Single malt Scotch whisky is one of the most revered spirits in the world. It has such scope for variation, it can offer complexity or simplicity, unbridled power or a subtle whisper. To legally be called a single malt Scotch, the whisky must be distilled at a single distillery in Scotland, in a copper pot still from nothing other than malted barley, yeast and water. It must then be aged in an oak cask for at least three years and a day, and be bottled at no less than 40% abv.

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.
This is the third release from Wolfburn’s Kylver Series – each one features a different from from the runic alphabet found on the Kylver stone (one of the earliest forms of alphabet discovered). Emblazoned upon this bottling is the rune meaning thurs, which meant “thorn” to some, while to others it meant “giant”. This limited edition expression shows off a bourbon-cask-lead flavour profile, with a whisper of Sherry sneaking in later on..
A small batch release from the Wolfburn distillery, showing off their single malt Scotch whisky after a maturation in 100 litre first-fill ex-bourbon casks. The name comes from where these little rascals were matured: warehouse 1, stow 28. Batch No.128 is a release of 6,000 bottles.
A late 2016 release from the Wolfburn distillery, matured in a combination of casks – 40% of this whisky was aged in second-fill quarter casks, 40% in first-fill ex-bourbon barrels and 20% in first-fill Oloroso Sherry hogsheads. An exciting release from the distillery.

This is a delicious whisky from Tullibardine, released in 2013. It sees the Highland whisky finished for 12 months in 228-litre Red Burgundy wine casks from Chateau de Chassagne Montrachet.
Distilled at Tullibardine in the Highlands, this is a very tasty new whisky which was finished in a 225 litre cask (thus the name) which previously held maturing Sauternes dessert wine from Chateau Suduiraut. The result is a golden-coloured single malt with a deliciously creamy, fruity flavour.
We assume that this new no-age-statement peated Tomintoul must be similar to the Old Ballantruan but at a reduced strength. Either way, at this price it must be worth a punt for peatheads.
Pronounced ‘Tlah’, Tlàth means gentle and/or mellow. With Tomintoul known as ‘the gentle dram’, this particular expression is along the same easy-going Speysider lines and is matured in American oak ex-bourbon barrels.
A limited-edition single malt from Tomintoul, Seiridh was matured in American oak ex-bourbon casks before being finished in first-fill oloroso sherry casks from Andalucia, Spain. Rich aromas of sultana, butterscotch and candied pecans fill the nose. The palate offers notes of sweet dried figs, Christmas cake and cedar spice, developing hints of chocolate-covered raisins, dried fruit and liquorice that linger in the finish.

Coming in at an impressive 50% and one of only 5230 bottles, this is definitely one for fans of Speyside whisky.

This 25 year old Tomintoul single malt Scotch whisky was introduced to the distillery’s range in the first half of 2015. An exciting release for Tomintoul, a distillery which has resided in Speyside since 1964 and has gained a reputation for producing laid-back, mellow whiskies – hence their tagline as ‘The Gentle Dram’.
Tomintoul 18 Year Old was created to celebrate the natural beauty of the Cairngorms National Park, where the distillery is based. The scenery on the packaging is Loch A’An, the source of the river A’An which flows past the distillery. This gift pack comes complete with two branded glasses, for sharing the gentle dram.

This is the 16 year old single malt Scotch whisky from the Tomintoul distillery, matured in selected bourbon casks. It was crafted by fourth generation distiller, Robert Fleming. Rather elegant and flavoursome, this one.

A 2006 Tomintoul single malt that was initally matured in ex-bourbon casks and finished in ex-Port pipes, before being bottled at 15-years-old. Aromas of brambles, red cherry, toasted brioche and amoretti biscuits fill the nose, complemented by notes of cherry Bakewell, dark fruits, marzipan, clove and pink peppercorn throughout the palate.
A white Port, and of whisky obviously, but it’s not too often that the two meet, so this rare occasion is most welcome! Distilled at Tomintoul in 2008, this 14-year-old single-malt Scotch was finished in white Port casks, imparting delicious sweet, vinous notes to the elegant malt at its core.
This 14 year old has been bottled at a higher strength to previous Tomintoul releases. This has helped bring out more of the flavour, and the character of the dram.
A gentle 12 year old from the Tomintoul distillery. This was matured in Oloroso sherry casks.

