A little gift for the festive holidays, a full bottle was included in this month's subscription!

Linkwood Distillery, established in 1821 near Elgin, has earned a devoted following for producing whiskies of exceptional finesse and floral character. For generations, Linkwood’s spirit has been treasured by blenders and single malt enthusiasts alike, with its delicate yet complex profile making it a true gem
of Speyside.

This rare 1989 vintage, bottled at cask
strength by the independent bottler Signatory Vintage, showcases Linkwood at 15 years of age. The nose is a fragrant bouquet of fresh-cut flowers, ripe pears, and subtle honey, with underlying notes of vanilla and light oak. On the palate, the cask strength power delivers waves of juicy stone fruits, creamy vanilla, and delicate spice, balanced by a gentle maltiness that speaks to its Speyside heritage. The finish is remarkably balanced despite its strength, with lingering floral notes and a touch of citrus zest that refreshes the palate. This is an exceptional example of independent bottling at its finest—unfiltered, natural colour, and bursting with character. Bottled in 2004, this bottle may be only found via auction houses.

Longmorn Distillery has long been revered among whisky connoisseurs as one of Scotland’s best-kept secrets. Founded in 1894, this distillery has quietly produced some of the region’s most sought-after malts, prized for their rich, complex character. The name “Longmorn” derives from the Gaelic “Lhanmorgund,” meaning “place of the holy man,” a nod to the ancient chapel that once stood on these hallowed grounds.

This 13-year-old expression from The Distillery Reserve Collection captures Longmorn’s signature elegance in every
sip. The nose opens with inviting notes of honey-drizzled orchard fruits, warm
vanilla, and a whisper of toasted oak. On the palate, it delivers a beautifully harmony of sweet malt, caramelised apples, and gentle spice, with hints of nutmeg and cinnamon that evoke autumn’s embrace. The finish is long
and satisfying, leaving lingering traces of butterscotch and dried fruits that
invite another dram. This bottle is only available at the visitor centre of the distillery in Scotland.

Perched on the edge of the Highlands
Ardmore Distillery has been crafting
distinctive peated Highland single malt since 1898. Unlike its Speyside neighbours, Ardmore embraces a robust, smoky character that sets it apart, using traditional methods including direct-fired stills to create a spirit with remarkable depth and complexity.

This 14-year-old expression, carefully
selected and bottled by independent bottler Asta Morris, reveals Ardmore’s distinctive personality in full glory. The nose greets you with gentle peat smoke intertwined with sweet vanilla, dried fruits, and a hint of heather honey. On the palate, the whisky unfolds with layers of smoky complexity—think bonfire embers and barbecued fruits—balanced by rich toffee, dark chocolate, and warming spices. The finish is long and warming, with the smoke gradually fading to reveal notes of oak, pepper, and a subtle sweetness that lingers beautifully. As one of the earlier bottlings from Asta Morris, this bottle is sold out at release in 2014.

Glenrothes Distillery in Speyside is said to be haunted by the gentle spirit of Biawa "Byeway" Makalaga, who was brought to Scotland from Africa by Major James Grant and became a beloved figure in the local community, serving as a pageboy, soldier, and football supporter. After Byeway was buried overlooking the distillery, his ghost reportedly began to appear when new stills disrupted a ley line beneath his grave. The haunting ceased after a professor addressed the ley line disturbance, but before every tasting, it's still tradition to raise "a toast to the ghost," keeping Byeway's memory and the distillery's eerie reputation alive.

Toast to the ghost with this 22 Years Old Glenrothes by Cadenhead's! The whisky invites you in with a nose of rich toffee and warm hot cross buns, underpinned by a touch of herbal cassia bark and hints of linseed oil. On the palate, it offers decadent white chocolate-covered raisins, lush black cherries, and golden syrup, lifted by notes of barbecue sauce and juicy pineapple. The finish lingers softly with warming spices, layers of chocolate and caramel, and a delightful memory of figs and toffee apples, making each sip a deep, indulgent experience.

Highland Park distillery is shrouded in legend, forever haunted by its founder, Magnus Eunson, a man of Viking blood who by day was a church officer and by night a cunning whisky smuggler. Known for his daring escapades, including hiding barrels beneath the church pulpit and outwitting excise men, Eunson's spirit is said to roam the distillery's dark warehouses, footsteps echoing through the night as he vigilantly guards his legacy. His fierce dedication to the craft and his wild past give Highland Park an irresistible aura of mystery and ancient power, perfectly capturing the spirit of Orkney’s rugged heritage.

The A.D. Rattray Orkney 15 Years old single malt opens with a radiant nose of bright lemons, soft smoke, and a touch of soothing vanilla that immediately captivates. On the palate, it unveils a crisp and vibrant blend of bell pepper, sharp lime, and sweet butterscotch, creating an enticing contrast of fresh and rich flavours. The finish is long and memorable, with a waxy texture that gently lingers alongside smoldering wood smoke and a delightful hint of spice, perfectly capturing the spirit of Orkney in every sip.

On a stormy night in Islay, the mysterious silhouette of a headless horseman was spotted galloping away from a crofter’s cottage, leaving behind an opened bottle of Bowmore whisky with a dram missing—an unsettling gift that no one dared keep. The frightened crofter discarded the bottle, and since then, locals have never served guests from an opened bottle, always presenting a fresh one to keep the thirsty phantom at bay. Bowmore, with a heritage dating back to 1779, is steeped in such ghostly tales, including mysterious apparitions in its vaults, making every dram a sip of haunting history and rich tradition.

