Islay

Time plays an important role in the Bowmore Timeless Series. Above all, taking some. Not only for the maturation, which took place in sherry and bourbon casks, but also for the enjoyment. The sherry-matured European oak casks were filled in 1991, the former bourbon casks from American white oak in 1992. In the gift box, which is shaped like an hourglass, there is a three-minute running hourglass. You should take one run through each to explore the malt with your nose and palate.

The casks in which this Bunnahabhain was matured for 40 years had almost been forgotten. While checking the whisky stock books, the distillery's blender discovered the casks from which this rare Single Malt was now bottled at cask strength. Ü40!

This Bowmore matured for 30 long years in Bourbon and Sherry casks. After 30 years in the best casks, the Bowmore-typical intense Islay smoke combines harmoniously with tropical and sweet flavours.

This Caol Ila belongs to Gordon & MacPhail's Connoisseurs Choice series, which has existed since the 1960s. In 2018, the entire range was reorganised. The Connoisseurs Choice series now also includes cask strength editions or special post-maturations. Each Single Malt is created as a single cask or from a small number of casks. Detailed information about the vintage and cask type can be found on the bottle label.

This Bunnahabhain 35th Anniversary Single Malt is also part of Signatory Vintage's Cask Strength Collection, which was created by Andrew W. Symington as a Rare Reserve series to mark the 35th anniversary of the independent bottler. Signatory has been one of Scotland's most successful independent bottlers for 35 years. Symington and his team have always tracked down rare whisky casks from distilleries that have already closed, sought-after single malts from distilleries that no longer release casks or distilleries that do not release whiskies under their own name. In the 35th Anniversary Edition, the independent bottler presents exclusive, very old single casks from renowned distilleries on Islay, the Orkney Islands, Speyside and the Highlands. The cask strength bottlings are packaged in high-quality wooden caskets and supplied with a certificate of authenticity signed by Andrew W. Symington, which underlines the exclusivity of these whiskies in addition to their natural colour. This 45-year-old single malt was distilled in 1978 and matured exclusively in an Oloroso sherry butt.

This whisky from the Islay distillery Bunnahabhain has spent 16 years in a sherry butt, which gives it a deep amber colour. The 'Orcines' brand, under which this single malt whisky is bottled, was created by Gabriel and Pierre Tissandier in France. They bottle Scottish single malts independently under this name. The non-smoky single malt was bottled at cask strength at 58.2%.

This Bunnahabhain belongs to the Cask Strength Collection by Signatory, in which the whiskies were bottled directly at cask strength. They are especially recommended for advanced connoisseurs. The exclusive Single Malt matured for 34 long years in a single hogshead.

The Bunnahabhain Staoisha First Fill Bourbon Barrel is part of the Best Dram series from Michel Reick, Kirsch Import's Whisky Ambassador. As an independent bottler, he personally selects the single malt whiskies from his Best Drams on site in Scotland's whisky regions and bottles them neither chill-filtered nor coloured as single casks at natural cask strength. Staoisha from the Bunnahabhain Distillery was distilled in the Islay distillery in 2013 and matured in first fill bourbon barrels before being bottled in 2023. Staoisha stands for the distillery's heavily peated bottlings, which are named after the lake of the same name. Michel Reick is also known for his other series Scotch Universe, The Whisky Druid and The Old Friend series and is a true great in the whisky industry.

This Bowmore was distilled in 1969 and then matured for over 50 years in bourbon casks and hogsheads. The Single Malt slumbered in the warehouses of the Islay distillery for a good half a century before being bottled at cask strength.

Bruichladdich represents one of the most innovative distilleries known for Islay whisky that is atypical and non-smoky single malts. Distillates from 1989, 1991 and 1992 date back to before the reopening. These were matured 100% in ex-bourbon casks for the 30-year-old Bruichladdich, emphasising the typical floral and fruity character of the Islay distillery. 50% matured in refill hogsheads and 50% matured in refill hogsheads, which were exchanged for fresh bourbon casks after 20 years and finally married together in refill bourbon casks for the last three months before bottling. The company is also one of the few to receive accredited B-Corp certification and is committed to social and environmental balance and reducing its carbon footprint during production. The Bruichladdich Wrap is the first packaging of its kind in the whisky industry to be made from 100% fully recyclable paper pulp.
