Whisky ARDBEG Uigedail 70cl...
<br />Ardbeg Uigeadail<br /><br />Pronounced 'Oog-a-dal', it's a special vatting that marries Ardbeg's traditional deep, smoky notes with luscious, raisiny tones of old ex-Sherry casks. Ardbeg Uigeadail was<br />voted by the 120,000+ strong Ardbeg Committee as their favourite Ardbeg.<br /><br />Non chill-filtered at 54.2% ABV.<br /><br />Color: Deepest Gold.<br />Aroma: Rich and weighty with heady and smoky aromatics. At full strength, the initial aroma is a beguiling mix of warm Christmas cake, walnut oil and parma violets fused<br />with fresh ocean spice, cedar and pine needles falling from the Christmas tree. A smouldering coal fire and the scent of well-oiled leather brings warmth. The sweetness of<br />treacle toffees and chocolate-coated raisins emerge through the smoke. With water, the deep smokiness increases in intensity, reminiscent of a fired Christmas pudding.<br />Rich flowering currants and warm baked banana and walnut bread are served with simmering mocha espresso.<br /><br />Taste: Full flavoured and rich with a deep mouth-coating texture, the taste is an intriguing balance between sweet, spicy and deep smoky flavours. The flavour is initially<br />sweet. A burst of winter spices sets off a smoky-spicy explosion countered by a sumptuous mid-palate of honey glazed smoked food and chewy treacle. Waves of deep<br />smoky tones and rich aromas build up on the palate like a fine Montecristo cigar.<br />Finish: Amazingly long and chewy with lingering raisiny, deep mocha tones and rich aromatic smoke into the perfectly integrated finish.<br />

Worthy Park 2007 70 cl /...
Type: Pure Single Rum<br />Raw material: Molasses<br />Fermentation: Selected yeasts<br />Production method: Pot Still distillation<br />Ageing: Tropical<br />Box: Yes<br /><br />Why it's different<br /><br />Worthy Park 2007 is a bottling of the WPL brand, with congeners between 60 and 119 g / hLAP. Distilled in 2007 from molasses from the Worthy Park Estate's sugar cane<br />mill. It is a Pure Single Rum aged in the distillery's tropical climate warehouse and was bottled at 59% full cask grade, with an angel's share after 10 years of 64%. The label<br />shows the copper double retort still made by Scottish Forsyths for Worthy Park Distillery. No sugar, caramel or additives are added at bottling.<br />How to drink it<br /><br />Drink it straight, letting it breathe, possibly with water to have a slight dilution at will. It can be used in blending as a 'cut' to enrich any type of classic rum-based cocktail.<br />Focus<br /><br />Worthy Park 2007 Habitation Velier is the first bottling that bears the name of the Jamaican distillery on the label, different from the previous editions that were called<br />'Forsyths', inspired by the double retort copper still used for the production of all Worthy Park Estate rums. Worthy Park allocates part of its production to 'bulk' marketing,<br />rums which are then destined for blended rums or for selections of independent bottlers, provided that the name of the distillery is not put on their labels. The project carried<br />out in collaboration with Luca Gargano is not a simple independent bottling project. On the contrary, we could consider it 'dependent bottling', since the labels highlight the<br />fundamental points of production, such as the origin of the molasses, the type of still, the year of distillation and bottling, the percentage of angel's share, the mark,<br />specifying the level of esters and congeners as well as, of course, the fact that ageing takes place in a tropical climate at the distillery, information that is not usually<br />declared in independent bottling, since barrels are always purchased through rum merchants and never directly from the distillery. After the first editions, Worthy Park<br />allowed Luca to use the official name of the distillery, so from the 2007 release the name Worthy Park will always appear on the label.<br />

