Lonach
Glenlivet 37 years

 
The Lonach Single Malt Collection
Duncan Taylor & Co. have launched a new range of aged single malts to their expanding collection of unique premium whiskies.

  The Collection contains a vatting of aged malt whisky from under-strength casks with over-strengths’ from the same distillery. This results in truly unique single malts aged from 33 – 37years old..

Russian Standart
 also knows as Russky Standard, is a genuine vodka, which is distilled to the Tsar's premium quality standard established in 1894. By bringing together traditional manufacturing processes and state of the art technology, they have been able to revive a recipe that our forbears took pride in. 'Russian Standart' owes its quality to selected golden grains of winter wheat from Russia's heartlands and pure glacier water from the frozen North. Its distillation is a painstaking and costly process that demands exceptional control and expertise. Only through the passion and dedication of their distillers, have they been able to recreate the true 'Russky Standart'. Vodka with a superbly smooth taste and of a quality unchanged for over a century

Imperial Vodka

This Vodka is very similar to “Russian Standard” and is produced by the same company using the same strict quality control and ingredients.

Both use the softest glacier lakes water, which is not chemically treated, but multi-filtered through 5-micron filters, which retains water’s natural softness.

Imperial Vodka has extra filtration of the blend through silver-impregnated granules, which makes its taste smoother and velvety.



Regalia Vodka

Clear. Faint spicy notes of rosemary, coriander, and mint on the nose. A very supple and round entry leads to a smooth, off-dry medium-full body with sweet cream, delicate herbs, and spices, and long sweet frosting and mineral fade. This will go brilliantly with seafood and caviar.

1965 Tomatin, 37-year-old, Duncan Taylor Single Malt Whisky

This is one of the most outstanding single malts that we have available. To be 37 years old and have so much life is very, very rare. Has a rich, med. amber color. The nose is fruity with sherry and carmel notes. On the palate it has a nice nuttiness and only lightly peated. Very warm and spicy on the finish. This would make a beautiful gift for anyone celebrating their 40th Birthday or Anniversary! Cask #20945 52.7% ABV. Only 181 bottles produced.


Glenmorangie - Elegance


Glenmorangie Elegance is a 21-Year Old malt whiskey, one of the oldest malts to be released from the Glenmorangie Distillery. It has a complex mixture of smoke, sandalwood and mulled wine underlined with traces of oranges, nuts, and marzipan. Available only in this package, the unique decanter is hand-blown by Scotland's leading glassmakers, Caithness Glass in Wick, to replicate Glenmorangie's famous swan-necked pot stills at its distillery.

PENDERYN WELSH WHISKY

Like Welsh Gold Penderyn Single Malt Welsh Whisky is a rare and precious commodity.


This golden malt whisky signals the welcome return of whisky distillation to Wales  after an absence of over 100 years.

Ultimat(e) Vodka

is a truly a decade ultra-premium vodka product in its handsome Polish hand-blown cobalt blue and clear heavy crystal bottle with a crystal and cork stopper. Ultimat is dedicated to creating a very high quality product beginning with the bottle, which takes craftsmen 24 hours to create each unique hand-blown bottle, which are actually two bottles in one, and have a small bubble on the bottom of each bottle, and continues with the Master Distiller in Poland crafting outstanding vodka from a blend of potato, wheat and rye, whereas most vodkas are either made from potatoes or grain. Try it chilled and neat; smooth richness, with a pleasant, subtle clean aftertaste.


GOLDENBARR CHOCOLATE VODKA Imported from Ukraine, where the centuries old tradition of vodka distillation is legendary, Goldenbärr is one of the finest vodkas produced anywhere in the world. Hand crafted by expert distillers using ancient traditions and customs, it is the worlds first genuine Chocolate Vodka.
Jose Cuervo, the world's largest tequila company, has introduced Jose Cuervo Platino, a handcrafted, limited-edition ultra premium silver tequila.

Once reserved exclusively for the Cuervo family's private enjoyment, Jose Cuervo Platino is the first ultra premium silver tequila to be created by a family with a 200 year history of making the world's finest tequilas.

