Tito's Handmade Vodka
Tito's Handmade Vodka is designed to be savored by spirit connoisseurs. It is micro-distilled in an old-fashioned pot still, just like fine single malt scotches and high-end French cognacs. This time-honored method of distillation requires more skill and effort than modern column stills, but it's well worth it. Our handcrafted technique offers more control over the distillation process, resulting in a spectacularly clean product of incomparable excellence. Only the heart of the run, "the nectar" is taken, leaving behind residual higher and lower alcohols. The vodka is cleansed of phenols, esters, congenersand organic acids by filtering it through the finest activated carbon available. Critics call Tito's "a homegrown symphonic spirt to applaud!" and say "it can go head to head with any of the worlds' greats and not break a sweat."
Buck Shack Bourbon Barrel Cabernet Sauvignon
Vincent Grall Sancerre
Urgency Pinot Noir
Our Wine of the Week - It has romas of ripe Bing cherries, spices and dried herbs and its flavor is of bright red fruits, juicy plums and white pepper spice.
Bruichladdich Single Malt Whiskies
CHARACTER Smooth as pebbles in a pool. It’s clean,fresh and lively with both the oak and the grain in perfect harmony. COLOUR Sunlight on fields of early summer barley NOSE The bouquet is brilliant. Opening with barley sugar and a hint of mint before leading into the most wonderful notes of freshly cut wild flowers; buttercup, daisy, meadowsweet, myrtle, primrose and cherry blossom. The cleanliness of the spirit is remarkable. As the seconds tick by, more aromas rise from the glass, little zephyrs of spindrift and sea pinks reminding you that this spirit is matured exclusively by the sea. After some four or five minutes and with the addition of a little water, caramelisd fruits drift onto the scene; lemon drops and honey, tangerine and tablet PALATE The palate entry is so refined and refreshing, the sweet oak and the barley arriving together sending the taste buds into raptures. The fruits from distillation drift in on an Atlantic breeze and pop on the tongue like champagne bubbles. A combination of ripe green fruit, brown sugar and sweet malt bring closure. A taste back in time, a realisation that not all single malts are equal and to achieve the absolute optimum, you must use barley that is made in Scotland. Make this one the benchmark for all others you meet on your journey through the stills of Scotland. FINISH Unforgettable! Its best enjoyed in good company, you just don’t want the evening to end. It brings warmth to the heart and soul. The clock slows down and the cares of tomorrow disappear into the dawn. . MOOD Conviviality! Relaxed, enjoying the spirit in the glass and the laughter from tales often told but never tired of hearing.
Westland Single Malt Whiskey
Ultimate Beverage Challenge 96 points - Fruit-forward with melon and citrus but possesses deeper smoked meat and spice notes. Malty and round on the palate with almond milk, honey, and baked pear and peach. Very elegant finish. (Apr 2016)
