About this deal

Better known for its gins, Spirit Works also makes wheat whiskey and rye. While just 250 bottles of the bonded rye are being launched right now, the distillery is able to release more as needed, and may expand distribution to New York later in the year. "We've got plenty of barrels of it!" says co-founder and brand director Ashby Marshall. Incidentally, the name Grooves comes from the shape in the inside of the wine barrels after they’ve been re-charred. Ardbeg Grooves - Regular Release We may sell, license, transfer, assign or in any other way dispose of the Service (including Members) to any third party without any notification to you, e.g. (but without limitation) in connection with any reorganization, restructuring, merger or sale, or other transfer of assets. Our Service is an online platform which provides Members with information (e.g. bottle facts, market-indices, market values and prices) on (mostly) whisky and allows Members to add information to the platform. We do not sell, nor does the Service provide any option to buy, any alcoholic products. Doc's Wine, Spirits & More in Memphis is creating its own brand of whiskey. This first release is a single-barrel bourbon made at an undisclosed distillery in Middle Tennessee (any guesses?), made of 84% corn, 8% malted barley, and 8% rye.

From the experimental folk at Ardbeg comes this intensely mellow dram, produced using our grooviest casks ever. Smoked spices combine with distant bonfires fading into a mellow haze of apples and smoked pear. Woody Creek Distillery in Basalt, Colorado is releasing its first straight bourbon. Aged for at least 4 years, according to the label, the whiskey is made with 70% Colorado corn, with the remaining 30% comprised of Colorado rye, wheat, and barley. To meet the cancellation deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right to cancel before the cancellation period has expired. Taste - A powerfully salty mouthfeel drifts into sweet vibes of treacle toffee, vanilla popcorn, salted fruits (peaches) with soot and tar. Again, those distinctive savoury notes of smoky BBQ, paprika and mustard spice, fading into an unexpected haze of smoked pears and apples, almost like pear cider. The Service has been prepared by us solely for information purposes to Members and the Service is based on information we consider reliable and we obtain the contents of the Service from a number of different third party sources (including Contributions), but we do not endorse, support, represent, warrant or guarantee the completeness, truthfulness, accuracy, or reliability of the Services and any information therein.Nose: Freshly squeezed orange, simmering smoke, distance butterscotch, and candied lemon. Lots of salty brine on the exhale especially. Lavender is there, but it comes and goes. I’ve not always tasted Ardbeg committee release with the regular release side-by-side, but the main difference tends to be booziness. That tends to be a biting win for me. These two are so similar. I get more wine-notes on the committee release which makes it more fun on the nose, but it’s a little too sharp on the palate. A little too hot. A few drops of water settle the drink, but at that point, you may as well drink the regular release. We normally deliver products between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. Monday to Friday, unless by prior arrangement. We do not offer delivery on Saturdays, Sundays, or bank holidays, and we may have a reduced delivery schedule at various times of the year and during peak times, e.g., Christmas, we may have extended delivery dates. No partnership, joint venture, agency, or employment relationship is created as a result of your use of the Service. If any provision of these Terms is held invalid, the remainder of the Terms shall continue in full force and effect.

There’s much folklore between why there are two releases. The committee release is certainly boozier by a few percentages of alcohol. It’s also, in some cases, believed to be the more authentic batch of the two that includes more difficult-to-find casks of whisky, where as the regular releases is a higher (but still not high) volume product and thus a little more muted in flavour. Whatever the truth of it is, committee releases are intended to be “more special.” And more expensive. Certainly on the secondary market.Pennington Distilling Co. in Nashville has unveiled its second release, following last fall's Davidson Reserve Rye Whiskey. Davidson Reserve Four Grain blends Pennington's Tennessee whiskey, bourbon, and rye, each of which is aged for at least three years. The "four grains" are corn (used in the bourbon and Tennessee whiskey), wheat (used in the bourbon), rye (used in the Tennessee whiskey and rye), and malted barley (used in the bourbon and rye). Each straight whiskey is aged separately before being blended together. If we decide not to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms, such decision shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

Whiskybase B.V. (“Whiskybase”, “we” or “us”, company details below) offers a whisky enthusiasts online platform that provides its members access to the most comprehensive, transparent and trusted resource of whisky bottles and allows and stimulates its members to contribute information about whisky bottles to the platform (“Service”). Pennington plans to make this Four Grain whiskey a regularly available release, although each batch's blend will vary. This first batch used ten barrels. The distillery uses full-size (53-gallon) barrels to age its whiskeys and distills them all in a 500-gallon pot still. You are responsible for all activities through your account.

A special 2018 Ardbeg Day edition that followed the exclusive Ardbeg Committee one (at 51.6% proof), bottled in January of the same year and which finished its (undisclosed) maturation in barrels that contained (unspecified) red wine, heavily charred causing deep grooves on the wood.

Given the name, I was expecting a lysergic experience, but instead I found myself with a healthy hippy smoking seaweed cigarettes. Almost an introductory whisky, which doesn’t want to disturb, even too much peace and quiet, but then again, that’s the name, isn’t it? But from a special and limited edition (and expensive, although it’s not a weighty element in giving an opinion) I expect much more. Whiskybase B.V. is the Dutch private limited liability company, having its statutory seat in Rotterdam, The Netherlands and its office at Zwaanshals 530, 3035 KS Rotterdam, The Netherlands. Whiskybase B.V. is registered with the Dutch Chamber of Commerce under no. 52072819. J. Rieger & Co.'s flagship Kansas City Whiskey blends in sherry—a practice that's legal if the amount is less than 2.5% and the whiskey is not labeled "straight." It's no surprise, then, that the distillery's special-edition release would also include sherry influence, this time from botas, very old sherry soleracasks that rarely get used for whiskey maturation. As noted, Rieger used the botas for its inaugural Monogram release last year as well; read more about what makes them special here.
