This addition to The Glen Grant Principal Collection is the oldest to date to join its core range. The 21-year-old single malt was matured in a combo of oloroso sherry casks and bourbon barrels, selected and married by the distillery's master blender. You'll find all the classic Glen Grant tropical fruit character here, bolstered by sweet toffee, raisins, vanilla, and hearty baking spice.

This stylish Lalique crystal decanter pays homage to Macallan’s curiously small stills – which are essential to creating the distillery’s heavyweight, concentrated spirit. On the nose there are aromas of overripe banana, white peach and shortbread biscuit, whilst the palate displays notes of marshmallow lemon sherbet, pear drops and toasted oak. 

Taste transformed by fusion. Matured in American and European Oak casks. Then finished in bespoke, recrafted first fill Rum and Bourbon casks, this elevated whisky delivers harmonious notes of sweet apricot and rich caramel spice.

Very sweet with a smooth, creamy texture, this is a Speyside whisky with chocolate and custard notes early on that indicate the dessert nature of this tipple, with slight zesty, tropical fruity notes showing that it also has a vibrant side. There are lemon notes throughout this dram, as well as vanilla sponge and marzipan that demonstrate the softer side of this whisky.

Tamnavulin, from Tomnavoulin, Ballindalloch, Banffshire, is one of the many distilleries built in the boom period of the 1960s to keep up with the public interest. Sweet and zesty with lots of fruity notes – such as pineapple, grapefruit and banana – through most of the dram but the finish is more mellow and provides a calming, smooth end to the experience.

Founded during the ‘whisky boom’ of the late 19th century, Aultmore Distillery has changed hands several times throughout the years. This Speyside bottling has prominent Christmassy notes of orange peel, cinnamon sticks, dried fruits and walnuts. A great dram for those who enjoy something on the sweeter side.

William Cadenhead Ltd was founded in 1842 and is Scotland's oldest independent bottler. Cadenhead's Original Collection whiskies provide a showcase from a variety of distilleries from Scotland and beyond. Each distillery has its own distinct character and flavour: we select casks from our warehouses in Campbeltown to explore and present the best that each one has to offer. None of our products are chill-filtered and no artificial colouring is added.

King's Falcon is inspired by the ancient tradition in which Scottish kings would enjoy a dram after a day of falconry in the rugged landscape surrounding the River Spey. After traditional distillation and aging in American oak casks, King's Falcon Sherry Cask Finish undergoes a secondary maturation in first-fill sherry casks where it develops layers of sweet spices and dried fruit. Priced appropriately, this scotch is a great option when you're looking not to break the bank.
