose the whiskey and what notes to look for when sipping. One barrel had a rich caramel aroma with hints of vanilla and oak on the palate, while another had a spicier edge with deep undertones of toasted nuts and fruit.
After sampling several, I was drawn to one particular barrel that had the perfect balance of sweetness and spice, with a long, smooth finish. This barrel stood out to me as the best of the selection, offering a complexity that I knew would make for an outstanding bottle of Jack Daniel’s. The barrel’s location in the warehouse can dramatically affect its flavor profile. Some barrels are placed higher, where temperature fluctuations are more extreme, while others rest lower, aging in a more stable environment. These differences in maturation result in subtle variations in flavor, even though the whiskey all starts as the same spirit.
The experience was an unforgettable dive into the craftsmanship behind Jack Daniel’s, giving me a new appreciation for the art of whiskey-making.
So, if you find yourself in Tennessee and are a fan of fine whiskey, make sure to stop by the Jack Daniel’s Distillery. You might just find your perfect barrel, too!
Jack Daniel’s at its most intense. This bottling had previously been a United States exclusive.
Described by the distillery as “whiskey as nature intended it”, this bottling weighs in at a mighty barrel proof of 62.5% ABV. The whiskey is made with a mashbill of 80% corn, 12% rye and 8% malted barley.

This right here is a 10-year-old single malt from an undisclosed distillery on Islay, with 25% of it having been finished in first-fill oloroso sherry casks, and bestowed the decidedly descriptive name Seaweed & Aeons & Digging & Fire. If those four words (and three ampersands) aren’t quite enough of an explanation of what this expression is all about, here are a few more: stripped-back, smoky, complex, a bit sherried, balanced, coastal. Yeah, that should do it. Great for people who love uncompromising Islay whisky and sans-serif fonts.

The Macallan Quest might sound like some sort of epic journey to throw an evil chime hoop into a massive sherry cask, but it’s actually a Travel Retail bottling of Macallan single malt drawn from four varieties of cask – bourbon casks, sherry-seasoned European oak casks, sherry-seasoned American oak casks, and hogsheads. The name is a reference to the lengths taken by the Macallan team to source the best oak to mature whisky in.

Peat and sherry is a great combo, though sometimes it can be a bit like a shouting match between a foghorn and a washing machine full of pots and pans. Thankfully, this one shows off a welcome harmony between the two. It’s a marvellous variation of Seaweed & Aeons & Digging & Fire, featuring the same smoky 10 year old Islay single malt, though instead of just 25% of it being finished in sherry casks, the entirety of the whisky was finished in them. The powerfully peaty notes at its core are mellowed by just enough sherry sweetness, making for a superbly well-balanced flavour profile.
You can always trust That Boutique-y Whisky Company to bottle up some brilliant whisky – the indie bottler has been at it for over a decade, releasing some truly superb single casks, small batches, limited editions. This Canadian corn whisky is no exception, except for the “limited edition” bit, because this one forms part of the Boutique-y Whisky core range… all in proper, grown up, 70cl bottles!

An Oa is named after the Mull of Oa in the south west of Islay, which offers the Kildaton coast (where Ardbeg distillery is situated) some protection from the worst the Atlantic has to offer! As such, An Oa is intended to show a more approachable side to Ardbeg single malt that’s as rounded as the Oa peninsular, without losing the characteristic distillery style. In the summer of 2017 this became the first addition to Ardbeg’s core range in over a decade.
Maturation took place in a combination of casks including Pedro Ximénez, charred virgin oak and ex-bourbon, which were all brought together to marry in Dr. Bill Lumsden’s new ‘Gathering Vat’!

This Peaty Whisky Advent Calendar from Drinks by the Dram contains 24 of the finest smoky whiskies that money can buy and showcases peated whisky from around the world – not just Scotland.
A roaring fire paired with a warming Whisky is a rite of passage during the colder months, and peated Whiskies embody this sentiment perfectly. But being sourced from different locations, not all peat imparts the same flavours. From powerful peat monsters packing in plenty of medicinal, earthy notes, to lightly smoked sippers with just a whisper of those flavours, this calendar is just the place to learn all about the magic of peat.

