Glenfarclas 40 Year Old
Glenfarclas 40 YO Single Malt Scotch Whisky is matured for a minimum of four decades in used oak casks. As a result, the single malt has an aroma of chewy leather, walnuts and chocolate covered raisins, which gives way to lush notes of cocoa beans, woody tannins, dates and dried figs. The lingering finish, which is never too oaky, has hints of toffee and caramel. Glenfarclas 40 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky earned a score of 95 points from Whisky Advocate, which also named it the Editor's Choice and called it "a very good value for its age."

Bruichladdich Black Art 26 Year Old (1994 8.1)
The Bruichladdich Black Art 8.1 continues the series' tradition of shrouding its expressions in a veil of mystery where the exact casks used to age the spirit are only known to the head distiller. This is Hannett's 4th release and 8th overall. It was distilled in 1994 and bottled in 2020, making it a 26-year-old single malt that was matured entirely on Islay. It is, of course, non-chill filtered and has no added coloring. This non-peated expression has the oak highlighting the delicate citrusy and fruity notes and is limited to 12,000 individually-numbered bottles.

Nose: A bright and delicate nose is spritzed with lemon and mandarin orange, perfumed with salt-sprayed hibiscus, and supported by the creamy sweetness of almonds and pistachios.
Palate: Consistent on the palate, which shines with zingy, zesty lemon, orange, and grapefruit, though cinnamon, peppermint, almonds, and oak offer a tempering influence.
Finish: It finishes with sweet mint and oak, cinnamon, and a creeping tobacco flavor—the end of a great cigar.
