70cl / 40%
  • Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky
  • Distillery Bottling


A bottle of Glenfiddich's 18-year-old Ancient Reserve single malt whisky, presented in the usual Glenfiddich livery rather than the dumpy decanters they used in the early 1990s. An impressive whisky, with delicacy hiding behind some more punchy fruit-led flavours.

HIGHLAND PARK 50 YEAR OLD

70cl / 44.8%
  • Island Single Malt Scotch Whisky
  • Distillery Bottling



New York based Gillies grew up in Edinburgh and used her expertise in jewellery making to create the elementally inspired bottle. It not only features the metallic net, but also a piece of Orkney sandstone carved with the Highland Park crest and a hidden silver replica of the Rose Window from Orkney's St Magnus cathedral inside the bottle, slowly revealed as the whisky is drunk. This would mean little if the liquid itself wasn't also impressive and inevitably it is. Only 275 bottles were produced from a vatting of five casks, all filled in 1960, and it has the hallmarks of continuing Highland Park's reputation for superb old whisky.


BALBLAIR 1989 
3rd Release

70cl / 46%
  • Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky
  • Distillery Bottling


The third release of Balblair's popular 1989 vintage whisky, sitting in the middle of their range of dated drams. The strength has been upped to 46% from 43% for the previous release, giving this edition a little more oomph and flavour intensity. A very drinkable dram indeed.