A blend of whiskies from around the world, created by That Boutique-y Whisky Company, this blend includes whisky from Scotland, Canada, Ireland, Sweden, USA, Switzerland, Netherlands, Taiwan, India, Italy, Germany, France, Japan and Finland.
Planet Earth. It’s rather good, isn’t it? Not only is it a habitable sphere floating around in a generally uninhabitable void, it’s also got whisky. Whisky is made all over the shop, and enjoyed in a plethora of ways – which has inspired That Boutique-y Whisky Company to create the World Whisky Blend! Just like the bottle says, it’s “a blend of incredible whiskies from planet Earth”, and perfect for mixing. So whether you enjoy your whisky with cola, ginger ale, soda water, tonic, coconut water or even green tea, this’ll be more than suitable. It’s also marvellous served neat, if you’re not a fan of mixing whisky…
‘That Boutique-y Whisky Company’ bottles single malts, single grains and bourbons from a variety of renowned distilleries as well as producing award-winning blended malts and blends. These whiskies are adorned with cultish graphic novel-style labels.
It’s not a flavour combination that jumps to mind right away, but strawberries and balsamic vinegar is an absolutely astounding pairing that we don’t think gets nearly enough love. That Boutique-y Gin Company clearly agree and have proffered their own way to put the flavour combo in front of everybody’s eyes – by making Strawberry & Balsamico Gin! They have used a classically-styled base gin and given it the addition of fresh strawberries, strawberry and black pepper distillates and Aceto di Balsamico tradizionale di Modena DOP, which is aged between 12 and 25 years in casks made from chestnut, cherry, oak, mulberry, ash and juniper.
Neroli Oil is extracted from the blossom of the bitter orange tree through steam-distillation, and is as awesome as it is pricey, requiring over a tonne of flowers to produce just 1kg of oil – so of course we wanted to make a gin out of it!
Every gram of the botanicals used to make this gin was sent into near-space (over 24km) and exposed to an air pressure of less than 1/100th of that at sea level! That’s seriously low. In fact, if you were to find yourself above just 18km, also known as Armstong’s limit (where the pressure has already dropped to around 6.3 kPa or 1/16th of that at sea level), then the fluids in your body would vaporise!
Juniper, Coriander, Camomile Flowers, Fresh Lemon Peel, Cardamom, Dried Bitter Orange Peel, Cinnamon, Cubeb Pepper, Liquorice Root and Angelica were used. Oh, and Moon Rock. Obviously. Once they returned to earth, we vacuum distilled them at room temperature (at a pressure nearer 1/10th of that at sea level, in case you were wondering) for freshness and elegance.
The cucamelon is a wonderful fruit native to Mexico and Central America that looks like a tiny watermelon but tastes similar to a lime-dipped cucumber. Frankly they seem ridiculous, but cucamelons really do exist – and we made a gin with them!
The 2022 release of Ardbeg 25 Year Old is a smoky single malt with layers of sweetness that was matured in ex-bourbon barrels and bottled in 2021. Aromas of cream, smoke, peppermint, toffee, fennel, pine resin, earthy bonfires and ripe bananas fill the nose, complemented by notes of white pepper, sherbet lemons, candied apples, oranges, pears, tar, carbolic soap, creamy toffee, aniseed, rich smoke and antiseptic throughout the palate.
Bottled from incredibly rare casks filled during some of the Distillery’s darkest days, this is Ardbeg at its most intricate, balanced and beguiling.
Majestic aromas of smoked cream and earthy bonfires are masterfully interwoven with layers of pine and fragrant candle wax. Hot pepper rises on the palate, twisting around lemon sherbet sweetness, while hints of carbolic soap and tar flow into a long aftertaste characterised by delicate aniseed entwined with lingering cream and fudge.
Non chill-filtered with a strength of 46%
Smoke & Dagger is not messing around when it comes to smoke. This one from the Alchemy Series combines older malts with boisterous young smoke bombs, and even features some recognisable names like Bunnahabhain Moine, as well as the heaviest peated malt in the Black Bottle reserves. For an extra layer of smoke, grain whisky was added to casks that previously held a highly-peated island malt.
We have is a very experimental Scotch Whisky. As far as we know, this from Black Bottle is the first to have whisky matured in virgin Andean oak casks as part of its blend. The variety is unique to Colombia and Panamá and is regarded for its ability to thrive at altitudes that others cannot. Andean oak imparts a similar character to American oak, but with more tannins and spice. It was chosen in this case to elevate the creamy, smooth grain whiskies of the blend, by finishing them for seven months in Andean oak casks with various toast and char levels.
Behind each of the 24 windows, you’ll find a different 30ml wax-sealed sample dram of Scotch whisky from a host of top distilleries and producers, spanning a variety of lip-smacking flavour profiles. Old favourites, new discoveries, world-famous releases – all in one snazzy Advent Calendar!

