Douglas Laing & Co have been in the business for over 60 years. Known in the beginning for being master blenders - the founder decided in 1998 that "some of these malts were too good to blend" and thus began their single malt selections such as the Old Malt Cask line and the very exclusive Old and Rare "Platinum" line - this is the best of the best or "ne plus ultra". Always rare and limited - never cheap.

A family company specialising in acquiring and bottling the rarest, finest privately-distilled Cognacs directly from the producers themselves.

Kilchoman, (pronounced kilhoman) is the first new distillery built on Islay in 124 years. It was established in 2005 and is a farm distillery growing their own Barley (quite rare nowadays). Kilchoman gives everyone the opportunity to see all that is best in the grass roots traditions of malt whisky distilling - from barley to bottle. Pure Islay and is potentially a legend in the making. Though still very young it is already starting to gather a cult following - including us!

Samaroli Whisky & Rum. Established in 1968. Samaroli is one of the legendary independent bottlers whose older bottlings have now become some of the most highly rated and sought after whiskeys of all time. Samaroli is also recently known for their vatted malts - "No Age" is a must try!