The Bowmore 17-year-old bottled by Cadenhead's offers a truly distinctive experience with a nose that is creamy and oily, layered with paraffin smoke, zesty lime pickle, and an unusual note of petrol lawnmowers. On the palate, dry smoke leads the way, evolving from an initial sharpness of sour apples into a creamier texture enriched by gooseberries and hints of liquorice. The finish impresses with its oily smoke and lingering fruity notes, embodying a classic Bowmore character that blends maritime influence with rich complexity with every taste.

Matured for two decades in a single ex-bourbon barrel, this rare Caperdonich bottling carries with it the spirit of a distillery lost to time. First built as “Glen Grant #2,” the stills of Caperdonich fell silent in 2002 and the site was demolished in 2010, making every surviving cask not just a whisky, but a piece of history. This dram is both a toast to the past and a reminder to cherish fleeting moments.

On the nose, delicate floral tones mingle with soft baker’s yeast and a trace of lemon zest, evoking an old-world charm. The palate offers an intriguing journey: cardboard dryness, artificial strawberry sweetness, and the savoury twist of Canadian bacon, all underscored by a sharp note of hot nail polish that lends a curious intensity.

The finish brings a gentle sweetness, with cream and wet dough lending texture to its medium length. This Caperdonich is not about perfection, but about presence: a dram that reminds us that every celebration is made richer by the rare, the unusual, and the unrepeatable. Available exclusively in this Adventure Box, and not for sale.

Distilled in 2001 and matured for over 17 years in a single sherry butt, this unique Port Askaig release stands apart from the distillery’s typically peated style.

From the very first nosing, the dram unveils an opulent bouquet: sweet figs, ripe raisins, and a gentle trace of leather, deepening into layers of dried fruits and roasted nuts.

Under the theme of celebration, it feels less like a whisky to sip and more like a moment to savour, an ode to gatherings, milestones, and enduring friendships.

On the nose, fragrant heather drifts alongside zesty lime, grilled peach, and a wisp of sweet peat, an aromatic bouquet both inviting and distinctive. The palate is rich and full, coating the mouth with smoked honey, sharp lemon, and the savoury indulgence of barbecued buffalo wings.

On the nose, bright and playful aromas of fruit jellies and mixed lolly bags evoke a sweet shop on a summer’s day.

Matured in a single bourbon cask for over three decades, this rare North British expression was distilled in 1985 and bottled after an impressive 32-year slumber. Its long maturation has transformed the grain spirit into something refined and sun-dappled, perfect for a summer evening by the shore.

On the nose, there’s a gentle oiliness laced with green olives and the buttery sweetness of cheesecake base, evoking an al fresco picnic in the late afternoon.

The finish lingers with dried spices and mellow, chewy toffee, reminiscent of seaside fudge shops and long, golden sunsets.

On the nose, it reveals an abundance of ripe fruits and sweet cream, accompanied by biscuit and digestive cookie aromas. The whisky benefits from some time to fully open up.

To mark our first anniversary, we've partnered with Asta Morris to bring you a truly special whisky: an 8-year-old Glentauchers, matured primarily in bourbon casks and finished in PX sherry casks. This exclusive bottling is a demonstration to the artistry of the bottler Asta Morris.

The whisky opens with a delicate and inviting aroma, showcasing light nuttiness intertwined with red currant, dried leaves, and a hint of wet oak. A touch of elegant white pepper adds a subtle spice. On the palate, the initial peppery note gives way to a smooth, oily texture, revealing layers of red fruits and the elegant influence of the PX cask. The finish is exceptionally long and warming, leaving a lingering complexity that lingers long after the last sip.

Bottled at 52.5%, this whisky is a testament to the quality of the spirit. We believe the slight dilution from cask strength allows the flavours to shine without the need for added water.

For our second anniversary, we're taking you on a smoky journey where Highland meets Islay. A vibrant whisky from the Ardmore distillery aged in an ex-Laphroaig barrel. The nose gives you the familiarities of Islay: salty seaweed and smoked ham mingle with hints of vanilla cake. While the palate transforms you into Highland style peat, a fresher style of smoke and a bit of minerality, flint, citrus juice.

We recommend enjoying this whisky at its full strength to fully appreciate its complex flavors. However, if you prefer a milder approach, a touch of water can be added to enhance the citrus notes.

Our third anniversary is a venture into the realm of rare and closed distilleries with a truly special bottling: Littlemill for Little Hill. This exclusive expression captures the essence of this legendary distillery, now closed, offering a glimpse into a bygone era of whisky making.

On the first sniff, a symphony of tropical fruits, with syrupy lychee, passion fruit, and peaches. Agave syrup, mint leaves, demerara sugar, and custard add layers of complexity. The fruitiness intensifies on the palate, showcasing a full-bodied character with a distinct dunnage warehouse background. Hard-boiled sweets dusted in flour mingle with greengages, lime, and lemon drizzle cake. The finish of the whisky remains long and fruity, with a growing oily mustiness that is a hallmark of Littlemill. No water is needed for this beauty!

This limited-edition bottling is a true collector's item, offering a taste of history and a testament to the unique character of Littlemill. Join us in celebrating three years of whisky adventures with this rare and exceptional expression!