The Gladstone Axe is a blend of Highland malt whiskies, selected from 14 different distilleries and matured in American oak. The label has a portrait of William Gladstone, posing with an axe, because as well as serving four terms as prime minister of the United Kingdom in the 1800s, he apparently had a passion for tree felling!
The Black Axe is a blended malt from The Gladstone Axe, combining whiskies from the Highland and Islay regions of Scotland. There is a portrait of former prime minister of the United Kingdom, William Gladstone on the label, wielding an axe! It is said that in his spare time, he took great pleasure in cutting down trees.
Jack Daniel’s motto was “Everyday we make it, we’ll make it the best we can”. For him, that meant filtering his whiskey drop by drop through a three-meter-thick layer of charcoal from the sugar maple. Seven generations later, the whiskey is still filtered the same way Jack did back then. The reason: Filtering gives it a distinctive mildness that has come to be expected from Jack Daniel’s. Charcoal mellowing makes Jack Daniel’s what it is: not a bourbon, but a Tennessee whiskey. This process refines the full flavor of the whiskey, even before it is fully aged in barrels, of Jack Daniel’s own manufacture. A laborious process that requires special attention and makes the production of the whiskey a little more expensive. However, any other process would not have met with Jack’s approval. Now the Jack Daniels is available packaged in a letterbox. Tasting notes:Jack Daniel’s, the iconic brand with cult status, has been produced in America’s oldest registered distillery since 1866. Jack Daniel’s is enjoyed neat, on the rocks or in a mix. Drop by drop, the brandy seeps through a meter-thick layer of charcoal, which makes its taste unmistakably round, mild and characteristic.
Drumshanbo Gunpowder Irish Gin is an oriental-inspired spirit from The Shed Distillery in Co Leitrim that’s setting the world alight. Taking its name from one of the signature botanicals, slowly dried Gunpowder tea, the recipe also includes lime, lemon and grapefruit. This will work best with a Mediterranean tonic water.
The limited edition ceramic bottle features illustrations that tell the brand’s story inspired by the iconic Willow pattern.
Triple Mash is a Bottled-in-Bond whiskey, which means that it must be distilled by a single distiller during a single distillation season, matured in a government bonded warehouse for at least four years, and bottled at 100 proof (50% ABV). All those regulations are met by every whiskey Jack Daniel’s will launch in its Bonded Series, which kicked off with this beauty as well as its Bonded bottling.

