Here are some handpicked bottles just for you from around the world
1. Chivas XV
Chivas XV, a 15-year-old blend, was intended for a high-energy, celebratory occasion. The eye-catching gold whisky bottle will be the ideal wedding gift for your loved ones because it stands out from the crowd during moments of celebration.
2. The Glenfiddich 15-year-old
Glenfiddich 15 Year Old is a single malt whiskey that was originally introduced in 1998. Whiskies aged in sherry, bourbon, and fresh oak casks are combined in the Solera system. The Solera Vat, which is always kept at least half full, produces a harmonious whiskey with deep layers of warm spice, honey, and fruit that gets deeper and more nuanced with each passing year.
3. Bowmore x Aston Martin 12-year-old
If your partner enjoys fast automobiles and limited-edition single malts, this is one they’ll adore. Bowmore’s existing 18-year-old whisky has Aston Martin-designed labels, which is a remarkable concept that combines an iconic whisky and a legendary car in a bottle.
4. Hibiki 21-year-old
Suntory Whisky Hibiki 21-Year-Old blended whisky is widely regarded as the pinnacle of ‘The Art of Japanese Whisky.’ It is a superb mix of different malt and grain whiskies aged over 21 years. It is Japan’s most highly recognised blended whisky, celebrating an unsurpassed art of blending, superb craftsmanship, and elegance — a perfect wedding present for everyone. Hibiki, which means “harmony,” is regarded as a sign of Japanese craftsmanship due to its long history, making it one of the world’s rarest whiskies.
5. Yamazaki 55-year-old
Yamazaki 55-Year-Old is a combination of rare single malts that were produced in 1960 and matured in Mizunara barrels. Suntory’s primary men, creator Shinjiro Torii (in 1960) and Suntory’s second master blender Keizo Saji, supervise the distillation process (in 1964). The Yamazaki is a serious limited-edition selection that is the ideal present for any whisky connoisseur.
6. Glenmorangie Grand Vintage 1996
Glenmorangie Grand Vintage Malt 1996 is aged entirely in first-fill barrels and has a superb smoothness from the wood, intertwined with a deep concentration of the spirit’s fruity, flowery influences. The predominant flavours surround you with a zesty, citrus mouthfeel, with a rush of oranges and lemons, softened by ripples of vanilla and fudge, and subtle notes of ginger, sweet chilli, and wood.
7. Jameson Black Barrel
Charring is a time-honoured process of energizing barrels and enhancing their flavour. Jameson Black Barrel was created as a tribute to the coopers who add extra charring to their bourbon barrels to unveil their incredible depth and complexity. Butterscotch, fudge, and creamy toffee notes are enhanced by the time spent ageing in these barrels. The early glints on the tongue reveal a plethora of nutty aromas, as well as a silky sweetness of spice and vanilla.
8. Wild Turkey 81
Wild Turkey, a Kentucky-based bourbon, is one of the latest products to be launched in India as part of the company’s ongoing global expansion. Wild Turkey 81 has an amber-bronze colour and a beautiful aroma of honey and caramel. It begins on the palate with the signature Wild Turkey sweetness, then transitions to flavours of maple and vanilla before closing with a crisp, toasted aftertaste.
