WHISKEY SELECTION“There is no bad whiskey. There are only some whiskeys that aren’t as

good as others.”

Novelist & Screenwriter Raymond Chandler

IRISH WHISKEY

Jameson Crested . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . £8 This is made with older aged Jameson with a high measure of pure pot-still whiskey in the mix, a fair proportion of which has been aged in sherry casks to add spicy sweetness.

Roe & Coe . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . £8 Roe & Co was launched in 2017, marking Diageo’s return to Irish whiskey. It has been matured predominantly in first-fill bourbon casks. This has a velvety, creamy texture and notes of sweet fruit and vanilla.

Bushmills 10-Year-Old . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . £8 The benchmark Irish single malt, this has a far greater depth of flavour than standard Irish blends. A former winner of Best Irish Single Malt Whiskey in the World at the World Whiskies Awards.

Jameson Redbreast 12-Year-Old . . . . . . £8 Redbreast is a beautifully balanced single pot still Irish whiskey, with a warm, generous texture, rich, sweet flavours and a spicy kick. In the view of many connoisseurs, the finest Irish whiskey available.

Connemara . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . £8 Silky smooth with a honey sweet start, followed by more complex aromas of malt and fruit giving way to the intensifying full-bodied peat.

Tyrconnell . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . £8 A superb Irish single malt, with a creamy character and a wonderfully smooth palate. Very drinkable.

Jameson Caskmates . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . £8 Jameson Caskmates sees the reuse of old whiskey barrels. Nothing new in that, but in between, they’ve been used to age stout from Cork’s Franciscan Well brewery. This has added notes of cocoa, coffee and butterscotch to this classic Irish whiskey.

Midleton Very Rare . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .£15 Once a year, Master Distiller, Brian Nation handpicks the finest and rarest whiskeys from the Distillery warehouses and carefully blends them to create Midleton Very Rare. Midleton Very Rare is consistently awarded the highest honours at the world’s most respected whisky awards.

SCOTCH WHISKY

Highland Park 12-Year-Old . . . . . . . . . . . £8 Highland Park 12-Year-Old remains one of the gold- standard malts for other distillery bottlings to aspire to. With a delicious sweetness (heather-honey is their preferred description) and a warming, silky mouthfeel, this is a whisky that never lets you down.

Singleton 12-Year-Old . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . £8 A relaunched Singleton, this time from Dufftown, to replace the now-defunct Singleton of Auchroisk. This smooth, mellow dram is designed to attract new drinkers to the malt category.

Talisker 10-Year-Old . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . £9 A massive success as the island representative in Diageo’s ‘Classic Malts’ series, Talisker 10-year old’s profile keeps increasing as more fans discover its intense coastal spicy, peaty character. A truly elemental malt.

Glenfiddich 12-Year-Old . . . . . . . . . . . . . £8 One of the world’s best-selling malts, Glenfiddich 12yo’s famous triangular bottle is a fixture in practically every bar on the globe. Light and easy-drinking stuff loved by millions.

Johnnie Walker Black Label 12-Year-Old . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . £8 Johnnie Walker Black Label’s iconic square bottle makes it one of the world’s most recognisable Scotch whiskies - and it’s also one of whisky critic Jim Murray’s favourite blends: ‘If there is a silkier delivery on the market today, I have not seen it: this is sublime stuff...one of the world’s most masterful whiskies back in all its complex glory’
