The Dutch firm Van Wees has been in the wine and spirits business since 1921. How they ended up in the whisky world is a great story that also starts in that year with a sunken ship in the port of Rotterdam. Years later, Van Wees started their own bottlings in the series 'The Ultimate Single Malt Scotch Whisky Selection', simply The Ultimate. Since then, more than 1200 bottlings have appeared under that label. The company always tries to keep its bottles affordable.
At a fantastic price, you get a truly special whisky with this Ben Nevis: a classic Highland single malt matured for 12 years in two first-fill Chilean red wine casks! Dark red fruit, plums, dark chocolate, warm spices, malty notes and vanilla. (46% ABV)
The Dutch bottler Van Wees is known for its 'The Ultimate' series, which features affordably priced bottlings. This 10-year-old Balmenach is a fine example of this. The Speyside single malt has been finished for 32 months in PX sherry casks. (46% ABV)
The 200-year-old Mortlach Distillery is known for its whisky that is distilled not twice or three times, but 2.81 times. This gives the whisky a character of its own. A fine bottling of this single malt is this 10-year-old, PX-finished 100 Proof. (57.1%)
The Highland distillery Glen Ord is known for its reasonably priced standard bottlings. This Glen Ord edition from bottler Van Wees is also affordably priced. The single malt whisky is 13 years old and matured in a first-fill bourbon cask. (46% ABV)
Most of the single malt whisky that the Miltonduff distillery makes goes to the blend industry, especially Ballantine's. But next to occasional releases from the distillery itself, third-party bottlings are regularly released. Like this 10-year-old. (46%)
Bottler Van Wees was able to get a batch of casks filled with Staoisha, the peated Bunnahabhain single malt whisky. This Staoisha bottling comes out in the nicely priced The Ultimate series. 10 years old and matured in refill sherry butts. (46%)
Ardmore Distillery is known for its lightly peated single malt whisky. You can find various core bottlings from the distillery at liquor stores, but this is a single-cask bottling: 759 unique bottles of an 11-year-old, sherry-matured Ardmore. (46% ABV)
In its Ultimate series, Van Wees released this 14-year-old Oloroso cask-finished Balmenach. The Balmenach distillery has been distilling single malt whisky for about two centuries, a whisky in the typical Speyside style, but with its own character. (46%)
And yet another strongly sherried Edradour single malt whisky from bottler Van Wees. And again in their Cask Strength series. This malt from the Southern Highlands aged for 9 years in an active sherry cask and is bottled at 58.9%.
Regular visitors to our webshop will know that behind names like secret or unnamed Orkney the well-known Highland Park single malt whisky is hidden. This reasonably priced Unnamed Orkney by Van Wees is 17 years old and matured in a refill sherry cask.
Most bottlings of Aultmore single malt whisky come from independent bottlers. That also applies to this release. Van Wees bottled this 11-year-old, bourbon-cask-aged Speysider in the The Ultimate series at 46%. For a nice price.
Bottler Van Wees always tries to keep the price of its The Ultimate bottlings manageable, like this 12-year-old Linkwood single malt whisky. It first matured in a bourbon cask and was finished for 21 months in an Oloroso cask. (56.8%)
To clear up any ambiguity: Ardlair single malt whisky comes from the famous Ardmore Distillery. Released by bottler Van Wees in the The Ultimate series, this Ardlair aged for 13 years in refill sherry casks and was bottled at a hefty 63.5% cask strength.
What can we say? Every year around this time, Van Wees releases a Saint & Peat bottling of peated Islay single malt whisky. They are always young single malts, so the price can be pleasantly limited. A Dutch festivity right before Christmas! (55% ABV)
