At the general tasting sessions in the warehouse there were some very good drams (totally spoiled for choice of course). Tried a couple of the classics for the first time, such as Longrow 18 and the 30yo CL, but I was also impressed with one of the Springbank 14yo. All looked like official bottlings, but 3 different strengths. I've never seen those before and tried a little research on getting home (as nothing on sale in the shop). Not much to see, apart from a batch for Jazz - 1 of 600. Can anyone tell me anymore about these bottles and are there any plans to release any more. Thanks

I absolutely 110% recommend that you buy all (3) of these bottles and compare them all. They are absolutly disappearing very very rapidly...especially since I usually buy 1-2 cases at a time.

I added the Ebay auction on the other comment. That auction is a very good price and has all that you are looking for. I have nothing to do with that auction, but I know that the price is great.

Want to try 1-bottle at a time????? go here>

Cheers!

I am in Love with the Oloroso Sherry.
I love the Sweet Sheery coupled with the 55% ABV!
BANG BISCUIT!

Cheers Jeff - thanks for the info. I am based in the UK so I guess that explains why I haven't seen those expressions before! There were 3 or 4 versions on the go at the Open day. I only tried 1, (as had a heavy tasting session already booked) but it was very nice and I'd be interested to buy a bottle if available here ...

I recommend the Olorosso or the Fino or Both....

I can ship them to you.

You would pay through Paypal, if you use it.
