This is the first Miltonduff under the Archives label and it's a stunner.
Imagine crisp tea, honey drizzled ripe apricots, magnolia blossoms, pastéis de nata and the taste of chocolate-dipped honeycomb.
With their series Butterflies from the USA, Archives bottles whisky specifically for the American market. In this case, it concerns an American whisky released in 2018, a bourbon from Heaven Hill. The 9-year-old whisky is bottled at no less than 69.1%!
An exemplary 'Laddie', is how tasters describe this 12-year-old Bruichladdich single malt whisky, bottled in 2018 by Archives in the Fishes of Samoa series. The Islay malt matured in an ex-bourbon cask and is bottled at a cask strength of 52.5%.
For a very reasonable price, this bottling offers you a 16-year-old single malt whisky at cask strength from the Speyside and a beautiful label illustration as an extra. It is a Glen Moray bottled in 2024 by Chorlton Whisky at a strength of 52.2% ABV.
Some have suggested it could be Ben Nevis, others mention Ardmore, but whichever Highland distillery this single malt whisky is from, it's certainly worth a look! The malt has been matured for 18 years in a refill bourbon cask and is bottled at 54.0% ABV.
A fine blended Scotch whisky from bottler and distiller Adelphi for a friendly price. A blend with 70% malt whisky (and our guess is that this is mostly Ardnamurchan single malt) and 30% grain. For 80% in bourbon and for 20% in sherry casks matured. (46%)
The label was designed by renowned artist Tony Koehl, the whisky was distilled by Glen Keith, and the bottler is Creative Whisky Company. The 22-year-old Speyside single malt whisky was bottled in 2013 in 188 bottles at a cask strength of 51.5%.
It is unknown which distillery this Speyside Region single malt whisky from Archives comes from, but it is a 43 year old! The bottling was released in 2017 and now has a rating of over 91 points on Whiskybase. It's a super dram! (Bourbon matured, 46.8%)
People who have already tasted this Glentauchers describe it as a rich, delicate, and elegant dram. The single malt whisky was bottled in 2023 by Chorlton Whisky after maturing for at least 26 years in a bourbon cask. (bottled at 51.5% cask strength)
'Made in Texas, Accredited in London' says the label of this bourbon whiskey distilled in the Ironroot Republic Distillery. London-based Berry Bros & Rudd bottled this Texas Legation Batch No.2 in 2018 in an edition of 5,000 bottles at 46.2%.
The label of this bottle shows two medieval ladies gardening. The bottle contains a 14-year-old, bourbon-matured Glenburgie single malt whisky. A true Speysider with many different fruit notes, but also notes like beer, honey, mint and vanilla. (53.9%)
In 2017, Cadenhead's Authentic Collection released a bottling of a 26-year-old Bladnoch single malt whisky. This malt from the 'Queen of the Lowlands' aged in a bourbon cask and is bottled at 49%. An oily, buttery dram with lots of fruit, honey and nuts.
The MacDuff Distillery is located on the border of Speyside and the Highlands. Much of their malt whisky goes into blends, notably William Lawson's, but this is a single malt bottling by Cadenhead, 13 years old, bourbon matured and at 46% ABV.
You don't often come across a blended grain whisky. And certainly not one like this Hedonism from Compass Box. The three grains Cameronbridge, Girvan and Port Dundas together form a creamy, soft blend, very pleasant to drink. (43%)
You will not often find a blended grain whisky. And certainly not one like this one from Compass Box. The grains Cameronbridge and Girvan together form, after a maturation of 15 to 25 years, a creamy, soft blend with depth, very pleasant to drink. (46%)
Ledaig is the characteristically peated single malt whisky from the Tobermory Distillery on the Scottish Isle of Mull. Bottler Cadenhead released this 14-year-old, bourbon-matured Ledaig in their favourably priced Original Collection. (bottled at 46%)
The Imperial Distillery, built in Speyside in 1897, closed a century later, in 1998. Of course, independent bottlings of the single malt whisky have continued to appear since then, but fewer and fewer. This one is from 2013. (17y, bourbon matured, 51.2%)
Maritime, medicinal, salty and smoky. You only need to taste these notes, and all the others in this whisky, to know that Williamson single malt whisky is indeed Laphroaig. This Archives-bottling matured for 8 years in a bourbon cask. Bottled at 65.5%!
In 2021, Archives released three bottlings in the Venomous Snakes series, three single malt whiskies from Texas-based Balcones Distilling. Like the others, this one is a powerful dram at 66.3% ABV. It matured for 4 years in a new French oak cask.
Ingelred is a Scandinavian label under bottler Blackadder's supervision, mainly releasing Ben Nevis single malt whiskies, such as this one. The 11-year-old Highlander, with its dark amber colour, matured in a Marsala cask and is bottled at 51.7%.
This is a Texas single malt whisky from the young Balcones distillery, in Texas indeed. The powerful (62.9%) whisky was bottled in 2021 by Archives in their Venomous Snakes series. The whisky matured for only 3 years but is rich and full of flavour!
This bottle dates back to the time when 'single malt' was called 'pure malt', and when Cadenhead still bottled in dumpy bottles. The bottle contains a 16-year-old Benromach single malt whisky, at the time intended for the Italian market. (45.7%, 75cl)
