The name says it all: Aperol is the perfect aperitif. Bright orange in color, it has a unique taste, thanks to the secret recipe, which has never been changed, with infusions of selected ingredients including bitter and sweet oranges and many other herbs and roots in perfect proportions. Aperol's strength is in its low-alcohol content of only 11 percent. Producer Description.

The Wine Enthusiast writes: Sophisticated and delightful aromas of tangerine and rhubarb. The palate entry is delightfully citrusy and sweet; the midpalate phase offers just enough herbal bitterness to balance. Ends up refreshing, orangey sweet and delectably herbal. 95 Points Wine Enthusiast.

A beautiful harvest gold and amber colour, with remarkable clarity and brilliance. Perfectly balanced complex citrus, fruity and sweet notes, with subtle orange peel, dried apricot, fresh peach, and a hint of molasses and woody notes. Finishes as serenely as it started in the mouth.

Ardbeg Ten Years Old is revered around the world as the peatiest, smokiest, most complex single malt of them all. Yet it does not flaunt the peat; rather it gives way to the natural sweetness of the malt to produce a whisky of perfect balance - Producer Description

The Wine Enthusiast writes: (Great Value,Tried & True Award)- Bright gold color. Reluctant bouquet is measured but potent early-on then with aeration it explodes in waves of sea salt. 91 Points

Created with roasted black malt, roasted to the extreme, this spirit is all about what happens up front – centre stage. The malt is what defines its distinctive profile. Described as tasting like ‘biting on a spiky ball’, Ardcore is a dram that wears its heart on its sleeve… its black heart!

This non-chill filtered spirit has swirling aromas and torrents of deep, peaty, peppery taste lurk beneath the surface of this beautifully balanced dram. Like the whirlpool itself, Corryvreckan is not for the faint-hearted! Awarded The World’s Best Single Malt. Producer Description.

With each sip, you embark on a journey of extraordinary flavors. The palate is embraced by an avalanche of peat smoke, enveloping the taste buds with a distinctive, powerful, and unmistakable smokiness.

As the smoke subsides, a remarkable complexity unfolds, revealing layers of maritime influences, charred oak, and hints of black pepper and citrus zest. The whisky's full-bodied and velvety texture leaves a lasting impression, creating an unforgettable tasting experience. Producer Description.
