Photo by Whisky aficionados, rejoice! The latest batch of new drinks launches has arrived, and it’s packed with an impressive array of whiskies from distilleries around the world. From a limited edition 24-year-old Scotch to a unique cigar-inspired American single malt, these new releases are sure to tantalize your taste buds.
New Whisky Releases to Try This Summer
One of the most exciting releases this month is the Glengoyne White Oak, a Scotch whisky that breaks away from the traditional sherry maturation. Instead, it’s been aged in American first fill bourbon and virgin oak casks, resulting in a unique flavor profile. If you’re looking for something truly special, the Loch Lomond 50-year-old single malt is a must-try. With only 100 bottles available, this is a rare opportunity to experience one of the oldest and most prestigious whiskies on the market.
Meanwhile, in the world of American single malts, Cedar Ridge Distillery has unveiled its latest release, The QuintEssential: The Untitled Cigar Malt Project. This innovative whisky is inspired by the rich experience of smoking cigars, with bold notes of tobacco, subtle hints of smoke, and a balanced character. Finished in a blend of casks, including first-fill amontillado sherry, Madeira-inspired wine, and new French and American oak, this whisky is a true game-changer.
But that’s not all - Daftmill, a small Scottish distillery, has released a stunning new cask-strength expression that’s been making waves in the whisky community. This 12-year-old single malt has been aged in 15 first-fill ex-bourbon barrels and boasts a complex flavor profile with notes of honey, vanilla, apricot, and a hint of leather and oak.