The Tomatin Five Virtues series is a quintet of whiskies built around five elements that contribute to whisky production – Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water. This edition is their Water expression, which was drawn from a combination of sherry butts and second-fill ex-bourbon barrels.
The Five Virtues series from Tomatin explores the five elements surrounding whisky distillation – Fire, Water, Earth, Wood and Metal. That last one is the expression we’re looking at here.

A limited-edition 2008 Tomatin single malt from the distillery’s French Collection that has been finished in Sauternes wine casks. Aromas of peach, apricot and rich Manuka honey fill the nose, complemented by notes of coconut, ginger and peaches in syrup throughout the palate.
A limited-edition 2008 Tomatin single malt from the distillery’s French Collection that was finished in Rivesaltes wine casks. Aromas of toasted hazelnuts, sweet barley and soft fruits that fill the nose and are echoed throughout the palate.
This is the fourth and final release in Tomatin’s French Collection is this cracking Cognac cask finished expression! Like the rest of the range (which includes Sauternes, Rivesaltes, and Monbazillac cask finished whiskies), this is a 12 year old single malt distilled in 2008. However, as we alluded to earlier, this one has enjoyed a finishing period in Cognac casks. This has imparted lip-smacking helpings of red fruit, toasted nut, and festive spice notes. It’s also rather fascination to compare the four releases in the series to see the impact the different French drinks have had on the great Scotch whisky at their cores.
15 year old single malt from the Tomatin distillery, which have been treated to a generous five-year-long finishing period in casks that previously held Portuguese Moscatel wine. Not a particularly common type of cask for whisky maturation, but one that imparts hefty notes of dried fruit and toasted nuts – sounds excellent to us!

The Whiskymaker’s Editions is a series of one-off releases showcasing the sense of adventure of our whiskymaker.
Each Edition is an exceptional diversion from The Lakes sherry-led house style; an expression of creative freedom, the product of a playground where instinct, experience and inspiration roam free.
With a core of cream sherry seasoned casks and additional character from red wine barriques, Resfeber bottles the excitement and energy at the outset of a journey, the restless race of the traveller’s heart before setting off. We’re venturing into less-explored sherry cask territory – vibrant and complex, creamy yet tart, with aromas of apple dipped in toffee treacle, gentle baking spices, notes of Maraschino cherry and rose petal preserve and a warming finish.
We’re on a path to enlightenment, energised by novel discoveries, fuelled by the exhilaration of progress and our collective desire for adventure.
The Lakes Whiskymaker’s Reserve series concludes (a real shame it’s ending) with another sherry-tastic release that proves English whisky can compete with the best. For No.7, it’s a blend of oloroso, PX, and red wine casks, comprising Spanish and American oak, that was bottled at 52% ABV non-chill filtered, with natural colour.
As vibrant as a Greek town; the air rich with spices and sultanas, treacle and cocoa. Let its warm perfume lead you through sun-baked avenues to white-washed kafenions and tucked-away tavernas.
A harmonious balance of dry and sweet, bright and elegant, woody and light. Feel the warm, lightly spiced finishing notes linger as the peak of the moment fades. May Kairos remind you to seize and savour every precious opportunity that comes your way.

