Whiskeys blended to create BENDT No. 5: Bourbon, Rye, Malt, Wheat & Light Whiskey

Campo Azul Selecto Reposado is a distinguished tequila that showcases the expertise and care put into its creation. This reposado tequila offers a perfect balance of smoothness, flavor, and complexity, making it a delightful choice for discerning tequila enthusiasts.

To craft Campo Azul Selecto Reposado, only the finest blue Weber agave plants are selected. These agaves are harvested at the peak of maturity, ensuring optimal sugar content and flavor. The hearts of the agave are then slow-roasted to unlock their natural sweetness and distinctive characteristics.

Following fermentation, the tequila is aged in oak barrels for a minimum of six months. During this period, the tequila undergoes a transformation, as it absorbs the flavors and nuances of the oak. This careful aging process imparts a refined and balanced flavor profile to Campo Azul Selecto Reposado.

The tasting notes of Campo Azul Selecto Reposado are a testament to its exceptional quality. With each sip, you'll experience a harmonious blend of caramel, vanilla, and toasted agave. The oak aging lends a delightful complexity, introducing subtle hints of spice, chocolate, and dried fruit. These flavors come together in a smooth and velvety texture, creating a truly enjoyable tequila experience.

Campo Azul Selecto Reposado is best enjoyed neat, allowing its nuanced flavors to shine through. The attention to detail in its production, from the selection of premium agave to the meticulous aging process, results in a tequila that embodies the artistry and tradition of Mexican distillation.

Presented in an elegant and distinctive bottle, Campo Azul Selecto Reposado not only delights the palate but also adds a touch of sophistication to any gathering. Whether celebrating a special occasion or simply indulging in a moment of relaxation, Campo Azul Selecto Reposado invites you to savor the craftsmanship and passion that goes into every bottle.

Maker Notes

Since 2015, we’ve been making our Lilac Gin to honor the heritage of our home in Rochester. In 2019, we decided it was time for our second home in Buffalo to get an homage to its roots too. Loganberry has been around since the 1800s and has won over the hearts of Buffalonians in the form of a Loganberry drink. Our gin takes that sweet berry everyone knows and loves and turned it into a gin sure to delight.

What’s a Loganberry you ask? It’s a real thing, we promise. Loganberries are a hybrid made from accidentally crossing a raspberry and a blackberry (so the story goes).

Botanicals

Juniper, Coriander, Angelica Root, Licorice Root, Lemon Peel, Orris Root, Raspberries, Blackberries, Loganberries

Originally filled into ex Bourbon casks in 2001, our Bladnoch 17 Year Old was disgorged and re-filled into red wine casks for vibrant, complex flavours.

The opening of a unique whisky to the world

Elegant, smooth, and easy to enjoy, our whisky enhances the pleasure of relaxing moments spent with friends, family and loved ones. From the curious amateur to the local connoisseur, Hatozaki appeals to everyone in a delightfully welcoming way.

Hatozaki was named after the oldest stone lighthouse in Japan, a symbol of safety and guidance listed as a Historical Monument. With a design strongly inspired by the delicate naturalistic art of the Edo era (1603-1868), Hatozaki also incorporates a deep respect for the whisky of Scotland, the country that pioneered the spirit.

Hatozaki Finest Blended Japanese Whisky is a wise choice for both highballs and straight pours, this product, with a minimum malt whisky content of 40%, has a delicate roundness with a rich backbone of malt whisky, offering cereal notes and a gentle sweetness. Aged for up to 12 years and created through a two-stage blending process, it is never colored or unchill-filtered.

Properties
Unpeated, delicate and floral. It offers a balanced feel in the mouth, with an aromatic palate and floral notes. The style is elegant and light, carrying significant depth from the malted barley.

Rated 90 in Whisky Advocate - Taconic Distillery's Double Barrel Maple Bourbon is the product of a collaboration with Catskill Mountain Sugarhouse. Freshly dumped Bourbon barrels are sent to Catskill Mountain Sugarhouse who fills them with their New York Grade A Organic Maple Syrup. After a few months of aging, the barrel aged maple syrup is bottled and sold. Those same barrels are then immediately refilled with bourbon. After a few months of soaking up the sweetness, the annual release of their Double Barrel Maple Bourbon is produced. 

The initial sweetness lingers with the earthiness of the barrels, resulting in a slightly sweet butteriness which is unmistakable.

Aged a minimum of 5 years at 90 proof.

These casks layer tropical fruit and warm spice on our whisky's classic vanilla notes, culminating in this sweetly approachable dram.

TASTING NOTES

NOSE: Spicy apple and pear, key lime pie and cinnamon sugar.

TASTE: Caramelised tropical fruits, hints of freshly ground pepper and sweet vanilla.