Jose Cuervo Platino, part of the Reserva de la Familia collection, is made from 100% blue agave and is handcrafted using a unique process called "Esencia de Agave." This proprietary distillation method optimizes the tequila's agave notes resulting in a vibrant tequila of exquisite character and complexity - one that reflects the pure character and essence of Mexico's prized blue agave plant. Jose Cuervo Platino is created from hand-selected estate grown agave using the most flavorful inner portion of the agave's piña, further enhancing its distinct taste


Duncan Taylor
21 Year-old Linlithgow

Linlithgow Distillery was
established between the 1790's to early 1800's. The Distillery known as ‘Linlithgow’ or "St Magdalene" was operated at one time by Adam Dawson one of the first recorded licensed distillers. Tasting Notes: Color: Amber with gold highlights. Nose: Vanilla and fruits mingling. Flavor: Lemon grass & honey. Finish: Crisp, dry and long. Hint of oak smoke. Distilled October 1982 and bottled November 2003, Cask #2211, 63% ABV


Scorpion Mezcal
Worms are for wimps
These single-barrel mezcals allow consumers to fully appreciate the true flavorful and aromatic expression of fine100% agave spirits. Distilled in a small artisanal palenque, these mezcals exhibit the same complex subtleties as a cognac, and are far superior to bulk-made tequilas. As a distinguishing feature, all varieties of SCORPION MEZCAL come with a real scorpion in the bottle.
Bushmills 1608

Michael Jackson

Nose
Distinct rose-like aroma of Bushmills. Sandalwood.

Palate
Syrupy, sherryish. Nutty. Almondy.
Finish
Hard liquorice. Late rootiness.
Comment
Very rich and sweet, but still a Bushmills.

Vampire
not just for Halloween.
Hallmark characteristics of the Cabernet variety, notes of rich dark fruit flavors and yet light, not too dry, with complex oak structure. Notes of bell peppers tones complete the finish. Vampire Cabernet is a well made, modern example of the "king" of red wines, with fine tannins and a mixture of 70% French and 30% American oak. Keep away from direct sunlight!
Keep away from direct sunlight.    



Duncan Taylor
Longmorn 37 Years

Vampire
Vodka

As night fell upon the city they were drawn to pubs in search of a way to quench their unyielding thirst. In order to protect their patrons, these pubs sought ways to satisfy the needs of these nocturnal creatures. Only the finest spirits would work to please the palate of their distinguished guests. Vampire Vodka became the choice among these unearthly travelers.

This wickedly smooth drink is the first red vodka in the United States. Triple distilled in England by one of the world's leading distillers of vodka and gin.

GRAND MARNIER SPECIAL CUVEES

CUVEE DU CENTENAIRE (1827-1927)

The manufacturing process of Grand Marnier Special Cuvee is the same as Grand Marnier Cordon Rouge, but, the cognac base allows production of better qualities using only selected and aged cognacs.

This special blend is made from old and selected fine cognacs mainly from Grande Champagne and Petite Champagne aged up to 25 years.

Cuvée du Centenaire was first produced to commemorate the centennial (1827-1927) of the House of MARNIER-LAPOSTOLLE. Although made in the same way as Grand Marnier Cordon Rouge, the use of older and finer cognacs in this special Cuvée gives the liqueur a smoother finish and a unique flavor.

Cuvée du Centenaire was awarded a Gold Medal at the 1983 International Wine & Spirit Competition in London.

Now available in our store.

    Marilyn Monroe 

Wine enthusiasts with a sense of humor have long enjoyed the playful spirit behind Marilyn
Merlot wines, which today are equally prized by wine connoisseurs, collectors, and fans of Marilyn Monroe.

Since 1985, each distinctive vintage of Marilyn Merlot has featured a unique label based on a photograph of Marilyn Monroe and designed by Susann Ortega of Ortega Design Studio.

Each new vintage is released on Marilyn Monroe's birthday, June 1st, and sells out quickly. Collectors have made Marilyn Merlot one of the fastest-appreciating wines on the market, as twelve-bottle sets of the 1985 through 1996 vintages continue to grow in value and are now selling for $7,000.

While the concept and engaging artwork of these wines has given them a degree of fame, it is the wine in the bottle that merits the favor of those who seek it every year. All vintages carry the Napa Valley appellation (except for the 1987 vintage, which was imported from France). The wines are made at the Cult Wine Central in Oakville, California. Some of Napa Valley's finest vineyards contribute to the blend, which is typically about 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc.

