Ki No Bi (The Beauty of the Seasons) is inspired by tradition & is distilled, blended & bottled in Kyoto. The gin is made in a recognisable dry style but with a distinct Japanese accent. Ki No Bi Kyoto Dry Gin is created with Japanese botanicals such as yellow yuzu from the north of Kyoto Prefecture, hinoki wood chips (Japanese cypress), bamboo, gyokuro tea from the Uji region & green sansh (Japanese peppercorn) berries. ...

Ki No Bi Sei, based on a traditional navy strength version & bottled at 54.5%, isnt simply Ki No Bi at a higher strength. The production method is the same as Ki No Bi: 11 botanicals are grouped by flavour into what we call the 6 Elements which are macerated & distilled separately, before being blended together with Fushimi water. However, the ratios are different in order to achieve the right balance; that higher concentration gives SEI its power from which the name derives. Strong & powerful at 54.5%, Sei can be used for a range of cocktails, being especially recommended in a Gin & Tonic for which it was awarded an IWSC Outstanding Gold Medal in 2018. ...

Following a deconstruction tasting of the 6 Elements of Ki No Bi, for many Japanese bartenders, the tea element was the most popular &, as a result, we were inspired to create Ki No Tea. Horii Shichimeien, growing & blending teas for 140 years, created a blend of gyokuro & tencha teas exclusively for The Kyoto Distillery to provide a sweet & creamy flavour. Bottled at 45.1%, Ki No Tea's packaging contains a design from a new hangi, created especially for our gin by Kira Karac. ...

Kilbeggan is Gaelic for 'little church'. Nose: Traces of sweet oloroso plus some sweet malt that over powers the clean grain. Taste: There is an abundant lushness, where the malt moves freely around the palate, gathering honey notes along the way. Finish: The dryness purveys with some genuine oaky tones coming through. Serving Suggestions: Kilbeggan Irish Whiskey can be served neat, on the rocks or with water to taste. It is also an excellent ingredient for cocktails & perfect with mixers. Kilbeggan Irish Whiskey first appeared as a John Locke's brand over 100 years ago & was sold successfully until Locke's distillery ceased production in the 1950's. Locke's distillery is the oldest continuously licensed whiskey distillery in the world dating back to 1757. Drawing on centuries of tradition & craft, Kilbeggan Irish Whiskey is distilled from the purest clear water & the finest malted Irish barley & maize, gently matured for long years in oak casks in the ancient warehouses in Kilbeggan & skilfully blended to create a whiskey of unique smoothness, character & balance. Cooley relaunched the Kilbeggan brand in 1994 & it has had continued success in the market place. Kilbeggan now has a new & exciting packaging. ...

Finish: Layers of cooked red fruits, vanilla, peat & lasting intensity. Am Brach, Gaelic for the mess, might seem a strange name for a limited edition single malt. That would be if you were not aware of the story behind this unique bottling; the delicious consequence of an incident in 2014 where two different Kilchoman expressions were mistakenly combined. The unnamed Stillman, whilst vatting casks, accidentally mixed Machir Bay (a core expression from Kilchoman) & Port Matured Kilchoman causing Islay Heads, General Manager, to describe the resulting whisky as Am Brach. The name stuck. A true one-off, never to be repeated, Am Brach has a somewhat complicated nine-year maturation, a vatting of bourbon & sherry matured Kilchoman combined with port cask matured in 2014, the whisky was then filled back in bourbon barrels for a further six years ahead a six-month finish in ruby port casks. ...

- Best in Class. Bottled once a year, each release contains more mature whisky each year allowing Kilchoman fans to follow the development of the unique Kilchoman malt as it matures.