A lovely sherried Tamnavulin originally released for the Travel Retail market, the Speysider was initially matured in American oak barrels. Before it was bottled, the single malt was treated to a finish in casks which previously held Tempranillo red wine, imparting a brilliant colour as well as berry-forward flavour profile.
This Speyside single malt has been matured in a combination of American oak casks and a variety of sherry casks. This is a fruity, rich whisky with aromas of raisins, orange and vanilla. The palate offers notes of dried fruits, warm spices and rich caramel.
Single malt Scotch from the Tamnavulin Red Wine Cask Edition range. Matured in American oak, Edition No.2 has then been finished in casks that previously held Spanish grenache, for some juicy red berry and mellow spice notes.
Tamnavulin, showing off the distillery’s skills at using interesting cask finishes for its fab single malt Scotch whisky. This time, it’s red wine! The whisky is initially aged in American oak barrels, but before it gets bottled, it enjoys a stay in French Cabernet Sauvignon wine casks, imparting a whole heap of warming dark fruit and sweet spice notes. We reckon this will make for an ace autumnal dram.
Tamnavulin Double Cask was the first release from the distillery since the 1990s! Over the past 20 or so years, the distillery changed hands from Invergordon Distillers to Whyte & MacKay, closed a few years later and reopened in 2007. Much of its single malt output is used in blends, but a few casks of single malt would sneak out as indie bottlings to allow us a rare taste of Tamnavulin – but now they’ve got their very own expression! They initially mature it in American oak barrels before treating them to a finishing period in Sherry casks.
Behold, a 39 year old single malt from Tamnavulin, a distillery that we really don’t hear enough from, we reckon. This one was distilled all the way back in 1979 and matured in a combination of bourbon and matusalem oloroso sherry casks before being bottled in 2019. A stunning release from the Vintages Collection series.

This single malt from Strathisla joins the Darkness collection. Matured for 15 years, the whisky finished up in a Pedro Ximénez sherry octave, custom-made for the indie bottler. It’s a decadent sipper, with generous helpings of dark fruits and chocolate, coffee, and spice.
This German single malt from the St. Kilian distillery makes an interesting addition to That Boutique-y Whisky Company’s World of Smoke series. The malt was smoked with beech wood during the kilning process, and the whisky matured for five years in a cask that previously held cherry wine.
Batch 6 is a release of 542 bottles.
Gordon & MacPhail’s Private collection range contains exceptionally mature whiskies from silent distilleries and this St Magdalene is no exception. Spending 40 years in a refill American hogshead has left this whisky with aromas of pomander, orchard fruit and cocoa powder on the nose, leading to poached pear, walnut and marzipan on the palate.
St Magdalene A legendary lost distillery, also known as Linlithgow, closed in 1983.
Also known as Linlithgow, this lost Lowlands distillery was built in the mid-18th century by Sebastian Henderson and operated for well over 200 years before being closed in the great cull of 1983.
It had passed to A & J Dawson in 1798 before being acquired by DCL in 1912. The distillerywas re-equipped in 1927 andhad its own floor maltings until 1968, after which it bought in malt from Glenesk.
Despite a capacity of around 200,000 gallons a year of production, there were no official bottlings during its lifetime, and most malt fans had barely heard of it until a series of stunning Rare Malt bottlings (as St. Magdalene) in the mid-to-late 1990s. It is now one of the most lamented lost distilleries (the buildings have been converted to private housing), and Rare Malt bottlings are hungrily seized upon by aficionados and collectors alike.

This is the second batch of Springbank Vintage 1997. The first batch proved very popular indeed, and when this one was bottled in 2008, it was yet another stunning release from the distillery in Campbeltown. Something must have been happening in 1997… It was the year that Daft Punk released their first album, and the Chemical Brothers released brilliant their second album in 1997 too… Perhaps great electronic music is the the perfect soundtrack for distilling great whisky.
Quite a highly acclaimed Springbank chosen by Frank McHardy, distilled in 1997 and bottled in June 2007 at cask strength.

Those clever clogs over at Darkness got their hands on a sought-after drop of whisky here. This 21-year-old Springbank single malt was given the Darkness treatment with a finish in one of its custom-made octave casks, that previously held oloroso sherry. The coastal malt and sherried sweetness make a perfect partnership.
The 2024 release was matured in a combination of 65% Port, 25% Bourbon, 5% Rum, and 5% Sherry casks.

Another fine malt for a Havana, Springbank 15yo has an almost bewildering array of flavours: dark chocolate, figs, marzipan, brazil nuts and vanilla are just some of the notes on show. Absolutely top-class.

A Springbank produced from 100% organic barley, then matured in nothing but American Bourbon casks.

This Springbank 12 Years Old is nicknamed Green. It is made from naturally farmed barley, but as the distillery itself doesn’t have the right certificates, the resulting whisky can’t officially be called organic. Hence green.
