Launched in 2020, the 25th year of Arran’s production, this expression was aged in a combination of 35% ex-sherry and 65% ex-bourbon casks, and it was all allowed 12 months of maturation in first-fill and refill sherry hogsheads before bottling. Here’s to a quarter of a century of top whisky from Arran, and here’s to many more!

This special edition Royal Salute 21 Year Old Lunar New Year 2025 is more than just a bottle of whisky – it’s a cultural experience that symbolises happiness and wealth in the coming year for the whole family. With an impressive array of symbolic elements such as fireworks and plum blossoms, it pays homage to the joys of the Chinese New Year.
Royal Salute has created a remarkable collaboration with multi-award winning Chinese illustrator Feifei Ruan to interpret the concept of ‘Light the New Year’. Her style uniquely combines imagination, traditional drawing and vibrant colours.
Royal Salute is an exceptional blend of very rare whiskies matured for a minimum of 21 years at Strathisla Distillery, the oldest working Highland distillery in Scotland.
Rich, full-bodied, deep fruity flavours with a subtle smokiness. From the first taste of Royal Salute, aromas of sweet pears and citrus fruits come alive, balanced by a full aroma of autumn flowers. On the tongue, a sumptuous taste of sweet orange and marmalade bursts forth, bursting with fresh pears. The second taste delivers a rich blend of spice and hazelnut flavors that fill the mouth intensely, and then a finishing warmth from hints of smoke.
Our Tullibardine 15 year old, was distilled after the reopening of the distillery in 2003. It has been matured in first-fill bourbon casks, under the watchful eye of our master distiller, in our traditional warehouses at the foot of the Ochil Hills.
This exceptional single malt delivers a nose of delicate dried hay and parma violets, with touches of baked apple, cloves and vanilla ice-cream. Notes of freshly baked scones with hints of strawberry jam and clotted cream, marry with delicate spices, with a finish of subtle nuttiness, this whisky is pleasantly nostalgic of summer days gone by.
Sweet to start with notes of peach iced tea and cola syrup, this dram from Glentauchers distillery develops as you sip revealing savoury notes of cigar box, taragon and nutmeg.
Glentauchers’ spirit has a long history of making its way into blends but this gives independent bottlers the perfect opportunity to be involved in sharing the flowery aroma of ‘Tauchers with the world.
Sitting in Mulben, Moray, the distillery has consistently produced a light spirit throughout its history, even though it has been known to fall foul of relatively fallow periods for the whisky industry but, despite occasional ups and downs, it is still around today and we are very glad it is.
