Maker Notes

Back in 1849 when everyone else was using a rye mashbill, we pioneered wheat-based bourbon. And it’s this award-winning wheated recipe that continues to defy trends today. Rebel Bourbon is unapologetically original and brazenly bold.

Rebel 100 Proof Rye Whiskey may be a straight rye, but there’s nothing ordinary about it. This full-bodied whiskey’s got backbone with a bold rye flavor and solid mix of sweet and spice.

TASTING NOTES

A spicy nose opens up into rich yet unpretentious rye flavor balanced by hints of vanilla that’ll keep you on your toes.   

INGREDIENTS
Rye, corn, and malt

Chardonnay grapes were harvested in late September from two Dutton Russian River Valley Vineyards- Gerboth and Alpers. After hand-sorting, the grapes were whole-cluster pressed to avoid bitter tannins from the skins and grape seeds. The cool, golden-green, free-run juice from the Gerboth vineyard was sent directly to Amphora vessels for fermentation and then aged for 10 months. The Amphora gives the wine more mineral and fruit forward notes. The Alper vineyard was fermented and aged for 10 months in neutral oak barrels.

Ripe apple, white peach and an intriguing mineral, earthy note greet your senses as you smell the wine and lead to flavors of Gala apple, melon, mineral and earth. The wine is incredibly round, full and creamy like a delicious crème brûlée. Finishes with beautifully balanced acidity.

Maker Notes

Our first bourbon whiskey release, this 85 proof whiskey is smooth as silk. Named for the Timber Rattle Snake, the oak shines right to the front of your palette, with an extremely smooth finish.

THE TASTE OF AN ENGLISH COUNTRY GARDEN WITH A TART CRISP EDGE
The essence of rhubarb adds a tart crisp edge to our smooth gin base whilst the ginger extract warms the palate for a full-bodied finish.

Johnny Neill’s gin evokes childhood memories of visiting his grandparents on their farm by taking a firm Whitley Family favourite in rhubarb and placed a warm twist on this with the addition of fresh ginger.

BOTANICALS
Juniper | Coriander Seed | Cassia Bark | Orris Root | Angelica Root | Liquorice | Sweet Orange | Lemon | Ginger | Rhubarb

Whilst most of Johnny Neill’s inspiration for his award-winning gins comes from his ancestor’s intrepid exploits abroad, Whitley Neill Rhubarb & Ginger Gin harks from fond memories made slightly closer to home. Post-war, the Whitley Family, were living in rural England near Daresbury and they cultivated their garden with thrilling flavours, serving as inspiration for both the table and indeed their experimentation with new gins.

Alan Shayne founded Spirit Imports in 1993. An experienced veteran of the spirits industry, Shayne founded The Scotch Malt Whisky Society of America. In the nearly three decades since his daughters Lauren and Gabrielle joined the family business they have built a portfolio of eight brands and dozens of releases. The Classic Cask is a label of distinctive single barrels and strictly limited releases of Single Malt from some of the best distilleries. Each bottle is numbered in series, once a release is gone it is gone forever. This Classic Cask 23 Year Old Port Finish is part of a series of four twenty-three year-old Spirits released in tandem. Each whisky is comprised of single-casks sourced from Speyside, Highland, and Island distilleries each hand selected by Master Blender David Hallgarten of the Glenaden Distilling Company. They were matured in their original casks for a full twenty-three years before being married and divided into quarters for finishing and bottling without chill-filtering. This Port finished release spent an additional six months in first-fill Port pipes.

Old Forester 150th Anniversary Bourbon honours George Garvin Brown’s original process, and represents a collaboration between Master Distiller Chris Morris and Master Taster Jackie Zykan.

Between 6 to 8 years old, this expression consists of 150 barrels chosen specially by Chris, made from wood seasoned 150 days. Jackie then personally tasted and batched all 150 barrels (minus the angels share) into three very distinct flavour profiles and proof points showcasing the taste variations among barrels depending on where they rest in the Old Forester barrelhouses. The bourbon is presented in an amber glass bottle, reminiscent of the hand-blown glass of George’s day and sealed in a commemorative keepsake canister.

"In 1895, Masataka Taketsuru the father of Japanese Whisky was born in the small town of Takehara, Japan. At the time, Masataka's family owned a sake brewery, and in preparing to carry on the family trade, Masataka studied chemistry and biology at Osaka Technical High School. After graduating high school, Masataka showed more interest in whisky than in sake and in 1918, he enrolled at the University of Glasgow in Scotland, becoming the first Japanese ever to study the art of whisky-making. While in Scotland, Masataka took chemistry courses during the day while apprenticing at distilleries at night, learning to distill and blend whisky first-hand at some of Scotland's most prestigious distilleries. In 1920, Masataka returned to Japan, and within the decade, had produced the country's first single malt whisky. In 1934, Masataka moved to the town of Yoichi and opened the doors to Nikka Whisky Co. In 1960, as the Yoichi Distillery was reaching capacity, Masataka began searching for another suitable location in Japan to open a second distillery. Following a three-year search, Masataka found a wide forest valley at the junction of the Hirosegawa and Nikkawagawa rivers. The localized humidity from the rivers and surrounding hills, together with the quality of water from Nikkawagawa River, created the perfect location for a second distillery, which he named Miyagikyo. Nikka's Coffey Gin has an innate complexity achieved through the perfect harmony between 11 selected botanicals and the silky texture of Coffey distillates. The result is a beautiful spirit with bright and zesty aromas originating from four types of Japanese citrus: Yuzu, Kabosu, Amanatsu and Shequasar, complimenting the signature gin botanicals like juniper berries, angelica, coriander, lemon and orange peels. 

