Here is our guide to a few whiskies to celebrate St. Andrew’s Day this year.
Cask Islay – £35.00
Our favourite ‘everyday’ Islay dram here at Whisky Fix HQ. Non chill filtered and bottled at 46%, it has all the warm, medicinal and smoky properties that are a perfect refection of the finest that Islay has to offer.
Highland Park 18 Year Old – £105.00
Considered by many whisky writers accross the globe as the indusry’s favorite whisky, Highland Park 18 year old Whisky is a masterclass of balance, complexity and refinement.
Dating back to 1798, this is a classic single malt: wonderfully complex, with a honeyed sweetness and sherry spice, along with an abundance of soft, aromatic smoke.
Suntory Hibiki Harmony – £48.00
The Hibiki Japanese Harmony is the epitome of the Hibiki blend. Subtle, noble and harmonious, Hibiki Japanese Harmony is a perfect introduction to japanese whisky and the award winning house of Suntory.
This combines complex single malt whiskies, aged in a variety of casks, blended with sweeter, lighter grain whiskies. The result is fruity and floral, with notes of Japanese incense, citrus and faint smoke
