Or Speyside or Campbeltown? Or perhaps Lowland?
On second thought, why choose? At My Sherry &more, we make it easy to try them all by having whiskies from all five Scottish whisky producing regions right here under one roof.
Of course, we all have a particular favorite or two, but right now we’d like to showcase 2 lesser known single malts in the $40-$60 range.
Springbank Ten is matured in sherry and bourbon casks and is produced by 1 of the only 2 distilleries in Campbeltown; the Springbank Distillery. It has a range of aromas and tastes of spices with a salty tang. $54.00 http://www.springbankwhisky.com/springbank
Old Pulteney is known as the genuine Maritime Malt. The distillery is one of the northernmost in the Scottish Highlands overlooking the North Sea. Aged in ex-bourbon casts it has hints of brine with some sweetness and the finish is sea air with a touch of smoke. $45.00 http://www.oldpulteney.com
Both are Double Gold award winning and won’t break the bank.