A captivating and distinctive gin that showcases the ingenuity and craftsmanship of the Irish distilling tradition. Created in the rural town of Drumshanbo in County Leitrim, Ireland, this gin pays homage to the rich history and botanical treasures of its surroundings.

At the heart of this gin lies a unique selection of botanicals, carefully chosen to create a flavor profile that is both intriguing and harmonious. The name "Gunpowder" is derived from one of its key botanicals, Chinese Gunpowder green tea, which infuses the spirit with its distinct and aromatic character. This exotic ingredient adds a layer of complexity and depth to the gin, setting it apart from traditional gin offerings.

The creation of Drumshanbo Gunpowder Irish Gin begins with the slow and meticulous distillation of the botanicals in medieval copper pot stills. This traditional method allows for the precise extraction of flavors, ensuring the utmost quality and integrity of the gin. The botanicals, including juniper berries, angelica root, orris root, caraway seeds, and many others, are carefully balanced to achieve a harmonious blend of flavors.

Upon tasting, Drumshanbo Gunpowder Irish Gin delights the senses with a distinctive freshness and vibrancy. The prominent notes of citrus, spice, and juniper are beautifully complemented by the herbal and floral undertones, resulting in a well-rounded and balanced gin.

The addition of Gunpowder green tea provides a pleasant and unique twist, contributing a subtle smokiness and a lingering finish that lingers on the palate. This unexpected combination of flavors creates a truly memorable drinking experience, making Drumshanbo Gunpowder Irish Gin stand out among its gin counterparts.

Royal Lochnagar 12 Year House Baratheon is one of eight single malts Scotch whiskies made to commemorate the eighth and final season of Game of Thrones. Set to hit shelves in the fall of 2018, this 12 year-old single malt features the sigil for House Baratheon--a crowned black stag.

Distillery: Royal Lochnagar Distillery

Detailed Description

Royal lineage drives the iconic pairing between House Baratheon and Royal Lochnagar. Similar to Robert Baratheon ruling the Seven Kingdoms upon the Iron Throne, Royal Lochnagar was deemed a whisky worthy of a royal family as it was granted a Royal Warrant after Queen Victoria and Prince Albert visited the distillery in 1848. Balanced with delicate fruits and spices, this taste of royalty is best enjoyed neat. Light notes of oak and sweet liquorice that develops into a rich, creamy vanilla coffee and finishes with a mild nutmeg custard note. These iconic whiskies serve as must-have collectibles for Game of Thrones and whisky adorers.

Distillery Information

Everything about the plant, especially its two small stills and worm tubs, point to this being a classic, heavy 19th century site. Instead, its distilling team work to make it light. The wort from a rake and plough mash tun manages to be clear (which is not easy to achieve). Ferments are long, but it is the way in which the stills and worms are utilised which makes the difference.Distillation is slow to maximise reflux and the stills doors are opened after distillation to allow air in to rejuvenate the copper. Meanwhile, the worm tubs are run warm. All of this maximises copper conversation and produces a new make with the aroma of dry grass, a background of fruit and mid-palate depth. It is this weight which allows the bulk of the make to be aged in ex-Sherry butts.

Founded in 1824 on its site in central Speyside, near Elgin, Miltonduff is one of the many distilleries that illicitly produced spirit before its founding date, and took advantage of the passing of the Excise Act.

Traditionally both ‘Miltonduff’ and ‘Mosstowie’ spirits have been produced here, the latter being a variant of single malt produced between the 60s and 80s primarily for blending. The Mosstowie variant was produced utilising Lomond Stills, which meant many variables during distillation could be manipulated to promote distinct characteristics; the Miltonduff spirit is steadfast in its consistency: light, fresh and elegant.

Miltonduff’s spirit character is typically cereal-led and light, although some floral characteristics often also shine through. A single cask, cask strength and un-chillfiltered expression from Miltonduff Distillery, matured in an ex-Bourbon Hogshead.

Barton 1792 Distillery has launched a new release under the newly introduced Thomas S. Moore brand, which is one of three cask finished releases planned to honor the distillery's founder, Thomas S. More. The Thomas S. Moore Port Finish is labeled as an "Extended Finish," although the exact finishing time is unknown. It offers intense port notes without being overwhelming, making it a good option for fans of this finishing style. However, it does not innovate in terms of the finishing style and still has some rough edges, a feature shared with the standard 1792 Small Batch Bourbon. It is recommended to purchase the bottle at a fair price, but not to overpay for it.
