Nikka Miyagikyo Single Malt Whisky

"Barrell's Batch 35 Bourbon is a multi-mash-bill blend built around a base of spicy, high-proof, 6 and 7 year old barrels and softer, lower-proof 8 year old barrels. After mingling for two months, 13 year old barrels with notes of dried, tropical fruit were layered into the blend resulting in a bourbon that is peppery and intriguing on the nose, and sweet and long on the finish." —producer

"Homesick Blues Minnesota Wheated Bourbon is a heartfelt homage to Bob Dylan, cultivated, distilled, and aged for 7 years just 150 miles from his birthplace.

With its deep, intense hue and a rich, smooth character, Homesick Blues promises a unique tasting experience. The velvety texture, enriched by wheat, strikes a balance of sweet and spicy elements, shaped by diverse climates, making it an extraordinary tribute to Bob Dylan's enduring legacy." —producer

"This seventh and last limited release of the Noble Collection, Barley Edition is an extraordinary blend of whiskies distilled from 85% unmalted and 15% malted barley grains, aged for at least 5 years.

"If water is essential to whisky production, it follows that the character of the water used can have a considerable influence on the profile of the spirit. The founder of the Kavalan distillery has spent years searching for the perfect site, with the ideal water supply. He chose Yilan as the site for its abundant supply of cold, spring water flowing through the Snow Mountain. Kavalan, the earliest tribe that inhabited Yilan, represents sincerity, honesty, and the spirit of step-by-step cultivation. Kavalan distillery continues the tradition of passionate commitment to creating the premium whisky. The effort goes into every drop of new make spirit and every seasoned cask we choose. Coupled with the mastery of the blender, they ensure the silky smoothness and distinctive flavours of Kavalan whisky." —producer

"Ezra Brooks is distilled using the highest quality ingredients, ages the old fashioned way and charcoal filtered to deliver a beautifully mellow flavor and smooth finish. Slightly sweet and oaky tones with hints of vanilla and honey. Finishes with a warm touch of spice and tobacco." —producer

"WhistlePig produces a 100-proof, straight rye whiskey, aged for at least ten years through a unique double-barrel process. WhistlePig was released in the summer of 2010 to great critical acclaim, earning 96 points from Wine Enthusiast, their highest rating ever for a rye whiskey, a “highest recommendation” from Spirits Journal, as well as accolades from The Wall Street Journal, GQ, Forbes, Maxim, Imbibe Magazine, and many others. As Master Distiller Dave Pickerell notes, these extraordinary honors both “humble and set a high bar” for the company. WhistlePig embodies the perfect combination of proof, purity, and age — hitting “the sweet spot” in all three categories. In short: more rye, all the proof, and the perfect age. All in. Full stop." —producer
