Glenfiddich has never finished a whisky in port pipes before. That changes with the Voyage Collection, a new permanent travel retail range of four single malts that replaces the Perpetual Collection on airport shelves and arrives dressed in the distillery’s freshly redesigned livery. The Voyage Collection launched in July 2026 and is exclusive to global…

Isle of Raasay single malt spirit, the whisky from a Hebridean island of 161 people that won Scottish Whisky Distillery of the Year in 2022, is about to appear in a canned highball sold at Japanese convenience stores for ¥370 (around £1.90 / €2.20). Tokyo-based importer Toko launches two Legit Highball cans, Silent Moon and…

Gordon & MacPhail has bottled its final Talisker. This 39-year-old single cask from 1987 is confirmed as the last whisky the Elgin bottler will ever release under the Talisker name, and it is one of the oldest Taliskers ever released. Distilled on 3 March 1987, matured in a single refill sherry butt, cask no. 22601101,…

The Port of Leith Table Whisky can is here, and it puts single grain Scotch somewhere the category almost never goes: a 100ml tin you can carry in a jacket pocket. It is the same liquid Port of Leith already sells in a 70cl bottle, just repackaged for the hip flask era. The distillery frames…

Dark Lark No.166 Special Edition is LARK Distillery’s 2026 annual Signature release, a 43% ABV Tasmanian single malt matured in fortified wine casks. According to LARK, the whisky opens with lemon shortbread and wild strawberry before moving into blackcurrant jam, berry custard and dark chocolate-covered cherries, finishing on toasted marzipan and honey. It costs AUD…

Aberfeldy has finished a 24-year-old single malt in White Port casks, and if that sounds unusual, it is. Red Port and Tawny are the familiar Port-finish shorthand in Scotch. White Port, the pale, citrus-and-stone-fruit style from the same Douro vineyards, almost never appears on a whisky label. This one does, as a distillery-exclusive, and there…

The Isle of Harris Single Malt is the distillery’s new signature whisky, and the first core bottling to carry the island’s own name rather than the Gaelic “Hearach”. It is lightly peated, matured in first-fill ex-bourbon casks from Heaven Hill and Buffalo Trace alongside ex-Oloroso sherry casks, then married for at least 12 weeks. It…

The Arran Harmony Edition Vol 9 is the 2026 festival release from Lochranza distillery, and it breaks from recent volumes by marrying three European wine casks with no bourbon or sherry backbone at all. Distillery manager Stewart Bowman has combined a first-fill Port pipe, a first-fill Sauternes cask and a second-fill Amarone cask, all fully…

The Singleton new packaging is here, and this time the redesign is built around the one thing that actually explains why the whisky tastes the way it does: how slowly it’s made. From July 2026, Diageo is rolling out new packaging globally across The Singleton of Dufftown and The Singleton of Glendullan ranges. It’s the…
