A fresh and delicate fruit liqueur
The Bitter Truth Apricot Liqueur combines the juice of sun-ripened apricots with an apricot schnapps that was distilled from the same fruit and just the right amount of sugar.

Imagine fresh, plump, dewy, yellow-skinned apricots. This apricot liqueur has a sweet lightness from the juice and a smidgen of almond on the nose. While on the palate, a creamy dried apricot flavor cuts in first, interrupted by the caramel biscotti mid-palate and rounding off with hot stewed apricots once more.

The distinctive fruitiness and reduced sugar content of The Bitter Truth Apricot Liqueur are captivating. It is expressive and indispensable in many classic and modern cocktail recipes. Tantalize your taste buds and mix it with wine or champagne, in a cocktail or over ice, and it’ll be just what the doctor ordered.

Tasting Notes

Sweet and fruity. The aroma of ripe apricots is dominant. In the background, a hint of almond from the apricot pit is noticeable.

ROYAL SALUTE IS THE ONLY SCOTCH WHISKY COLLECTION THAT BEGINS AT 21 YEARS OF AGE

Inspired by a passion for tradition, born as a tribute to a queen, crafted with a desire for perfection. The story of Royal Salute is unlike any other whisky.

In 1953, the young Princess Elizabeth ascended the throne. The occasion called for a tribute fit for a queen and so, in Strathisla, the oldest working distillery in the Scottish Highlands, an exquisite blend was created. It was given the name Royal Salute – after the famous 21-gun-salute – and so began the story of a remarkable whisky.

To this day, Royal Salute has marked each significant event in the lives of the British Monarchy and is unique in having only ever used whiskies aged at least 21 years in its blends. It is this unique commitment to quality and tradition that has given rise to the informal motto, “We Begin Where Others End”.

Behind this drive for perfection lies the true secret to the success of Royal Salute – its legendary vault. Over the decades, the custodians of Strathisla have collected and stored whiskies of immense distinction. Behind locked doors, these liquids lie in wooden casks, ageing, maturing, patiently waiting for the moment they are ready to make magic.

Bottled at 90 proof, this uniquely smooth, small batch rye has a crisp, lively taste that our Master Distillers believe to be the perfect six-year-old rye to enjoy in your Manhattan or over a large ice cube with friends. They have over 101 years of combined whiskey experience, so we tend to believe them.

The palate is greeted with a rich and velvety texture, showcasing flavors of butterscotch, toffee, and honey, alongside subtle notes of cinnamon and nutmeg.

FROM THE CASK

Every Macallan single malt reveals the unrivalled commitment to the mastery of wood and spirit for which The Macallan has been known since it was established in 1824. It is an expression of our enduring desire to go beyond the ordinary, to seek out the extraordinary, and create peerless single malts. Our reputation for the extraordinary is characterised by the exceptional oak casks for which The Macallan is renowned. Sourced, crafted, toasted and seasoned under the watchful eye of the Master of Wood, the hand-picked casks are delivered to the demanding specifications of the Whisky Mastery Team. Once filled, the maturing spirit remains undisturbed in the same casks for the necessary number of years it needs to be worthy of its destined Macallan expression. It is the oak that makes the greatest contribution to the quality, natural colour and distinctive aromas and flavours at the heart of this single malt whisky.

Matured in a unique combination of casks with two distinctive wood types, the Macallan classic cut 2022 single malt exudes flavours of both European and American oak, married together to create a unique tasting experience. With a distinct grapefruit flavour, this whisky emphasises a wide range and complexity of flavours. The two wood types complement and balance together beautifully and offer an experiential journey through flavour, aroma, colour and texture. It reveals flavour notes of grapefruit, peach, caramel and light spice, a refreshing combination for a whisky cocktail to savour in an exceptional sensory revelation.

This first edition of Flóki Single Malt was released in November 2017 when it became the first Icelandic single malt whisky. It is a single barrel whisky, aged for 3 years in ex-Flóki Young Malt barrels under Mount Hekla. With a subtle yet complex flavor this malt takes its own form of traditional whisky experience, exploring new grounds -much like Hrafna Flóki himself. Flóki Single Malt Whisky is handcrafted and produced from 100% locally farmed Icelandic barley.

Maker Notes

At the heart of our recipe is Juniperus Procera, the only species of juniper indigenous to the southern hemisphere. Procera means “tall” in Latin and when you walk through the Procera forest of the Kenya highlands, you understand why straightaway, as you’re dwarfed by these majestic giants. Native to the highlands of Kenya, and growing only above 1500 metres above sea level, this is what makes African juniper so special. Whereas common juniper grows in temperate zones and receives only summer sun for three months a year, our Procera berries receive about seven hours of daily sunlight all year round. Situated at 2200 metres, the Kijabe forest where we harvest our juniper receives even stronger, more direct sun. Hence a richness of flavour and essential oils that only the equatorial sun can provide.

We partner with the Kijabe Forest Trust, an organisation founded to protect the native forests of Kijabe from poaching of both animals and trees. They in turn work with the local communities to collect the Procera berries once they are fully ripe at the end of the short rains around the middle of the year. We know it is time to start harvesting the juniper when the local family of baboons start veraciously devouring them due to their appetising sweetness.

The Procera berries had never been used commercially before we started harvesting them and hence we’ve had to learn everything from scratch. From where the best berries grow, to when to harvest them and how to process them, every step has been a journey of discovery. It is crucial not to let the berries ferment once collected and they must be air dried for about a week before they can be flash frozen to maintain optimal freshness and brightness for distilling throughout the entire year.

By showing the local communities that each tree has a direct monetary value each year, not only are more trees being planted but there is also a reduction in the felling of the old trees. We hope that the world comes to realise that the unparalleled sun and terroir of Kijabe creates a better juniper berry with which to make gin. We dream that in the future, “African Dry Gin” will become a designated category which: must be distilled in Africa; must use African Juniper; must use only botanicals grown on the continent. If this dream were to be realised and there were 10 more Kenyan distilleries, the future of these magnificent juniper forests would not only be assured, but the reforestation of their old habitat across the entire Kenya highlands would become much more probable.

The Whiskey Row Series’ 1924 10 – Year – Old is a limited annual release celebrating another milestone in Old Forester’s storied history.

During Prohibition, more than 200 distilleries were forced to close. Old Forester, however, continued operations because the federal government issued us one of six medicinal licenses, P-3. In 1924, Old Forester acquired barrels from closed distillers, with different mash bills, and bottled that liquid as Old Forester. This release commemorates that moment in time.

TASTING NOTES

AROMA: Soft notes of fudge, cocoa, marzipan, and cured tobacco layered over hints of rich oak and warm cinnamon.

TASTE: Chocolate covered graham cracker dusted with cinnamon.

FINISH: Hints of spice and graham cracker crumbles.

A celebration of Oregon's legendary brewing culture, this whiskey grew out of our longstanding cask-trading tradition among a select group of beer producers in the Northwest. For as long as we've been making whiskey, we've traded our freshly-emptied barrels with some of our brewing friends in and around the Northwest, who have in turn "seasoned" them with Stout before returning them again. Our Stout Cask Finish begins with our Westward American Single Malt, and is then aged for one year in Stout casks.

This straight rye whiskey’s deep and dense aromas of dark chocolate, candied black licorice, and vanilla extract set the stage for robust flavors of raisins, tobacco, cinnamon stick, and sarsaparilla.
