Recommended For You

Connemara Peated

Thought peat was all about Islay? Think (or perhaps that should be 'drink') again. All Islay fans owe it to themselves to check out Connemara from the splendid Cooley distillery.

Dunville's Three Crowns

Dunville's Three Crowns was an Irish whiskey produced by Dunville in Belfast years and years ago, though sadly the Dunville's brand was lost to the ravages of time in the 1930s. Fast-forward to 2016, and the Echlinville distillery (Northern Ireland's first licensed distillery in over 125 years) have revitalised the Dunville name and relaunched Dunville's Three Crowns! Huzzah!

Paul John Bold

Following their Edited release, Bold is a fully peated single malt from Paul Distilleries (they're aptly named expressions).Peat is brought over to Goa from Islay for Bold, where it is used to dry their 6-row Indian barley.

J&B Rare Scotch Whisky

Justerini & Brooks Rare, more commonly known as the J&B Rare is a no-age-statement blended Scotch whisky. It is the Justerini & Brook’s brand’s only whisky expression in the market today. The J&B Rare is one of the world’s bestselling blended Scotch whiskies. It was first released following the end of Prohibition in America, and is the brand’s only continuously produced expression.

Dewar's White Label Scotch Whisky

A sophisticated whisky that's possesses honey and spicy tones, yet remains light and smoky. Taste the velvetiness that could only come from 40 of Scotland's finest single malts and grain whiskies and over 150 years of bold, Dewar's Scottish tradition.

Hellyers Road Slightly Peated

The Hellyers Road distillery in Tasmania creates this expression by blending its Original (unpeated) single malt with a small portion of its Peated single malt - hence "Slightly Peated". As you would expect from that name, this whisky offers up a subtle suggestion of smoke, with plenty of barley-rich notes to keep the peat from getting out of hand.

Hewitts Whiskey

Hewitts is a famous old brand name that was originally produced by Watercourse Distillery in Cork. As mergers and acquisitions occured it became part of the Cork Distillers Company and was most likely bottled using whiskey from Midleton Distillery and possibly one or two others.

Proper No. Twelve Irish Whiskey

Old Canada Whisky

McGuinness Old Canada Whisky is a straightforward Canadian style Rye Whisky, but it has been aged a bit longer than most. Old Canada is aged 8 years, and they re-use barrels again and again. Some of the casks are very old indeed, but all of them start as American white oak, ex-Bourbon casks. They then blend the Whiskies across their distilleries, barrels and batches
