Glenfiddich Fire & Cane
Their Experimental series features innovative and ground-breaking single malts, expressions that explore the limits of whisky. There's an India pale ale-finished single malt, one that was aged in Icewine casks, as well as Project XX that had 20 industry veterans collaborating for its release. The Fire & Cane expression is an equally bold venture, a marriage of Glenfiddich's signature sweet style with an atypical smokiness. Peated whisky and bourbon-barrel-aged malts come together to be finished in Latin rum casks for an exquisite profile of smoke and toffee sweetness.

Palate: Like a Highland peat campfire, with oak notes and toffee. Sharp green fruit, sweet baked apple and soft smoke.
Finish: Lingering smokiness and sweetness.

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.
