Deep, golden mahogany in colour with orange, marmalade and aromatic spice on the nose. Elegant and rich on the palate with concentrated citrus, Oloroso sherry with hints of sweet vanilla pod. An aftertaste of great complexity. The perfect spirit to tease the palate before dining.The exceptional richness of The Dalmore spirit benefits from slightly longer maturation than is typically practised in Scotland. So their youngest expression is bottled only after twelve years, rather than the more usual ten. Their Master Blender, with some four decades of expertise, has discovered that the complex spirit from the stills is too rich to be tamed by a single style of cask. He favours fusing together the sweet, vanilla rich whiskies from ex-bourbon barrels with the aromatic, spicy and dried fruits characters from sherry casks from Spain.In this, our entry level expression we have sought balance and richness by selecting malts in a 50:50 recipe - 50% from ex bourbon barrels and 50% from ex-sherry butts.

Tasting Notes by Dr Whisky Honey and lemon, green grapes, skin cream/lotion. Very fresh on the nose. The peat is in there, but it is all so perfumed, estery, and free of the associations that often appear with peat smoke that it could go unnoticed. Apple crumble, margarine, and a touch of animal hide. Okay, well the smoke will not go unnoticed on the palate, but it is so clean, and surrounded by floral sweetness, that to compare it to a Scottish whisky would not quite be fair (to either). Peated barley at the heart of the flavours, grassy, and increasingly drying. Oak and almonds. Minimize

Monkey Shoulder uses only malt Scotch whisky from three of Speyside's finest distilleries. This triple malt is catching the attention of the country's leading bartenders for its smooth and rich qualities, making it ideal for mixing as well as drinking in the more traditional way. As Charlotte Voisey, of London's Apartment 195 explains, 'the atractive name and bottle spark curiosity, and once explained, bring a smile to your face.'Rooted in malt whisky lore, Monkey Shoulder is inspired by and named in honour of the malt men at William Grant, who are among the few still to turn the malting barley by hand using a sheil (wooden shovel). Monkey Shoulder was a nickname given to a temporary injury some malt men occasionaly suffered many years ago as a result of repeatedly bending over whilst turning the malt. Thankfully, working practices have now changed and the condition no longer exists.Crafted in small batches of just 27 casks, Monkey Shoulder's smooth and and rounded taste has accents of malty sweetness, vanilla, marmalade and barley sugar. The iconic bottle design, complete with three brass monkeys - each representing one of the constituent single malts - on the bottle's shoulder, is sure to attract confident, liberal minded people with discerning taste and ensures it's not one to hide away in the drinks cabinet!

Sheep Dip, despite its iconoclastic name, is a truly great Scotch Whisky. Blended at Spencerfield Farm in Fife, surrounded by fields of wheat and barley and overlooking the Firth of Forth, Sheep Dip was created by Richard Paterson, Scotland's renowned and only third generation master blender. It is made from several single malt whiskies, aged between eight and twelve years in quality "first fill wood," each adding unique characteristics. Sheep Dip has a delicate and refined nose, with the taste a majestic assertion of pure malty flavours drawn from the four distilling regions of Scotland. The name commemorates the days when farmers distilled their own whisky and in order to avoid paying taxes to the revenue man, hid it in barrels marked "sheep dip". Minimize

Located on the Orkney Islands, one of the northern most parts of Scotland, is the Highland Park distillery. Founded on this remote and windswept island in 1798, the distillery has, for more than two centuries produced a full flavoured, single malt scottish whisky. Made from the best Barley malted over peat fires; merged with the unique spring waters of the island; and aged in casks for twelve long years that shape its rare and very distinctive character. In 1888, James Grant, whose father was the manager of the Glenvilet distillery, became managing partner, and later owner of Highland Park. Its product retains much that is traditional, even original. It has its own floor maltings and peat beds (the peat is cut shallow to impart a light 'rooty' character) and two traditional peat-fired kilns. During malting a little heather is burned.The Highland Distillery has more than an affinity with the West Highlands in its flavour than with the palish, fragrant, fresh flavoured North Highland groups of malt. Highland Park is a medium bodied whisky with a heathery aroma. Minimize

Laphroaig Malt Whisky is distilled in the Islay region of Scotland. Laphroaig (pronounced la-froyg) is one of the most distinctive of all malt whiskies.

In 1847 Donald died in a somewhat bizarre accident after falling into a vat of partially made whisky ('burn't Ale').Laphroaig (Gaelic: The beautiful hollow by the broad bay) has its own peat beds on Islay. Its maturation warehouses face directly on to the sea.For many, it is an acquired taste, but one which rewards persistance. Its palate is smokey with a long aftertaste. If you like Islay smokey whiskies, then you'll love this one, you can almost taste the sea. Minimize
