Most Cognac cask whiskies are finishes. The spirit matures in bourbon or sherry wood for years, then spends a few final months in ex-Cognac casks for a top note. Kilchoman Cognac Cask Matured does something more committed: it has spent its entire maturation in first-fill ex-Cognac barriques, with no other cask involved. The distillery calls…

Caol Ila has released the second bottling in its Islay Jazz Festival series, and this one keeps every stage of maturation inside American oak. Caol Ila Jazz Festival The Drummer is a 19-year-old Islay single malt, bottled at 52% ABV, with an outturn of just 996 bottles available at the distillery. Where last year’s opener…

Ardbeg has closed its millennium trilogy with the oldest and rarest whisky of the three, and it did it by reaching for a cask Islay has almost never seen: Spanish Tempranillo. Ardbeg Vintage Y2K 25 Years Old is out now at £730, and it is the first Ardbeg ever finished in red wine casks from…

Johnnie Walker has put Sabrina Carpenter’s name on a Black Label bottle. The whisky inside is unchanged, but the packaging has had a full pop makeover: a bespoke Sabrina blue sash, a gold heart on the shoulder and playful dog paw motifs, all lifted from the world of her album Man’s Best Friend.

Built with Pernod Ricard Global…

Living Souls whisky has arrived in a six-bottle drop, and the range is the story: a 15-year-old Speyside malt you can buy for under £70 sits alongside a half-century-old grain from a distillery silent for over forty years. In between there is a peated Islay 21, a sherry-finished Glen Moray, a tropical 27-year-old Dumbarton grain,…

Decadent Drinks’ August release has landed, and it is an unusually wide spread: six bottles running from a 41-year-old Ardmore down to a pair of sherried 19-year-olds. Two of them come under the Whiskyland banner, and those are the two we would put in front of you first: a 34-year-old Dufftown and, the headline of…
