Whiskies from Scotland, Ireland, and Japan

Scotland is perhaps the whisky country par excellence. For centuries, Scots have been producing this versatile drink, made from just grain, water, and yeast. Their blended whiskies are consumed worldwide by millions of enthusiasts. Scottish single malts are the height of prestige. These whiskies are made from barley at a single Scottish distillery.

This does not mean that the Scots have the exclusive rights to good whisky. The Whisky Tasting Collection does not overlook the rest of the world. Countries like Ireland, India, and Japan have earned their place on the global stage, and also in the whisky tastings from Tasting Collection.

De Knockando distilleerderij (1898) ligt aan de rivier Spey. Knockando bottelt niet op een vooraf bepaalde leeftijd, maar alleen wanneer de juiste rijpheid is bereikt. Op de fles staat de distillatiedatum. Voor de rijping gebruikt men vooral Bourbonvaten en een klein deel Sherryvaten. Het aandeel sherryvaten is beperkt zodat ook deze niet gaan overheersen in de smaak. Er wordt alleen gebruik gemaakt van natuurlijke ingrediënten. Het eindresultaat is een subtiele, fruitige single malt die alle kenmerken heeft van de beste Speyside malts.

John Smith, de in die tijd de meest ervaren distillateur van Schotland, bouwde in 1869 de Cragganmore distilleerderij. De door hemzelf ontworpen spirit stills vallen op door hun ongewone vorm. Hij ontwierp deze destijds zelf om een lichter eindproduct te krijgen. De zwaardere alcoholen condenseren hierbij, vallen terug in de still en komen niet in het eindproduct terecht. Dit verklaart de enorme complexiteit van de Cragganmore malt. Whisky journalisten Michael Jackson en Dave Broom verkozen Cragganmore beiden als hun grote favoriet in deze prijsklasse.

Ruim de helft van de malt whiskydistilleerderijen in Schotland ligt in Speyside en de Dufftown-distilleerderij ligt in het hart van deze vruchtbare regio, omringd door bergen, rivieren en de zee. De distilleerderij ligt in het dorp Dufftown, dat ook wel de wereldhoofdstad van maatwhisky wordt genoemd. Perfect in balans, natuurlijk rijk en zacht. De onmiskenbare smaak van The Singleton komt voort uit een selectie van Europees en Amerikaans eikenhout. Het is een volle, zachte single malt en een ideale eerste kennismaking met Schotse whisky.

Cardhu is afkomstig uit een van de oudste distilleerderijen in Speyside, die al ruim 200 jaar zijn gevestigd aan de voet van de heuvels bij de rivier Spey. De Cardhu Master Blender heeft de vaten met zorg gekozen om een zoete malt whisky samen te stellen met stille, kruidige afdronk, om van te watertanden. Gold Reserve is fruitiger en warmer dan de klassieke 12 Year Old. De eerste zoetheid wordt afgesneden door frisse sinaasappelschil, gevolgd door een subtiele, minerale droogheid. Cardhu Gold Reserve is een geweldige keuze als zoeter aperitief.

Talisker, opgericht in 1830, is de enige distilleerderij op het eiland Skye en werd opgericht door de broers Hugh en Kenneth MacAskill. Hoewel er zo nu en dan lichte accentverschuivingen zijn, blijft de samenhang tussen turfrook, maritieme invloeden, zoetheid en witte peper een gouden combinatie. Sinds de introductie van de Classic Malts in 1988 is Talisker terecht een favoriet van velen, die dit explosieve en complexe karakter op waarde schatten. Voor hen geldt deze whisky dan ook als “The golden spirit of Skye”. Nu met origineel Tumbler glas.

De distilleerderij, destijds gewoon Kinchie geheten, maar vanaf 1837 Glenkinchie, ligt vlakbij Edinburgh en wordt daarom ook wel ‘The Edinburgh Malt’ genoemd. De whisky uit de Lowland-regio staat vooral bekend om een licht en floraal karakter. Na uitvoerige tests meenden de distillateurs van de Classic Malts unaniem dat 2 jaar extra rijping in Amerikaans eiken de malt een vollere stijl geeft, maar het essentiële Lowland-karakter hierbij wel volledig blijft bewaard. Deze Schotse single malt wordt ook gebruikt als basis voor de Johnnie Walker expressies.

In the north of Scotland, not far from the small town of Brora and coast of the North Sea, stands Clynelish distillery. It was built in 1968 and stands right next to the former Brora distillery – which closed in 1983, but was founded from 1819. Clynelish matures in bourbon casks and is mainly used for blended whiskies. This Scotch single malt is a signature component of Johnnie Walker, 18 Y Gold Label. Only a few percent of production is released as single malt: a robust Highland whisky with a subtle smokiness.

