Kaiyo Whisky The Single
Kaiyo The Single is a 7-year-old Japanese whisky finished in Mizunara oak, known for its smooth, complex flavor profile. It features notes of vanilla, honey, and floral hints, with a touch of spice and coconut. The finish lingers with a honeyed sweetness. The constant rocking of the barrels during the ocean aging process in Mizunara oak draws out delicate fruity and floral flavors.

Nose: Rich honey, toffee, and vanilla lead with vibrant notes of fresh fruit and citrus zest, complemented by subtle hints of sandalwood and a faint sea saltiness from its ocean-aged finish.
Palate: A smooth, velvety mouthfeel reveals flavors of sweet, toasted coconut, caramel, and stewed apricot, followed by a mid-palate of exotic spices like ginger, cinnamon, and Japanese incense.
Finish: The finale is long, warming, and elegant, delivering lingering notes of vanilla, oak, and peppery spice alongside a whisper of dark chocolate and the signature sea breeze.

Ardmore Traditional Peated
A Travel Retail exclusive, The Ardmore Tradition is a taste of history itself, journeying back to a time when most Highland distilleries dried their barley with the sweet smoke of local Highland peat. Double matured in oak barrels then smaller Quarter Casks, The Ardmore Tradition is a full and rich liquid, with unique Highland peat smoke flavours.

Part of the Beam Suntory family of brands.

Nose: Full of creamy caramel. Toasted oak with spices is evident and rich and just the faintest peat has muscled its way through.
Palate: The full rich flavours burst and fill the mouth with a creamy peat tang and a touch of vanilla's soft gentleness. If a touch of water is added, then the flavours increase with the addition of a sweet ripe fruit start followed by a tang of peat.
Finish: Full, succulent and quite long. More caramel and sugary barley notes and a lanolin smoothness and more tapering smoke.
