Sipsmith London Dry Gin

Sipsmith London Dry GinSipsmith’s London Dry Gin is distilled from the finest English Barley spirit with ten carefully selected botanicals, and blended with the exceptionally pure water of Lydwell spring, the source of the River Thames. The result is an interpretation of the classic London Dry style that nods to its heritage and emerges as a particularly dry gin with a wonderful burst of juniper and a zesty, citrus freshness.

Brenne Single Malt French Whisky

Brenne Single Malt WhiskyBrenne Estate Cask is a single-barrel release that is hand-crafted from seed-to-spirit in Cognac, France by a 3rd generation distiller. The two varietals of barley, which are grown in the chalk-rich soil of Cognac, are fermented more slowly at colder temperatures to extract more complexity from the grains. The wash is distilled twice in a copper alembic still and then starts the aging in lightly charred, heavily toasted new French Limousin oak barrels for a minimum of five years. It is then transferred into our distiller’s own used Cognac barrels for an average of 2 years. Brenne Estate Cask is never vatted and is proofed down to 40% abv for bottling. This creates an entirely new flavor profile to the single malt category – offering more fruit-forward and complex sugar notes. There will be very slight variations between each barrel release (individual barrel numbers are stamped on the back label) which further emphasizes the hand-crafted nature of this spirit.

The distinctive whisky we create with such passion and care here on Skye speaks very boldly of the dramatic island where it was born. Everyone here is delighted at the skill with which our malt masters have put together this vivacious new Talisker. Talisker Storm is indeed the right name for it!”

 

Tasting Notes:
Nose: Spicy, mellow smoke and a honeyed sweet maltiness with an explosion of pepper.
Palate: At first sweetly mellow and rich followed quickly by a spicy heat, like a gathering Storm. The flavour is elegantly drawn out with a balance of sweetness, smoke and salt.
Finish: Clean, warming, with a lasting aftertaste