The Oban distillery is located on the west coast of Scotland in an unusual location, both on the coast and in urban areas and is one of the country's smaller distilleries and just as old as the city in which it is located. Because the distillery is sandwiched between other buildings, it has never been modernised. You don't see Oban as a single malt that often, but he has a very high reputation with Connaisseurs. The Oban, 14 Y is part of the Classic Malts by Diageo.

Located 326 metres above sea level, the Dalwhinnie distillery is Scotland's highest distillery. In 1897 the distillery was built under the name Strathspey and in 1905 the name changed to Dalwhinnie. Due to its location, it used to be a resting place for cattle traders. The distillery has undergone little change in the more than 100 years of its existence. Dalwhinnie speaks of "The Gentle Spirit" when one talks about the malt. This 15-year-old Single Malt matured in Bourbon barrels.

Caol Ila was almost completely demolished in 1969 to make room for a newer, more modern distillery, which opened in 1974. The Caol Ila spirit ages almost exclusively in refill casks. This 12-year old Scotch single malt features a powerful flavor profile. On the nose and palate, the complex, smoky character shines. This whisky is at the heart of all Johnnie Walker blends, but also comes highly recommended for whisky drinkers that prefer the iconic Scotch single malts of Islay.

The Lagavulin distillery was founded in 1816 and is located on the southern coast of Islay, where the' Lords of the Isles' reigned centuries ago and their fortress kept out strangers. Lagavulin celebrated their 200th anniversary with this Limited Edition, inspired by the visit that Alfred Barnard made to the distillery in 1885, when he tasted a whisky which he considered to be "exceptionally fine". The whisky matured on refill barrels of American oak.

Three years after the construction of the Lochnagar Distillery at the great location at the foot of the Cairngorms Mountains, Queen Victoria moved into the adjacent Balmoral Castle. She visited the distillery. And so it happened that the distillery was given the title of "purveyor to the court". At the end of the 19th century a large part of the whisky was used for the blend Vat 69. Royal Lochnagar was very rare until 1980 and in the 60's it was even the most expensive whisky in Scotland.

Bulleit Bourbon is a Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey whose high-rye content and iconic frontier inspired bottle is a favourite among bartenders and mixologists across the world. When Tom Bulleit set out to make a bourbon unlike any other, he was inspired by a recipe created by his great-great grandfather Augustus Bulleit more than 175 years ago. Crafted using pure limestone-filtered water and charred American oak barrels for all of the colour and some of the flavour, Bulleit is especially high in rye content, giving it a bold, spicy character with a distinctively smooth, clean finish.

Suntory is one of Japan’s largest producers of whisky, as they own several different distilleries. The Suntory Toki is one of their new modern releases, and is a blended whisky created from Suntory’s three distilleries: Yamazaki, Hakushu and Chita. It works great as an easy sipping whisky to spend an evening with, but the Suntory Toki also does really well in a highball – a popular combination of whisky and soda that has captured the imagination of Japan.

Roe & Co Irish Whiskey is a new blend named after George Roe, an iconic Irish whiskey maker from the 19th century.

Vink Triple Wood is a Dutch whisky founded by the people behind the innovative Kever Genever. Produced at distillery De Tweekoppige Phoenix, Vink Whisky has aged for three to seven years. It’s not a malt whisky. Barley is the dominant grain, but rye, corn and wheat is also used. Vink Whisky matured in a first-fill ex-bourbon casks, a refill bourbon cask that was previously used to mature Scotch whisky and a former Bordeaux red wine cask made from French oak. Not your average cask recipe.

This whisky was first produced in 1951. At the time, the brand was known as ‘Black Label’, but after Jack Napier sampled the first batch, it was changed to Black Velvet. The whisky is known for its velvety smooth taste. Since 1991, Black Velvet has been producing the ‘Reserve’, a 10-year-old whisky made by blending rye with both matured and unmatured corn before the mixture is aged for 10 years, giving this whisky a nutty and spicy character. Black Velvet - Reserve, 10 Y Whisky is a delicious whisky from the Black Velvet brand. This whisky is distilled in beautiful Canada and bottled at 40% alcohol.

Bei diesem Whisky handelt es sich um einen Blend aus Grain und Single Malt, dessen Hersteller nicht angibt, woher er stammt. Der Name des Whiskys bedeutet Yama (Berg) und zakura (Kirschbaum). Die Yamazakura-Whiskys sind außerhalb Japans fast unmöglich zu finden.

