Ardbeg Dolce
La Dolce Vita, Islay Style

Sicily, the land of headscarves, scooters and long walks along the beach, drenched in sun. Islay, the land of headscarves, tractors and long walks along the beach, just drenched.

Matured in 'dolce' (sweet) Marsala fortified wine casks, Ardbeg Dolce unites dry, sweet Sicilian heat with the classic, intense smoke of Ardbeg bourbon barrels. Inspired by the slow, soulful pace of life in Sicily and the glamourous allure of 1960s cinema, this is a whisky that takes all the elegance and charm of the Mediterranean, and fuses it with the rugged, windswept spirit of Islay.

ABV: 47.8%

Best occasion to drink: By the coast, with fellow Ardbeggians - Come Islay rain or Sicily shine.

#N/A

Campari is an Italian drink developed by Gaspare Campari in 1860. It is made by steeping a secret mixture of herbs in alcoholic spirits, creating a strongly flavoured alcoholic beverage. Used in a wide variety of cocktails or in the classic Campari and soda.

This was a surprise when it was released in 2018 as the distillery was closed from 1993 onwards and finally dismantled in the early 2000s. It was matured in refill American oak hogsheads and bottled at a cask strength 52.1% and the result is a lively vibrant expression with pastry, green apples and coconuts at the fore. Always a pleasure to sample  malt from a ghost distillery knowing that nothing quite like it will ever be produced again.

Bootleg Brewing - 

like your mama used to make (if she was bavarian)

crisp, bright and balanced with a long finish that showcases just how great this style of lager can be.

This unique liqueur is made at the Foursquare distillery in Barbados, combining sugar cane alcohol which is married with lime, almond and cloves. It is the star ingredient in a number of cocktails, most famously in the 'Tiki' style, like the famous Zombie from Donn Beach in the early 1930's.

This single vintage expression from Foursquare was distilled in 2011 and matured for twelve years in a parcel of ex Bourbon casks. There are notes of fragrant citrus oil, molasses treacle, freshly grated ginger and cracked pepper. The white oak shows its influence with notes of creamy vanilla  and coconut.

This expression from Foursquare distillery has undergone a somewhat complex maturation. It is a combination of three batches of spirit, some of which matured in ex Bourbon casks for sixteen years, some spent three years in ex Bourbon, with thirteen years in ex Oloroso sherry casks, and the other parcel spent nine years in bourbon, and seven in oloroso sherry casks. There are notes of sweet dried fruits, freshly ground coffee, juicy overripe cherries and tropical fruits alongside gingerbread spice.

This is the second release of this Chardonnay, following on from a micro release in 2024. Situated on the chalky hillside of this tiny North Canterbury single vineyard, the Chardonnay vines work hard in the prevailing warm winds. Each task is performed in the vineyard with quality in mind and the work is lovingly done by hand throughout the season. Hand picked at the end of March, whilst the vines were enjoying a prolonged period of dry Autumn weather. Gently whole-bunch pressed, with the new juice going into French oak barrels for a natural fermentation over the following months. Aged for 10 months and bottled without fining.
