  1. Single Cask Spotlight

    Single Cask Spotlight

    Single cask drams are truly special. If a whisky is labelled as "single cask", this means that every bottle of that particular expression has come from the same cask. This makes single cask drams often some of the rarest and most highly sought-after whiskies on the market. I've chosen some of the best and brightest single cask whiskies in our shop today - make sure you snap them up, as they can never be repeated.

  5. Summer Spirits: Hamish's Favourite Japanese Whiskies

    Summer Spirits: Hamish's Favourite Japanese Whiskies

    Ever since my holiday to Japan earlier on in the summer for Suntory's 100th anniversary, I've had a hankering for Japanese whisky. Although Scotch will always have my heart, I can definitely appreciate the craftmanship of our former copycats. The founding fathers of the Japanese whisky industry learned their craft from Scottish distilleries, with Nikka Whisky's creator having cut his teeth at Speyside's Longmorn distillery and Suntory's founder choosing the location of Yamazaki because the climate was similar to our glorious Scottish Highlands. After 100 years however, Japanese whisky has grown to be in a league of its own - a few are some of the most collectable whiskies in the world. Here are my favourites:

    Summer Spirits: Hamish's Favourite Vodka

    This might surprise you, aye, but I'm a big fan of vodka too - but it has to be the best! One of the most popular white spirits out there, vodka is an essential base for all of my cocktail wonders. Although it can certainly be enjoyed neat, poured over ice or straight from the freezer. Read to the end, mind, for how you can secure your free gift!
