A JOURNEY THROUGH THE WORLD OF WHISKIES,ONE INSIGHT AT A TIME

Crown Royal Maple Finished Whisky is an exceptional blend that combines maple flavor with the distinctive smoothness and character of Crown Royal blended whiskies. The blend is then finished in maple-toasted oak to deliver a uniquely smooth experience. It's the legendary taste of Crown Royal® with a touch of natural maple flavour. Our master blender finished our celebrated whisky with maple toasted oak to yield a uniquely smooth experience. It's a perfect blend of Crown Royal's signature caramel and vanilla nose with the elegant aromas of light, fresh maple that creates a flavour profile that finished on an authentically warm and woody note.
MacScot's is a medium-bodied, soft Scottish blend that with time has become a classic welfare state
Johnnie Walker Double Black is Johnnie Walker® Black Label® amplified, taking its intensity to unexplored territory. Hand-picked whiskies that are defined by notes of smoldering charcoal, including more Islay malts, are chosen for their smoky profile. Then once matured in heavily-charred oak casks, the result is not only a smokier blend, but an unquestionably smooth liquid as well.
Suntory is the oldest whisky making company in Japan. Its origins stretch back to a small shop, started in 1899 by Torii Shinjiro, which specialized in selling imported wines. Today, it is the country’s largest and most recognizable producer of quality whisky. This particular ZEN whisky is 100% pure malt. Presented in a square shaped bottle with original box.
Ballindalloch, on the banks of the legendary salmon river, is for many the home of the definitive Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky. Hugely complex, rich with layers of flavour and a whiff of smoke in the finish.
J.P. Wiser’s Double Still Rye is a Canadian whisky from the house of J.P. Wiser’s, one of the country’s oldest and most popular whisky brands. It is the creation of Don Livermore, the Master Blender at J.P. Wiser’s since 2012. This is a no-age-statement Canadian whisky, and has been released very recently by J.P. Wiser’s. Owing to the expression being new to the market, the company chose to have a controlled release of the product. It is currently only available in Canada, and nowhere else in the world.
Old Forester 1910 is a Kentucky straight Bourbon whiskey from the Old Forester range of whiskeys. The Old Forester brand of whiskeys have interestingly named after an important customer of the brand, and not the founder himself.
The John Barr blend was created for the UK market in the 1970s to imitate the recently withdrawn Johnnie Walker Red Label [see below]. So desperate was its owner, DCL, to recover the lost sales from one of its best-selling brands that the original John Barr bottle even mimicked the square-shape made so famous by its predecessor. Unfortunately, it was not a popular dram and was not highly regarded. Despite a change of ownership, John Barr continues to reflect the brand’s early imitation of Johnnie Walker. Expressions now available include John Barr Finest (red label) – a standard blend – and John Barr Reserve (black label), a smoky blend that contains 40 constituent whiskies including Speyside and Highland malts up to 15 years old.
This Blended Whisky is bottled in Brazil by Pernod Ricard Brasil. It contains imported Malt Whiskies from Scotland that are supplied by J.E. Seagram. I would presume that these Malt Whiskies are produced by one or more of the Pernod Ricard distilleries in the Highlands. Locally distilled alcohol and water are subsequently added by Pernod Ricard Brasil. Natu Nobilis was launched in 1969 and it's still one of the Market Leaders, especially in Southern and Central parts of Brazil.
