The Glenlivet 18 Year Old
This exceptional Single Malt Whisky has been on quite a journey, thanks to Glenlivet’s master distiller Alan Winchester’s expertise. The 18 Year Old is an old gold colour, with sweet buttery toffee notes through the nose. It has a tropical fruitiness thanks to its first and second- fill American oak casks and a tang of spice and raisins from its final maturation in ex-sherry oak. A perfect winter dram.

From Scottish-grown Christmas pines to the most divine decorations, Pines and Needles has grown from a humble family business, founded by brother Sam and Josh Lyle, to the country's biggest provider of luxury Christmas trees.

2016 Vérité wines
The perfect gift for any wine-lover, this trio of 2016 Vérité wines combines the brand's best known styles: La Muse, a Merlot-based Pomerol-style; the La Joie blend emphasising cabernet sauvignon; and Le Désir, which is predominantly cabernet franc. The wines have received 15,100-point scores from The Robert Parker Wine Advocate, which indicates their quality and stature.
The Last Drop 56 Year Old Blended Scotch Whisky
The oldest Blended Scotch ever produced by The Last Drop Distillers, the 56 Year Old is available in a limited run of just 732 bottles. Matured for the first two decades in sherry butts before a long and slow period of finishing in ex-bourbon wood.
Royal Salute 21 Year Old Snow Polo Edition
The ‘King of Whisky’s’ first ever blended grain whisky has joined Royal Salute’s coveted limited-edition polo collections. Created by Royal Salute’s talented master blender Sandy Hyslop and presented by brand ambassador and British polo champion Malcolm Borwick, whose signature graces each bottle, it is an innovative addition to the 21 Year Old range. The creamy scotch whisky’s ABV content is 46.5% – cleverly reflecting the latitude coordinates of St Moritz, where snow polo was invented – and has warming notes of chocolate and butterscotch as well as layered flavours of vanilla toffee.
