The Scotch Malt Whisky Society has produced a special Father’s Day pack featuring three 50ml bottles of limited-edition single cask single malt Scotch whiskies. Single cask whiskies are bottled straight from casks without being diluted by water or having artificial colourings added. The 50ml bottles are also more generous than those in many other packs (typically only 30ml)! The Society doesn’t reveal what distilleries the whiskies are from, instead each bottle gets a name that describes how it tastes and some tasting notes with more detailed description of the flavours in the whisky.
The Whisky Exchange has launched Dad’s Dram, an exclusive blend of fine malt whiskies, for fathers only. Bottled at 56% ABV, this rich, smooth whisky balances fruit, spice and sweetness, offering notes of apple, cinnamon and creamy toffee, with hints of vanilla custard and raisins.
