Whisky List Unlike wine and Champagne, in the world of whisky there are no hard and fast rules connecting region to flavour characteristics. In saying this there are many other factors that historically have come to give each region and country their own style of whisky production. Aside from American, for the sake of simplicity we will refer to whisky without the 'e' in this menu.

Lowlands

Lowland whiskies are commonly referenced as feminine drams, ‘the Lowland Ladies’. The terrain of the Lowlands is characterised by rolling fields that are ideally suited to growing grain for whisky. The softer landscape is mirrored in the regions single malts that tend to be lighter in both colour and body than those of the Highlands. Auchentoshan is the only distillery in to triple distill all their whisky, giving their spirit a light character while retaining the malt character. With little or no peat traditionally used in the drying of the malt, the whiskies distilled here are generally fresh and light, fragrant and floral with cereal flavours. This however is changing in the modern era, with Ailsa Bay, distilled at the Girvan grain distillery, coming onto the market with a peated malt whisky.

Highlands

Known as one of the most scenic regions in Scotland, this land of rugged peaks and heather covered moor-land is the largest of the whisky producing regions. The Highlands are such a diverse region that is difficult to categorize their whiskies accurately. That said, it is common to split the Highlands into the Eastern and Western regions with Speyside in the middle. Technically speaking, the 'Islands' have not been officially recognised as a region of its own and, as such, is included in the Highlands region. For the sake of precise classification, we choose to note the separation as the maritime style of all the islands seperates them from most of the Highland whiskies. As a very vague rule of thumb, the Highlands region is one of big-bodied whiskies, often have a subtle peated smokiness and can be very powerful and oily. Use of traditional refill barrels allows the character of the spirit shine on many of the whiskies from this region. Aberfeldy 12yo 40.00% $14

Speyside

Over half of Scotland’s malt whisky distilleries can be found within this one region. Speyside: the lush, fertile valley of the River Spey is undoubtedly the heart of single malt whisky distilling in Scotland, and possibly the world. It’s classic flavours of honey, vanilla and fresh orchard fruits combine to create whiskies that are both sophisticated and elegant. Whiskies from this region are genrally lightly, or completely unpeated. We can split the Speyside style into two catagories; one is light and grassy with fresh apples and light delicate flavours. The other is rich and bold with christmas cake and sweet spice vharacteristics. With age, and especially when matured in sherry casks, they evolve to deliver dried fruit and chocolate flavours Aberlour A’Bunadh 60.80% $16

The Islands represent a very geographically diverse region and one that is not strictly recognized as a region by the Scotch Whisky Association, technically the Islands are a part of the Highlands. There are so many different characteristics to be found in whisky form these Islands, although usually a slight salinity is to be found, thanks to the vicinity to the sea. To the very north there is Orkney, whose single malts are coastal and full, with plenty of honey, malt, heather and light floral smoke. Then there is the Isle of Skye with its sole distillery, Talisker. Single malts from here are often described as being 'volcanic' in character with plenty of body. To the west of the mainland lies Arran, whose sole distillery makes a malty, rich whisky. On Mull the Tobermory distillery produces a sweet, thick, slightly sulphuric whisky (and a heavily peated version called Ledaig). On the Isle of Jura, the distillery with the same name produces some slightly maritime, oily drams with a nutty cereal character. Arran 17yo 1996 by Master of Malt Arran 53.60% $20

Islay

Islay whiskies are among Scotland’s most powerful, thunderous drams. Often with plenty of peat, smoke, brine and medicinal flavours. Of all the whisky regions of Scotland, Islay has attained a truly iconic status. When compared to the various drink producing regions of the world, be it the Grande Champagne designation of Cognac or the first growths of Bordeaux, there is something magical about the illustrious Scottish isle, some 35 miles from the coast of Northern Ireland. There are eight distilleries on the small island. To the North there lies and Caol Ila. On the western shore of sits Bruichladdich and further west lies the newly founded , Scotland’s most westerly distillery. To the centre of the isle sits Bowmore, but it is from the southern coast, not far from and the closed distillery of the same name, that the most pungent whiskies emanates. The trio of Ardbeg, Lagavulin and Laphroaig are defined by power, peat being the obvious attribute, medicinal flavours and slalinity. Smoke is both a flavour of its own and a by product of the peating process. The peat flavour is imparted during the barley malting process, the peat is burnt to dry out the barley. Islay single malts also have a refined salinity; there is a profusion of seaweedy, kelp rich whiskies. Ardbeg 10yo 46.00% $12

Campbeltown

There was a time when Campbeltown was the most prolific of all of Scotland's whisky regions, with 28 distilleries, or so, in or close to this little town. Today there are now 3, with the newest opened just over 10 years ago. Campbeltown sits on the mull of Kintyre protruding from the west coast of Scotland. The town is surrounded on three sides by ocean, imparting a marked salinity into the malts. Springbank is the oldest family run distillery in Scotland, and it produces 3 different malts. Hazelburn is unpeated and triple distilled. Springbank is lightly peated, salty and bold. Longrow is heavily peated and stands with the big malts of Islay. Glengyle is the new kid on the block, resurrected by the family that started it in 1872, and was closed in 1925. It is run by the workers from Springbank makes Kilkerran malt whisky. It produces whisky for 3 months a year, and has not yet released a finished whisky. Glen Scotia rounds out the trio, and is one of Scotlands smallest distilleries. It makes three types of malt, and only produces 3 whiskies.

Blended Whiskies & Vatted Malts

Vatted malts offer the advantage of having attributes from numerous single malts. A vatted malt is essentially a blend of single malt whiskies with no grain whisky added. Vatted malts are sometimes referred to as ‘pure malts’ though the term has generated much controversy for it is deemed to be misleading. The Sotch Malt Whisky Association does not recognise the term Vatted or Pure malt, insisting they be classified as Blended whiskies Blended whisky needs little introduction. It is the largest selling category of all whisky, and fills back bars and liquor cabinets the world over, whether it's Ballantine's, Johnnie Walker or Dewar's. Blended Scotch whisky, like all Scotch whisky, must be matured for at least three years in oak casks. Blended Scotch whisky is made from grain whisky, which is cheaper and more efficient to produce, as it has a more neutral character. They include malt whisky as well, that adds body, character and complexity.

American Whiskey

American whiskies can be described as pertaining to toastiness, spice and vanilla sweetness. This is in large part due to corn being used as the predominant grain for Bourbon and the generous use of new charred oak in their ageing process. This lends stunning sweet flavours such as vanilla, coconut and spice to the aged spirit. Rye whiskey is made with a mashbill that features minimum 51% rye. The result of this is a more spicy whisky with lots of complexity. Great examples include Sazerac Rye whiskey and Michter's Straight Rye. Tennessee whiskeys are essentially bourbons which undergo the 'Lincoln County Process', developed by the world famous Jack Daniel. This involves filtering the spirit through sugar maple charcoal. White dog and Moonshine are becoming increasingly popular, and you'll find a small selection on our back bar, as well as rarer artisanal US whiskeys such as single barrel and small batch bourbon, straight wheat and straight corn whiskey. The U.S.A. also produces malt whisky in it's own style, often employing wood smoke and local peat to impart uniquie flavours into their whiskies. Basil Haydens Bourbon 40.00% $11
