The Botanist Islay Dry Gin 22 1.75L

The Botanist

1750 ml | 46% ABV
Gin

The Botanist is a gin of layered complexity, a progressive exploration of the botanical heritage of our isle of Islay. 22 hand-foraged local botanicals delicately augment nine berries, barks, seeds and peels during an achingly slow distillation. The first Islay dry gin is a rare expression of the heart and soul of our remote Scottish Island.

BODY
Satin smooth; it glides across the palate. The viscosity of the liquid is exceptional.

NOSE
Immediately a bouquet of herbal freshness, juniper and sweet citrus come to the fore. Allow a little time to open and the sweet, spicy and earthy notes of cassia and coriander set a base for the delicate complexity of the Islay 22. The scent of Islay botanicals gently rises, winding their wild aromas of mint, thyme, sweet gale, gorse, camomile – a green freshness – through the heart of The Botanist.

TASTE
Rich and mellow, cool on entry then warming across the palate, stimulating the taste buds with a round mouthfeel and citrus freshness. The balance and complexity are distinctive. Sweet and earthy notes combine with the delicate floral and herbal notes of the Islay 22. Each sip reveals deeper layers and more complex combinations of delicate flavours. This complexity and versatility perfectly suit a creative serve of you own.

FINISH
Relaxed and balanced. Water mint, hawthorn, wood sage, sweet cicely, cinnamon, citrus, soft juniper – a harmonious combination held together with a gentle, satin soft texture. The viscosity from an achingly slow distillation brings out the delicate essence of Islay, expressing a different balance of flavour, a different combination of botanicals, upon every taste.

Johnnie Walker Swing Blended Scotch Whisky

Johnnie Walker

750 ml | 40% ABV
Whiskey | Scotch

The history of Johnnie Walker Swing dates back to the early 1930s when Sir Alexander Walker, the grandson of the brand's founder, was inspired by the elegant and rhythmic motion of a swinging golf club. He sought to create a whisky that embodied the same smoothness and flow as a golf swing, leading to the birth of Johnnie Walker Swing.

One of the most distinguishing features of Johnnie Walker Swing is its unique bottle design. The bottle has an ergonomic shape, which allows it to rock back and forth without tipping over. This design was an innovative way to serve whisky on board cruise ships and trains, where the rolling motion could make it challenging to keep conventional bottles steady. The elegant bottle design, combined with the smoothness of the whisky inside, made it a popular choice for travelers and whisky enthusiasts alike.

Johnnie Walker Swing is a blend of carefully selected Scotch whiskies from various distilleries across Scotland. Each component brings its own character and flavor to the final blend. The exact composition of the blend is a closely guarded secret, known only to a select few master blenders at Johnnie Walker.

When it comes to the taste, Johnnie Walker Swing offers a rich and balanced profile. Its smooth and mellow character is complemented by sweet notes of honey, caramel, and vanilla, along with hints of dried fruit and spice. The whisky has a delightful warmth that gently caresses the palate, making it a pleasure to savor.

Since its introduction, Johnnie Walker Swing has earned numerous awards and accolades, solidifying its position as a premium Scotch whisky. It's often enjoyed neat or with a splash of water, allowing its intricate flavors to shine without overwhelming the senses.

As with many other Johnnie Walker expressions, the Swing whisky comes in different variants to cater to various markets and preferences. While the core blend remains consistent, some limited editions or regional releases may offer unique twists on the classic recipe.

Rhum Barbancourt Estate Reserve 15 year Old Rum

Rhum Barbancourt

750 | 43% ABV
Rum

About the Brand

In 1862, Dupré Barbancourt founded a rum distillery in Haiti bearing his name. He applied the traditional French distillation method to sugar cane juice and the aging process in oak barrels from Limousin, as practiced in the production of cognac in his native Charente. The grand specificity of Rhum Barbancourt comes from its use of sugar cane juice (excluding molasses, a residue from the sugar-refining process which is used by other rums from the region). Sugar cane juice has a much richer flavor (wider diversity of aromas) than molasses, and that difference in the raw material distilled translates in the taste of the distilled rum.

To ensure freshness, sugar canes harvested from a 600-hectare plantation are delivered directly to the distillery. Half of it (those growing in fields around or close to the distillery) reach it by mules only. The other half (coming from other parts of the islands) are transported by mules to the tractor, then on the tractor cart to the distillery. The canes are immediately crushed to obtain sugar cane juice, called vesou. This juice is then fermented with an exclusive Barbancourt yeast that brings out fruity aromas. After distillation, the resulting rum is then left to age in oak barrels.

The Barbancourt Estate Reserve is made from pure sugar case juice, distilled and aged in French Oak barrels for 15 years. Once intended for the Gardere family, it is released each year in limited quantities to the public since 1960.

TASTING NOTES

COLOR: Amber-hued

NOSE: Hints at vanilla with dried fruits, such as grapes and prunes.

PALATE: Fruity, with prune notes dominating in a fine and elegant manner.

FINISH: Long, Rich, and complex, but not overbearing. Notes on dried fruits.

This amber rum is best consumed neat, like a fine cognac.
