Scottish Leader Scotch

Scottish Leader is the blended scotch brand from Burn Stewart Distillers, a company perhaps best known for the Bunnahabhain single malts. As such, it is the work of Ian MacMillan, a 40-year veteran of the scotch industry who has served as Master Blender at Burn Stewart since 2002. MacMillan reportedly based the Scottish Leader blend on a 19th Century recipe of the Ross Brothers of Dunbarton, and the brand name itself dates back to the 1940s Positioned as an alternative to the big mass market blends, Scottish Leader is now distributed in more than 60 countries. So, if the label isn’t familiar now, it should become so in the future.

Tullamore Dew 12yr Whiskey

Our 12 Year Old Special Reserve is a carefully crafted blend of old Irish whiskeys.

Like Tullamore D.E.W. Original, Tullamore D.E.W. 12yo Special Reserve is a triple distilled blend of all three types of Irish whiskey. However, it has a high proportion of pot still and malt whiskeys, matured in a combination of bourbon and sherry casks, for 12 to 15 years. A very fine aged whiskey with great complexity.