Originally released in France, Sanaig was given a wider release in 2016. Aged in a combination of oloroso-sherry and bourbon casks, this shows excellent balance between peat smoke and sweet citrus flavours.
A traditional 107 Proof that intensifies the flavor and not the heat. Flavor derived from the unique and spicy rye grain with the taste of caramel and dry baking spices. An enticing blend full of sweet, soft layered fruit, with a peppery rye character on the back end to finish.
The Tennessee Travelers series honors Jack’s desire for him and his whiskey to see the world;
how Jack Daniel’s has spread to all four corners of the globe and how we continue to explore the world of tastes found in the whiskey crafted in one place; the Jack Daniel Distillery.
Hand selected by our Master Distiller, this bold & spicy Rye Whiskey is crafted for the adventurous travelers and bottled at 107 proof.
It’s a limited edition 10 Year Old expression of the awesome Black Bottle blend! This time the Islay whiskies that make up the blend have been rested in casks for a decade, and after that time have of course been bottled up in the classic black bottle. A good balance of peat alongside more fragrant and fruity notes in here.
Relaunched in 2013, Black Bottle Blended Scotch whisky now features a balanced mix of fruitiness and spice alongside the peaty Islay notes that the brand has been known for. This change in direction is a return to Black Bottle’s past, as it is said to have been inspired by what the whisky was like when it was made all the way back in 1879. This has also inspired the new old-style black glass bottle, which gave the whisky its name.
One of two initial releases in the Black Bottle Alchemy Series, Double Cask brings together malt whiskies finished in Spanish sherry casks with grain whisky aged in red wine casks. Boasting heavy red fruit influence, though well balanced by subtle whiffs of toasted sugar and savoury nuts, this should make for a great late evening dram. A great start to the Black Bottle Alchemy Series, alongside the Island Smoke expression.
In early 2021, Black Bottle kicked off its Alchemy Series with two tasty whiskies, including this blended Scotch whisky titled Island Smoke (as well as the Double Cask expression)! As you might be able to infer from the name, this is a rather smoky dram – definitely one for the peat fans out there! It offers up whiffs of coastal air, scorched oak, seaweed and more, alongside familiar vanilla-rich sweetness and flashes of spice.
And on it goes with the Bond House No. 1 Collection, in which exclusive vintages are released: Following the Glenmorangie Grand Vintage 1996, the sixth edition, the Glenmorangie Grand Vintage 1997 now was presented.
The basis for the 23-year-old Highland Single Malt is whisky, which was initially matured for 10 years in ex-Bourbon casks before spending the next 13 years in ex-red wine barrels from Château Montrose from the appellation Saint-Estèphe, Bordeaux. During this time it developed extraordinary dark berry fruit flavors, as the latest press release from Moet Hennessy reports.
The vintage bottling was rounded off by the combination with whisky, which was matured exclusively in ex-Bourbon casks, and with whisky from ex-Oloroso sherry casks. And we read as well about “further, secret casks” …
Dr. Bill Lumsden, Director of Whisky Creation at Glenmorangie, comments on this seventh edition of the Bond House No. 1 Collection: “The Glenmorangie Grand Vintage 1997 is dramatically different: lively with aromas of red berries, seductive spice, melting marzipan and floral notes. Inspired by my dream of expressive single malts and in the spirit of the kaleidoscopic style of Glenmorangie.”
The Macallan Sherry Oak 12 Years Old forms part of our Sherry Oak range which features a series of single malt whiskies matured exclusively in hand-picked sherry seasoned oak casks from Jerez for richness and complexity. A matured character, the 12 Years Old delivers rich wood spice and dried fruits and a natural rich gold colour.
The classic sherry matured 12-Year-Old from Macallan has been through several facelifts over the years. After a relatively short hiatus in production to make way for the 1824 series (Gold, Amber, Sienna & Ruby), it made a comeback in 2018, with updated packaging to differentiate it from its Fine Oak and Double Cask brethren.
A warm and spicy single malt from Glenmorangie that embodies all of the comfort of a Christmas jumper. Matured for 13 years and finished in Marsala wine casks from Sicily, this whisky offers aromas of orange toffee, lavender honey, rose petals and overripe fruits that fill the nose. The palate offers notes of cocoa powder, red pepper, brazil nuts, toffee, white pepper spice, sweet malt, ginger and cinnamon that linger in the finish.

The sixth and final release in the The Macallan Edition series, Edition No. 6 takes its inspiration from the natural wonders of the legendary River Spey and The Macallan Estate, where each and every cask of The Macallan is matured before being hand-selected for use by our expert whisky makers.
All of the five distinct casks types used to create Edition No. 6 have been hand-picked by The Macallan Whisky Maker Steven Bremner. He drew inspiration from unique stories related to the river and surrounding landscape. The American and European oak casks have been selected to create a flavour profile that will deliver a multifaceted experience; from the appealing rich brass natural colour, to the layers of aroma, followed by the deep and rewarding flavour.
The legendary River Spey flows through the Estate and is globally renowned as a home to the mighty Atlantic salmon. The Macallan Ghillie is a custodian of the River Spey and advocate for sustaining the wildlife in and around it. On our one-and-three-quarter mile stretch of river, a fortunate few can test their skills in the hope of catching – and releasing – wild Atlantic salmon using Hardy’s incomparable tackle.
Wild Atlantic salmon are at risk of becoming an endangered species. Therefore The Macallan are working with the Atlantic Salmon Trust to help raise awareness of this, and to support vital conservation work on the River Spey and beyond.
