De Kuyper

Cotswolds Cream Liqueur is made by mixing their new-make single malt spirit (unaged whisky) with fresh Irish cream, creating a wonderfully rich liqueur with notes of vanilla and butterscotch.

Cotswolds Distillery

Concentrated and fruity with enough sour fruit to balance the liqueur sweetness. Cassis jam, floral honey and a hint of menthol mint and ginger.

Merlet & Fils

Absolutely top-notch rum cream from top-rated distillery Foursquare, all overseen by rum legend Richard Seale.

Delamain are a house that prides itself on only releasing XO cognacs or above, the Pleiade Collection are a series of single cask bottlings of very old cognacs, often from a single vineyard or vintage. La Rambaudie is from the village of Malaville.

"This cognac originates from the superb 20ha parcel of vines we cultivate today. The eau-de-vie, distilled in a small alambic on the propriety, has been aged in one of my favourite cellars. I have personally selected it for its full-bodied fruitiness; its aromas of fresh fig, swirling amongst vanilla, soft leather and spices."

Dominique Touteau, Delamain’s Cellar Master

Delamain Pleiade

The Reposado is carefully rested in a combination of new and used French limousine oak barrels for a minimum of eight months and up to two years. This ensures that the resulting spirit is the perfect balance between agave notes and those from the barrel.

NOSE Immediately very fruity – red fruits, especially cherries, and jam. The sweetness of cooked agave enhances the fruitiness, with delicate herbal notes providing a balancing counterpoint.

PALATE The French oak influence becomes obvious on the palate, with rich caramel, maple syrup and creamy vanilla flavours. With those is fruity dark chocolate, some of the jam from the nose, although deep in the mix, and gentle spiciness.

FINISH The cask influence is felt yet again in the finish, where agave pepperiness quickly fades to vanilla.

Tequila Don Fulano

.

Bottled at 48% this is a fabulous blend that takes rums aged for 14 years in ex-Bourbon casks and ex-Madeira casks and blends them together for something truly exceptional.

An overproof version of Doorly's three-year-old white rum, offering notes of pineapple, banana and sweet hay that work well in fruity, tropical cocktails.

Probably the flagship of the Doorly's range. After 5 years maturation in ex-Bourbon American white oak this receives a further 1-3 years in ex-Oloroso Sherry barrels for extra complexity and richness.

Colourless and bright pisco with a silver glimmer. A lush floral aroma with tinges of roses and jasmine, as well as candied citrus skins. On the palate it is sweet, round, and even creamy, with a long and persistent finish.

Young and fresh, el Jimador Blanco Tequila steps up with truly authentic character. It's made with 100% hand-harvested blue Weber agave and double distilled with sparkling clarity. We’ve perfected the skills to produce a spirit so rich in flavour that every sip comes to life. Crisp and buzzing with citrus flavours, take a sip or shake it up.

Herbal aromas give way to bright citrus notes warmed by a hint of peppery spice. The fresh and savoury flavours balance perfectly with bittersweet Indian tonic water.

Made with Winslow Plums and a blend traditional Christmas spices including Ginger, Clove, Cinnamon, and Star Anise, this Christmas Liqueur is the ideal Winter warmer.

All this needs is a mince pie and an open fire. However it is equally at home in a glass of Fizz.

From branch to bottle, a rich Italian heritage is at the heart of this contemporary and versatile liqueur.

Frangelico

The original. The classic. Golden Yellow in colour with a light green hue. A perfectly balanced blend of Mediterranean exotic herbs and plants, all sourced and blended in their natural form. The resulting taste is rounded with a powerful aromatic top note that softens to a mellow deep taste.

To this day the Galliano recipe remains a guarded secret. Here is just a handful of the extracts: Mediterranean Anise, Juniper, Musk Yarrow, Star Anise, Lavender, Peppermint, Cinnamon, Vanilla.

Galliano

A rich spirit with notes of vanilla, pepper and cinnamon. Small batch copper still distilled and oak cask matured for 3 years. Delicious served neat, gently hand warmed, or as part of a cocktail

Briottet’s rose Liqueur brings out all the delicacy of the rose, since it is made by distilling rose petals. Extra-fine white sugar is added, and this liqueur — which is both elegant and subtle — is just about ready to be drunk.

Maison Edmond Briottet

100% agave tequila that’s rested in bourbon barrels for smooth, rich flavor.

TASTING NOTES

Bright, golden color with subtle oak and vanilla notes.

Aroma: The nose is delicate and fruity offering aromatics reminiscent of baked or grilled pineapple, but is best identified as pure, baked agave.
Taste: Lush caramel with layers of semi-sweet vanilla, fruit and spice evolving to subtle oak and vanilla notes.
Finish: Long and creamy finish with lingering smoky and spicy notes.

Lunazul Tequila

Golden yellow. Vanilla, spice and some dried fruit on the initial aromas. Well-structured body with a light and elegant touch. Finishes well with a little tickle of fire from the spirit.

Maxime Trijol Cognac

Topaz with flashes of gold. A full-bodied nose of aromatic richness and hints of liquorice and touches of vanilla and cedar wood. Good length on the palate with a very smooth, layered finish.

Merlyn is a magical creation of the purest spirit and the finest cream from the land of legends.

Tasting Notes

Nose: Rich, warming creamy texture and fudge toffee is overlaid with the tingling aroma of fresh clean spirit. Vanilla, hints of banana and exotic fruits – and even rose petals – all linger gently in the background.

Palate: In the mouth the fruits are more intense and intermingle with the vanilla.

Finish: The combination of fresh cream and complex spirit produces a mysterious depth which is difficult to describe but encourages the next mouthful.

Merlyn Welsh Cream Liqueur

Blanco is double distilled, then fermented in open-air tanks, amid fragrant citrus trees, before resting for up to one month in the same French oak barrels used for aging Napa Valley Chardonnay, imparting an incredibly smooth taste.

A nose of cooked agave, banana, fresh coconut, almonds, sweet orange and green apple is layered over hints of elegant vanilla. On the palate, orange blossom tea underscores threads of honey and sweet orange, balanced by subtle white pepper notes.

Reposado is double distilled, then fermented in open-air tanks, amid fragrant citrus trees, resting for three months in the same French oak barrels used for aging Napa Valley Pinot Noir and Cabernet Sauvignon, imparting an incredibly smooth taste.

The fragrant nose opens with cooked agave, ripe banana, apple, chocolate and cappuccino, layered over aromas of vanilla, cinnamon, pumpkin and clove. On the palate, honey maple, peaches and cream, white chocolate and a thread of minerality segues to a pepper and toasted oak finish.

Excellent Mezcal from the Pensador range, with a focus of the Espadín agave! Traditional production methods are used to produce the spirit, making for a flavoured expression that'll be perfect for enjoying neat or in a cocktail. Incredibly impressive indeed.

The first release in Pensador's Especial series! These agave spirits (they won't be classified as mezcal, as Pensador says though the classifications help to protect the rapidly growing mezcal industry, they can sometimes exclude some important parts of mezcal culture, including the independence of small producers and the historical context of the term) are limited edition releases, highlighting different agave types and producers from the region of Miahuatlán.

Batch PA1 was made by Felipe and Ageo Cortez using a one shot distillation method on a refrescador still, made with Tepextate agave. Intensely herbaceous, savoury, and delicious stuff.
