Linkwood Ascendance 10 yr Single Malt Scotch Double Oloroso Maturation
$85.00
We jumped at the chance to obtain a sherry butt of Linkwood single malt which we split into thirds:
Vol 1: Emergence – 9+ yr refill Oloroso butt maturation
Vol 2: Ascendance – 9 mo Oloroso quarter cask finish
Vol 3: Eminence – 9 mo First fill Madeira cask finish
The second in our Linkwood series, this ASCENDANCE edition was matured for 9+ yrs in a refill Oloroso sherry butt, then finished for 9 mo in an Oloroso sherry quarter cask, then bottled at cask strength. The double Oloroso maturation makes for a majestic dram of dark fruit, leather, bitter almonds and citrus-infused honey.

BP Old Rhosdhu 1994 (Refill HH) 30yr 46.7% ABV
$395.00Old Rhosdhu is a name that is often overlooked when people discuss outstanding whiskies. We can’t really blame them though, since Loch Lomond doesn’t make it anymore! The first production of Old Rhosdhu began soon after the distillery’s opening in 1966 and the last production was around 2000. More commonly seen as a single malt from independent bottlers, we’re proud to join this elite club with what we believe is a spectacular bottling. The spirit has the typical fruity and floral characteristics that reflect the Loch Lomond production process.
Distilled in 1994, this whisky has been in the same refill bourbon hogshead for over 30 years. This is a whisky that has kept its spirit character over the past three decades, while patiently infusing lovely notes from the refill bourbon hogshead to complement it perfectly.
This single malt scotch whisky is non-chill filtered and naturally coloured, yielding 280 bottles at a cask strength of 46.7% ABV.

BP Bunnahabhain 2001 (Oloroso) 19yr 56% ABV
$285.00It seems like just yesterday that we were announcing our first collaboration with The Whisky Explorer. For its successor bottling, we decided that this would be a bottling amongst three groups that share a love of Bunnahabhain. Southern Ontario Sippers pointed us towards this cask from 2001 that has been fully matured in a first fill Oloroso sherry butt. It was love at first taste for them and we were really close behind – and we knew we had to share this with The Whisky Explorer, who also agreed that this needed to be bottled and shared with the Canadian whisky community immediately.
This single malt scotch whisky is non-chill filtered and naturally coloured, yielding 185 bottles at a cask strength of 56.0% ABV.
