About this deal

Loch Fyne Whiskies have many great gifting opportunities to get something special or different for a loved one. Spooning’ is a brand protection practise where a distiller will add a spoon of another distillery’s whisky to a cask when they sell it. Head straight to their page now to find out what incredible deals you could snap up before they're gone!

With water there’s more wine fruit and buttery biscuits, and the wood is tamed although still sits spicily in the finish.NID cookie, set by Google, is used for advertising purposes; to limit the number of times the user sees an ad, to mute unwanted ads, and to measure the effectiveness of ads. Age, type of cask and the area of production will all influence the flavour, although you can expect to taste anything from apple, pear, raisins, chocolate, toffee and coffee to bonfire smoke and sea spray. To taste it’s thick and syrupy, with red grapes, spicy wood and a chunk of tannin, rolling towards a buttery apple finish. Sweet and woody tones from the second fill bourbon casks follow the spice and there is a very very light hint of smoke (and I mean very). We think the aroma is just like a posh Chelsea bun – fresh, sweet, bready and studded with sultanas – and our dessert descriptors continue with the taste: we were reminded of licking the Christmas pudding spoon.

One of the reasons I like the idea of a tasting by post is that it meant I could stretch the drams out over a few nights, and could also leave them for a few weeks to fit in with my rather boozy autumn. While my lack of cupboard space is currently beating my love of hoarding things, my love of drinking whisky will continue to keep the collecting bug away. On the nose it’s quite savoury, with sherry wood mixing with a slight brininess to give rich salted caramel. We moved on to another moustachioed bottle, this time last year’s Master of Malt Movember bottling – M’Orkney.There’s ginger, black pepper and star anise, as well as background notes of caramel and toffee, a dried orange finish and some mellow smoke. The warming flavours of dried fruits, nuts, toffee, cinnamon and nutmeg of these medium-bodied whiskies come from time spent maturing in oak casks – often ex-sherry barrels. A cocktail is only as good as its base spirit, and with apple, pear and sweet cinnamon, we reckon this would make the ultimate whisky sour. I’d missed a chance to grab a dram of this at Whisky Live in London earlier this year, turning up moments too late and seeing a tray of glasses emptied before I could get to it.

Whether you like it neat, with coke or in your favourite cocktail—we'll help you find the right whisky. The driver will input your year of birth into their device and may then require an ID check to complete the age verification process.The St Magnus comes in at 55% ABV and on the nose had punchy sherry fruit, mulchy peat, almonds and marzipan, and a hint of farmyard mixed in with a meatiness that spread from the nose down to the back of the mouth. On the nose it had custard, raisins and perfumed wood and to taste it had sweet custard with spicy oak bitterness and a lingering sherried fruitiness. Product Details This rarely seen vintage Campbeltown malt is a vatting of Springbank whisky distilled back in 1972.

It was rather lively, needing several glasses to pour out into without overflowing with meringue-like head, and in true bottle conditioned fashion was quite sedimenty at the bottom, requiring some care in the pouring.This tropical little number is all about the fruit — think pear, peach, apple and banana sweeties (that last one still counts ok). Their core range includes a number of aged and no-aged expressions, as well as some cask experimentation.
