Wednesday June 22
Single Malt Scotch & Cigars

Featuring:
1 - Lagavulan 16 year old Islay - $60
A 16 year old distinctive and powerful Islay malt. It is deeply smoky and peaty with a velvety, complex finish.
In the twelfth century, Islay became the domain of the Lords of the Isles and saw the foundation of the clan Macdonald.
The clan seat, Dunyvaig Castle, stands sentinel over Lagavulin Bay and it was from here in 1314
that over 1.000 Islay warriors embarked to fight for Robert the Bruce at Bannockburn.
2 - Cragganmore 12 year old Spayside - $42
A 12 year old elegant, sophisticated Speyside with the most complex aroma of any malt.
Astonishingly fragrant with sweetish notes and a smoky maltiness on the finis.
Mr John Smith founded Cragganmore distillery in 1869 in the mountain district, high on the River Spey where it meets the Avon and the Livet.
The distillery never closed for even a fortnight in any year up until the summer of 1901, when reconstruction began.
3 - Dalmore Cigar Malt Highland - $36
The strong malty flavours tantalise the tongue - covering it with a cloak of classic flavours which linger long in the mouth.
This outstanding taste is a perfect accompaniment with the finest of tobacco - both compliment each other.