Der Nikka Super Rare Old nimmt einen besonderen Platz im Sortiment dieser japanischen Whiskymarke ein. Er wurde erstmals 1962 vom Gründer Masataka Taketsuru kreiert, nicht lange nach dem Tod seiner schottischen Frau Rita, um seine tiefe Liebe zu ihr zu zeigen. Ohne ihre Hilfe hätte er seinen Traum, echten japanischen Whisky herzustellen, niemals verwirklichen können. Ein großer Teil des Nikka Super Rare Old besteht aus Malzwhisky, der in den legendären Brennereien Yoichi und Miyagikyo hergestellt wird.

Suntory ist einer der größten Whiskyproduzenten Japans, der mehrere Brennereien besitzt. Der Suntory Toki ist eine ihrer neuen modernen Veröffentlichungen und ist ein Blended Whisky, der aus den drei Brennereien von Suntory hergestellt wird: Yamazaki, Hakushu und Chita. Der Suntory Toki eignet sich hervorragend als einfacher Whisky für den Abend, aber auch als Highball - eine beliebte Kombination aus Whisky und Soda, die in Japan großen Anklang gefunden hat - macht er sich sehr gut.

Die Eigashima Distillery (oder White Oak Distillery) wurde 1888 gegründet, ursprünglich zur Herstellung von Sake. Einige Jahrzehnte später erhielt dieser japanische Hersteller eine Lizenz für Whisky, aber es dauerte bis 2007, bis sie ihren ersten Single Malt herausbrachten. Akashi ist der einzige Whisky, der von einem Toji (Meister in der Kunst der Sake-Herstellung) hergestellt wird. Akashi Red ist ein Blended Whisky, der aus Malz- und Getreidewhiskys hergestellt wird. Es ist auch sehr wahrscheinlich, dass es sich um einen jungen Whisky handelt, obwohl auf dem Etikett keine offizielle Altersangabe zu finden ist.

This is a traditional Irish whiskey of the same "family" as Connemara, the 4th whiskey in this edition. 2 times distilled for more flavor and character according to ancient recipe. The Kilbeggan distillery lies in the middle of Ireland in the eponymous town. It is the world's oldest working distillery and has a rich history. Therefore, it is more than worth a visit; you feel centuries back in time.

Connemara is made at Cooley, the 1987 distillery on the east coast of Cooley Peninsula, County Louth, to stop the decline of the Irish Whiskey. Connemara is an ode to the forgotten Whiskey's of Ireland, when the barley was still dried above a peat fire. Connemara is therefore smoky and is the only Irish peated Whiskey. Connemara won the most prizes of all Irish Whiskey's.

Even though the name might suggest otherwise, no writers were harmed in the making of this whiskey. Instead, the name Writer’s Tears draws inspiration from the many great Irish novelists, poets and playwrights from the 19th century. Writer’s Tears is a brand owned by the Irish Walsh Whiskey Distillery, but the whiskey is likely produced elsewhere. This Copper Pot expression is a marriage of Irish single pot still and Irish single malt whiskey. It’s triple distilled, non-peated and matured in charred American oak bourbon casks.

The Harvest, previously called Founder’s Reserve, is a blend of 70% Single Malt and 30% Single Pot Still. Single malt whisky is made from malted barley, while for single pot still a percentage of unmalted barley is also added. This may not sound like much of a difference, but it massively influences the taste of whisky. The Harvest is triple distilled and matured in ex-bourbon casks. It won a Gold Medal at The International Spirits Challenge in London, and was rated 93 points in Jim Murray’s Whisky Bible under it's former name.

How we create the best whisky tastings

Whisky is a versatile drink that is consumed and made all over the world. Where do you begin exactly? You are in good hands with the experts from Tasting Collection.

You don’t have to choose the best whiskies for your tasting yourself. That is done by the panel of experts from Tasting Collection. Each set is carefully composed for you, ensuring that you get the tastiest flavors in your glass. Not only the big whisky brands are included in a Whisky Tasting Collection, but also lesser-known gems are part of these whisky tastings.

Utilize the knowledge of the whisky experts

Benefit from the knowledge of experts so you can discover many different flavors. The whisky connoisseurs from Tasting Collection know why Scotch single malts from Speyside often taste different than Islay whiskies. They understand why a whisky cask is important and what flavors a certain type of cask imparts, as well as what other factors play a role.

What do you think about the climate, for example? It contributes to all the differences between whisky from America, Scotland, Ireland, Japan, and all those other countries where whisky comes from. At warm, tropical temperatures, whisky matures faster than in the temperate maritime climate of Scotland. You can taste that in the whiskies in a Tasting Collection.

Spot on for whisky lovers

Let Tasting Collection guide you. Care, attention to detail, and know-how are at the foundation of a Whisky Tasting Collection. That makes these whisky tastings a perfect gift: a spot on for anyone who loves whisky.
