Bruichladdich Black Art 26 Year Old (1990 6.1)
This highly anticipated 6th release of the mystic single malt is just as enigmatic as the last. This Bruichladdich Black Art 6.1 26-Year-Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a cryptic composition of casks. The unpeated single malt has undergone a parallel journey with Bruichladdich's head distiller, Adam. Having worked closely with these casks in his early days in the warehouses, under the guidance of then Master Distiller Jim McEwan, Adam has had the honor of learning and developing alongside this spirit. The substantial task of hand-selecting and blending the very best spirit of Bruichladdich now falls to him alone. There are some specifics that have been revealed to the public and we can share with you. For example, the 6th release of Black Art was distilled in 1990, aged for 26 years, was never chill filtered in the process, is free of artificial color additives and bottled at cask strength, 46.9% ABV. On the other hand, there are some details, Adam is keeping a secret. Cask type? Only Adam knows. In other words... It is for you to find out!

Kavalan Whisky Concertmaster Port Cask Single Malt
Kavalan Port Cask Single Malt, also known as the Concertmaster, is characterized by its rich, complex flavor profile, featuring a dominant tropical fruitiness, complemented by notes of honey, vanilla, coconut, and candy floss. The whisky's profile is enhanced by its aging in port casks, which adds a natural sweetness, red berry notes, and a pleasant, lingering finish with a touch of nutty, creamy dark chocolate and wood spices. The resulting brownish-red color reflects the influence of the ruby port barriques, contributing to its mellow, smooth texture and overall gourmand character.
