The quintessential Islay single malt, crafted using a generations-old method on Scotland's rugged west coast. Full-bodied yet surprisingly sweet, it opens into a long, warming finish layered with unmistakable notes of smoke, peat, seaweed, and a hint of coastal salt - evoking a bracing fall day by the sea. Its distinctive character is shaped by Islay's natural elements, from Kilbride Stream water to malted barley cold-smoked over local peat. A classic dram and a defining expression of the distillery, Laphroaig 10 is a staple pour for both newcomers and seasoned whisky lovers alike.
Maker's Mark is a uniquely handcrafted Kentucky bourbon, instantly recognisable by its iconic hand-dipped red wax seal. Made in small batches of fewer than 19 barrels, this full-flavoured bourbon is never mass produced and is crafted using soft red winter wheat instead of rye, resulting in a smoother, less bitter profile. Sweet aromas of oak, vanilla, bright fruit, and wheat lead into a balanced palate of vanilla, oak, and fruity essences, finishing smooth and creamy with a gentle spice. Every barrel is carefully rotated by hand and aged to taste rather than time, Maker's Mark is a bourbon shaped by intention, tradition, and an unwavering commitment to quality.
Smooth, complex and robust. An Irish whiskey as uncommon as its surroundings and colourful history, each drop presents an opportunity to uncover yet another subtle layer of its full bodied character.

Like all Tamnavulin, this whisky starts life in American ex-bourbon casks, adding smoothness to their sweet, fruity spirit. Then, when the time is right, the whisky is finished in seasoned sherry casks. Amber gold in the glass, where rich, warm aromas of apple, toffee and honey with sweet marzipan and subtle tangy marmalade notes meet the nose. On the palate fresh, mellow with pear creamy peaches and pineapple and a hint of Demerara sugar.
Tamnavulin Sherry Cask Edition is a rich and indulgent single malt that showcases the distillery's signature smoothness with an added layer of depth.

The result is a whisky with a warm amber gold hue and a rich flavour profile. On the nose, expect notes of vanilla, caramel, banana, and a touch of sweet milk chocolate with fresh ginger. The palate unfolds in layers of maple syrup, raisin, and orange, rounded out with hints of apricot and melon.
