Tomatin are to launch three new limited editions:

The first of the single casks was distilled in September 1997 and matured in a first fill bourbon barrel for over 12 years and bottled at cask strength – 57.1%abv . Only 244 bottles are available.

The second Single cask was distilled in January 1999 and initially matured in a re-fill American oak cask before being transferred into a European oak cask which was used to mature tempranillo wine. After spending over 2 year in the wine cask it was bottled at cask strength – 57.1%abv. Only 302 bottles are available.

The third release is a limited edition 21 year old bottling which was created using 7 casks, 6 of which were re fill American oak casks and the 7th an ex sherry butt. Again bottled at casks strength – 52%abv – and limited to a release of just 2400 bottles.

‘Following the first batch launched in September, and a second collection released in January, Diageo are now launching the third batch of their single-cask collection of Single Malt Scotch Whiskies.

Among the seven expressions that feature in this third release are several single malts familiar to many malt whisky drinkers  -  Caol Ila™, Glenkinchie™, Glen Ord™ and Royal Lochnagar™.

But Dailuaine™, Inchgower™ and Mannochmore™ normally enjoy only very limited availability.

Each of the whiskies is drawn from one single oak cask, picked after a careful examination of distillery stocks, and bottled at its natural cask strength. The number of bottles obtained from the chosen casks can vary between approximately 640 and as little as 200.

So these are rare and distinctive whiskies. Aimed at collectors and connoisseurs, prices range from £200 to £300 per bottle.

The fourth and final release is scheduled for May.’

The 3rd Edition of the luxurious Macallan Lalique is now available.

3000 bottles to support The Clan Mackenzie Society of Scotland & The UK. 

Each limited edition bottle will be individually numbered and is adorned with the Clan and the brand’s iconic Royal stag formed in molten metal.

All purchasers are entitled to claim a limited edition print of the famous painting “Fury of the Stag” (below) personally signed by the head of the Clan himself who continues to reside at Castle Leod.

 RRP £100

Today saw the official launch of Mortlach 70 from Gordon & Macphail, billed as “the oldest single cask of Scotch malt whisky ever to have been bottled and offered for sale.”

Available in 70cl for a RRP of £10000 and a 20cl for a RRP of £2500 these are both extremely limited and beautifully packaged in a hand-blown teardrop crystal decanter.

Amazingly for a whisky of this age it is also wonderful to taste, with an elegant nose of milk chocolate and a fresh, fruity taste with a hint of smoke.

Highly recommended both to drink and to collect.

In stock soon.

The next release of Kilchoman is expected around 7th April.

Two further releases are planned during 2010.

Update: August 2010 is the next expected release