Marilyn Merlot wines consistently win praise from critics and lovers of stylish and delicious Merlot.

Norma Jeane 

Norma wines reflect the freshness and youthful charm of the young Marilyn Monroe. These are wines full of vibrant fruit flavors that are meant to be enjoyed soon after they are released.

Since the first vintage in 1998, each Norma Merlot has been produced from grapes grown in the Tallerico Vineyard in French Camp, California. A little Syrah is blended with typically 80 percent or more Merlot, giving an abundance of fruit flavor and luminous color to each vintage.

Each vintage of Norma Merlot features a photograph taken of the young actress in the years just before she captured the imagination of the American public as Marilyn Monroe. Designer Susann Ortega creates each label in the vintage series to reflect the unabashed appeal that will always be Norma .

Like Marilyn Merlot, Marilyn Cabernet, and the newly-released Velvet Collection, Norma wines have captured the imagination of collectors and as well as those who simply enjoy the exuberance of young and delicious Merlot.

Norma is becoming highly collectable. The first vintage, 1998, is being sold for over $150 per bottle. It's distributed in most states, so you can ask your local retailer to get it for you.

Did you know that had you purchased the past 12 vintages of the Marilyn Monroe collection for between $15-33/each bottle it would have today a collector's value in excess of $7500?

Gran Patrón Platinum Tequila
(80 proof):


With claims of being the smoothest sipping tequila ever produced,  Gran Patron Platinum Tequila is created using hand selected Waeber blue agave grown in the hills of Jalisco, Mexico. The agave is pruned, steam baked, triple distilled and aged to provide a superior taste. Each 750 ml bottle is a piece of art in itself, handmade from crystal and polished, hand signed and numbered with an etched label. The bottle is held in a handmade, collectible level quality curly maple wood box.
Asbach Uralt

You might feel that Asbach Uralt, "The Great Brandy from the Rhine," is too distinctive a brandy to be enjoyed any other way than in a snifter. But when you have tried Asbach Uralt in a coctail you will agree with famous bartenders that it is a unique and versatile drink indeed.

In Europe, for generations, Asbach Uralt Brandy has been savored and appreciated by connoisseurs of fine brandies.


LANDY DESIRE

Both glamorous and modern, this cognac has extra smooth aromas. The flavors are rich and complex, from vanilla to prune.




SPRINGBANK - 21-year old
Springbank, built around 1828 on the site of Archibald Mitchell’s illicit still  produces a most distinguished whisky, described as 'Premier Grand Cru Classé' by the London Sunday Times following a tasting in 1983. It is one of the most traditional distilleries still in operation. One of the last remaining independent family-owned and run distilleries, the original buildings are still being used and they operate their own malting floor (using organic barley). Even boatskin larch washbacks are still used daily and they still cut their own peat. The unique wash still is heated directly by oil-fired steam coils and they still employ an old fashioned copper 'rummager' to prevent solids scorching in the base of the still. Springbank operates 3 stills and distill their spirit 3 times (or maybe 2 ½ times as only the feints of the first distillation are distilled once more). This, Springbank claims, makes the final product milder

This 21 year-old whisky is one of  Springbank’s flagship’s, next to the 25-year old.

The nose is big and rich with a uniquely balanced mixture of sherry, peat and salt. No other whisky has quite the same meld of extreme elements: Springbank manages to intermingle the fruity/sherry sweetness, with a toasty, malty dryness, and a salty, seaweedy crispness. Only 2400 bottles produced world-wide.
Crown Royal - XR
Extremely Smooth
Crown Royal XR joins the privileged ranks of the world's finest spirits. It will only be available in extremely limited supply beginning in summer 2006.

Exclusively Available
The whiskies at  the heart of Crown Royal XR are the sole survivors of the Waterloo distillery, an enduring symbol of special whiskies were saved prior to the closing of this longtime Crown Royal distillery before a devastating fire destroyed everything at the site. Since these special rare whiskies can never be duplicated, the availability of Crown Royal XR is extremely limited and will only be released to retailers once a year.


Men are like fine wine.
They all start out like grapes, and it's a woman's job to stomp on them and keep them in the dark until they mature into something you'd want to have dinner with.
