The Whiskey Exchange has collaborated with Signatory Vintage and Jamaican distillery Worthy Park…
These aged rums from Worthy Park showcase the brand’s signature tropical character, enhanced by unique cask finishes.
Worthy Park 2015 8 Year Old Calvados Cask
ABV 64%, £99.95 The Whisky Exchange A fascinating fusion of Jamaican pot still rum and French influence, this limited edition spent five years in American oak before maturing for three years in a Calvados barrel. The result is an explosion of tropical fruit intertwined with notes of baked apple, pear, and warming oak spice. A brilliant balance of boldness and elegance.
Worthy Park 2017 6 Year Old Bourbon Cask
ABV 54%, £89.95 The Whisky Exchange For lovers of funkier, high-ester rums, this single bourbon cask-aged expression offers a complex taste profile. Six years in Jamaica’s tropical climate have imparted layers of toasted coconut, fudge, and vanilla, alongside the signature overripe fruit, tar, and light smokiness that make the distillery a favourite among rum enthusiasts.
Green Spot 2013 10 Year Old Bourbon Cask
ABV 56.6%, £180 The Whisky Exchange This exclusive Green Spot release arrives just in time for St Patrick’s Day, offering a rare single-cask Irish whiskey experience. Aged for a decade in a bourbon barrel, it bursts with orchard fruit and citrus zest, complemented by a backbone of rich woodland spice. Limited to just 237 bottles, this is a must-have for collectors and fans of Irish whiskey alike.
The Whisky Exchange has once again partnered with Signatory Vintage to present a selection of single malt Scotch whiskies matured in fortified wine casks, delivering depth and complexity.
Whitlaw 2013 11 Year Old First Fill PX Sherry Hogshead
ABV 58%, £89.95 The Whisky Exchange A subtly smoky dram from Orkney, this whisky captivates with aromas of dates, maraschino cherries, buttercream, and dried figs. The palate unfolds with notes of crab-apple jelly, cranberries, and hazelnuts.
Edradour 2011 13 Year Old First Fill Marsala Hogshead
ABV 58.9%, £99.95 The Whisky Exchange A bold and spicy expression, this Highland whisky exudes rugged charm. Aromas of charred panettone, golden syrup, and basketball leather lead into a palate rich with cinnamon, liquorice, golden raisins, and mead. A truly distinctive dram.
Blair Athol 2011 13 Year Old First Fill Ruby Port Finish
ABV 57.8%, £99.95 The Whisky Exchange A whisky of substance, this expression offers an intriguing mix of savoury and sweet. Aromas of venison jerky and porcini mushrooms evolve into a decadent palate of dark chocolate, treacle, strawberry laces, salted toffee, and cherry reduction. Robust and refined.
