Shhh...'tis a secret announcement

We've got two secret single malts to announce today, one from Speyside and one from Islay. The distillery names shall not be mentioned at all, so please don't ask!

The first is long aged single malt from Speyside - our first ever batch from Speyside Distillery #1 is a 50 year old! That's right, this treacle-coloured malt has been slumbering for over half a century. Just 604 bottles were filled at 48.6% abv.

The second secret hails from Islay. It's our first batch under the Islay Distillery #3 label, but you may recognise the artwork... It's a heavily peated 7 Year Old, so you can expect plenty of those yummy medicinal notes here. Bottled at 49.2% abv, we've filled just 830 bottles.

These marvellous malts are available from fine retailers at the following recommended retail prices:

• Speyside Distillery #1 50 Year Old - £609.95
• Islay Distillery #3, 7 Year Old - £47.95

Off-trade/on-trade enquiries should be directed to our UK distributor, Maverick Drinks.

More Octomore and more!

We've got four new releases to shout about today. Whoop! A heavily peated Octomore, two Speysiders from Benriach and Glen Moray, and a single grain from Loch Lomond.

First up is our second batch of Octomore, a 10 Year Old bottled at 48.8% abv. We've filled 1,195 bottles of this ultra heavily peated Islay single malt from the Bruichladdich distillery. Expect medicinal notes alongside salty sea spray.

Our first (in this announcement) whisky from Speyside hails from the Benriach distillery. Batch 5 is a 6 Year Old bottled at 49.7% abv, and just 377 bottles have been filled. This ain't your usual Speyside malt though, as it's a peated Benriach, mmmm very interesting!

It's been five long years since our last batch from the Glen Moray distillery, so we're pretty excited about our latest batch. Our second batch is a 10 Year Old bottled at 48.6% abv. Just 376 bottles of this charming Speysider have been filled. If you like banana bread, you're going to love this!

A fourth batch of single grain from the ever adaptable Loch Lomond distillery is our final new release today. There are 502 bottles of our 21 Year Old bottled at 48.4% abv. Think of buttered corn on the cob with a dusting of black pepper. It's dangerously drinkable!

These tantalising treats are available from fine retailers at the following recommended retail prices:

• Octomore Batch 2, 10 Year Old - £174.95
• Benriach Batch 5, 6 Year Old - £54.95
• Glen Moray Batch 2, 10 Year Old - £54.95
• Loch Lomond Batch 4, 24 Year Old - £49.95

Double Bunnahabhain!

We've got not one but two new batches of Bunnahabain being released today, alongside whisky from Inchgower and Port Dundas!

First up we've got Batch 5 of our Bunnahabhain bottlings - this one is an 11 year old expression from the Islay-based distillers, bottled at 49.5% ABV. Though youthful, this is a complex dram boasting winter spice, salted peanut and flapjack notes. 1,091 bottles were produced.

Now, if you got quite a lot of enthusiasm for Bunnahabhain (enthusihabhain?), perhaps you're already looking forward to Batch 6. Well, surprise! Batch 6 is already here! It's a 26 year old single malt, bottled at 41.9% ABV with a small run of only 129 bottles. Grab one while you can!

With the Bunnahabhain boffins satiated, we look to Speyside for something a little different - our third batch of Inchgower! This 14 year old from Inchgower is packed to the brim with orchard fruit and honey, making it a great dram for the warm summer evenings we're experiencing at the moment. 1,096 bottles were produced.

And finally, our newest batch of single grain from Port Dundas has arrived too! A wonderfully creamy 8 year old single grain from the sadly closed distillery in Glasgow. 521 bottles were produced, bottled at 53.6% ABV.

These marvellous whiskies are available from fine retailers at the following recommended retail prices:

• Bunnahabhain Batch 5, 11 Year Old - £73.95
• Bunnahabhain Batch 6, 26 Year Old - £159.95
• Inchgower Batch 3, 14 Year Old - £54.95
• Port Dundas Batch 2, 8 Year Old - £34.95