Hampden Estate OWH 8 Y.O....
Type: Pure Single Rum<br />Raw material: Molasses<br />Fermentation: Indigenous yeasts<br />Production method: Pot Still distillation<br />Ageing: Tropical<br /><br />Why it's different<br /><br />From what could be considered the best distillery in the world, Hampden Estate 8 Years Old is made from the single mark 'OWH' bottled without any additives, no<br />colouring agents, but above all no added sugar, and aged 8 years in the distillery's wherehouse. All Hampden Estate rums are bottled with no added artifacts.<br /><br />How I drink it<br />Enjoy neat, on the rocks, in simple cocktails such as Hampden & Pineapple or diluted with ginger beer. Excellent to wash down a baba, drizzled over a soft, well-vanillaised<br />sponge cake or dunked into dry biscuits such as canestrelli.<br /><br />Focus<br />Hampden Estate could be considered the best distillery in the world, located in the northwest of Jamaica, in Trelawny County. This claim is based on objective<br />considerations for the production process of this rum, 5 fundamental pillars:<br />1) the water used in all stages of production comes from a source a few kilometres from the distillery in the pristine area of Cockpit Country.<br />2) fermentation is spontaneous, using natural yeasts and ancestral techniques, to produce High Ester rums that are characterised by their aromatic richness.<br />3) distillation is 100% in Pot Still. Hampden Estate remains one of the very few distilleries in the world to use only discontinuous double retort copper pot stills - there are<br />currently four, one of which, legendary, was installed in 1960, produced by John Dore, with a capacity of 7600 litres and a marvellous swan neck reminiscent of a trunk,<br />which has earned it the name 'The Elephant' - the distillation cycle lasts about 7 hours with an alcoholic degree at the exit of the still of 82°.<br />4) Ageing takes place in a tropical climate in the Hampden Estate warehouse, where climatic conditions lead to very high angel share - in fact 7 years of ageing corresponds<br />to around 25 years in a continental climate.<br />5) No added sugar or caramel.<br /><br />The climatic factor is one of the fundamental elements of the Trelawny terroir. OWH is one of the many marks produced by the Hampden Estate. It is made up of the initials<br />of Outram Warmold Hussey, father of Lawrence Francis Close Hussey who took over the Hampden Estate with his family in 2009. Of the eight different expressions<br />produced for tasting rums, it is the one with the lowest level of esters. It is a rum that has a range of esters that fluctuates around 80/120 gr/hlap and belongs to the category<br />of Jamaican rums defined as 'Common Clean', those that, according to the Jamaican Spirits Pool, have a level of esters that can vary on average between 80 and 150<br />gr/hlap. Nevertheless, the level of aromatic richness of a quality Common Clean rum is far higher than that of any other modern rum distilled with multi-column distillation<br />equipment. That's the magic of Hampden Estate rum, a distillate that thanks to ancestral techniques has a recognisable and unique taste. OWH is one of the most recent<br />marks, born from the idea of creating a lighter rum than the historic marks that have been aged since that year.<br />

Bordiga Amaro St. Hubertus...
Bordiga Amaro St. Hubertus 70 cl / 38°<br /><br />Why it is different<br /><br />Bordiga's Amaro Riserva St. Hubertus is counted among the best bitters in the Italian tradition. It represents the apotheosis of the distillery's artisan and zealous approach<br />to quality. The starting point is the highest quality herbs and flowers that are selected by expert mountaineers in the alpine landscape of the Cuneo valleys. Bordiga is a very<br />special distillery, specialising in rigour and respect for tradition. Its strong point is the medicinal alpine herbs still harvested by hand and dried at high altitudes by mountain<br />people in an uncontaminated environment. This means that the botanicals used are spontaneous, and therefore intrinsically organic. They are harvested without the aid of<br />engines, without pesticides, fertilisers or fungicides and, above all, with great attention to product quality and respect for the environment. Each production, just like in the<br />past, is totally conditioned by the changing seasons and climate. Once harvested, the herbs are meticulously checked by the Master distillers who deliver only the best for<br />processing.<br /><br />How I drink it<br />To be consumed neat, with or without ice.<br />
