Recommended For You

Milton Duff Malt Scotch

One wonders what the monks would have made of it. Moonshining was commonplace in the surroundings of Pluscarden Abbey in the smuggling era of the late 18th and early 19th century. Whether any monastic distillation ever took place is unknown – the original monastery fell into ruin in the early 17th century, but was restored in 1948 and is now the only medieval monastery still inhabited by monks. Distillation certainly took place at Milton Farm where the abbey’s old meal mill once stood.

Lauder’s Scotch Whisky

From Glasgow, Scotland, Lauder’s is a blended Scotch whisky named after its creator, Archibald Lauder. Easily recognizable due to its odd, yet artistically designed bulbous bottle, the Lauder’s brand is also one of the world’s oldest whisky brands that have never gone out of production.

Tormore Malt Scotch

The Tormore Distillery produces a perfect malt for the contemporary taste. The spirit quality is enhanced by the secondary purifiers on top of all eight stills, giving a subtle smoothness and balance to the whisky. The freshwater pearl mussels flourishing in the waters below the disitllery are testament to the absolute purity of our stream that tumbles in to the river Spey.

Buchanans 18yr Scotch

Distinctive rich and well-rounded whisky, with flavors of citrus, nuts, honey and oak. An icon of excellence among Scotch connoisseurs.

Ten High Bourbon

Ten High is a brand of American whiskey first introduced in the 1930s by Hiram Walker & Sons,[1] now produced by the Barton Brands division of the Sazerac Company. The name Ten High refers to a barrel storage location at least ten ricks high, as barrels in the upper part of the aging warehouse mature faster.[1] Although the brand name evoked this storage method, the manufacturer did not actually promise that the brand was from barrels aged in such locations

Bells Scotch

Enormously popular blend that has come on in leaps and bounds over the last ten years. Bell's signature malt is from Blair Athol, with contributions from the likes of Caol Ila, Glenkinchie, Dufftown and Inchgower.

Teachers 50 Scotch Whisky

An iconic blended Scotch whisky from Glasgow, Teacher’s is a drink from the East Highlands, a region of Scotland famous for retaining smoky characteristics in their whiskies. Sourcing their single malts from Ardmore, Teachers is a brand with a significant portion of history behind their products and the years are reflected in their fine blends. Although the standard expression from the house of Teachers is the Teachers Highland Cream, the Teachers 50, released in honor of India’s 50th Independence Day contains a unique blend of single malt and grain whiskies that is hard to come by. The foundations for the Teachers brand were laid by William Teacher in the 1830s, capitalizing on the newly passed Excise Act of 1823. He procured a license to sell whisky and began running a ‘dram shop’ where whisky lovers would stop by and feast on drams of their favorite whisky. Years later, when the Spirits Act of 1860 further allowed more freedom for sellers to mix and create whisky blends of their own, William Teacher put his expertise to good use by experimenting with a number of blends. The Teachers Highland Cream came into being during this time when William Teacher was positively satisfied with a peaty drink with a high malt content, a drink with a complex and rich flavor that made him considering naming it after his own family name. After he laid the foundations for the Teachers brand and created the quintessential Teachers Highland Cream blend, William Teacher passed away in 1876, leaving the responsibility and the Teachers’ brand into the hands of his son, William Junior, and his younger brother, Adam. A rampant growth under the authority of William Junior and Adam Teacher saw increased sales and profit, the purchase of new land in 1895 with the purpose of building a new distillery of their own in Aberdeenshire in 1897. Adam died a year later without witnessing the completion of his plans although by then, the Teachers brand was well on its way towards glory. Surviving Prohibition, and a decline in the number of operational distilleries in Scotland, while also scripting victories by beginning to export Teachers to the United States and the acquisition of the Glendronach Distillery defined the later years for the brand. Fast forward to 1997, the brand released the Teachers 50, a 12-year-old blended whisky that commemorated 50 years of Indian Independence, strengthening their positioning in one of the world’s most prolific whisky drinking nations.

Golfer’s Short is premium whisky from the house of Alcobrew, launched in 2014, their exclusive offering in the premium liquor segment. We need to be very clear here, Indian premium liquor segment is completely different from global premium segment.

Talisker Storm Malt Scotch

Powerful, fresh-clean and growing in complexity like a gathering storm. Sweet maltiness with ripe red berry fruit moves to smoke, brine and an explosion of pepper.
