Spirits
Belvedere Vodka
Almond and vanilla give the aroma a soft, polished opening, with white pepper adding a clean point of contrast. The palate is subtly sweet and velvety, showing the gentle grain character of Polish rye without losing precision. A creamy texture carries the almond and spice through the middle. The finish is exceptionally smooth and clean, leaving light vanilla, pepper and restrained warmth.
El Tequileño Reposado Tequila
Sweet agave and vanilla lead the aroma. Cooked agave anchors the palate, with oak developing through the middle after three months of rest in American barrels. The agave character remains at the centre as vanilla and oak come together around it. A dry finish closes the profile, carrying cooked agave, vanilla and a measured trace of American oak.
400 Conejos Espadín Joven Mezcal
Herbal smoke leads the aroma, with fennel seed, sourdough and roasted corn adding savoury depth. The palate is smooth and vivid, moving through grilled corn, melted butter, smoked herbs and sweet asparagus. Agave sweetness keeps the profile rounded while smoke gives it structure rather than weight. The finish is warm and persistent, leaving roasted grain, herbs and a measured earthy note.
Brugal 1888 Gran Reserva Rum
Red and dried fruit open the aroma, with raisins and dates joined by cinnamon and oak spice. Toffee, vanilla and peach follow on the palate, alongside cocoa and clove. Double ageing in bourbon and sherry casks frames those fruit and spice notes. Honey appears toward the close, and the finish is long and elegant, carrying cocoa, oak spice and dried fruit.
Clear Creek Muscat Grappa 375 mL
Aromatic and lifted, this style of grappa leans into the naturally perfumed character of Muscat grapes. Intense notes of orange blossom, ripe peach, lychee and candied citrus peel rise from the glass, with a touch of honeyed sweetness. The palate is supple yet vibrant, balancing floral intensity with fresh fruit and a gentle, warming texture.
Sibona Distillato d’Uva Uvedilanga
Fresh grape and delicate floral notes open the aroma, followed by soft orchard fruit and a light muscat-like lift. The palate is notably smooth, rounded and gentle, with clear fruit character carried by a refined texture rather than overt sweetness. Subtle floral detail returns through the middle. The finish is clean and pleasant, leaving fresh fruit and a quiet aromatic echo.
Cordero di Montezemolo Grappa di Barolo
Toasted hazelnut and vanilla rise from a deep amber spirit, joined by caramel, dried rose and warm spice. The palate is full-bodied and silky, carrying pronounced nutty richness through gentle wood and a rounded, warming texture. Four years in small casks give the flavours depth and polish. The finish is persistent and elegant, leaving hazelnut, vanilla, spice and integrated oak.
Nardini Grappa Riserva
Warm oak and subtle sweetness lead a smooth, rounded aroma, followed by dried fruit, vanilla and a gentle toasted note. The palate is elegant and softly textured, with wood ageing adding spice and quiet complexity while the grape spirit remains clear and lively. A measured warmth builds through the middle. The finish is clean and persistent, carrying sweet spice, polished oak and a faint nutty echo.
M. Chapoutier Fine Eau-de-Vie des Côtes du Rhône
Clean and intensely aromatic, with white fruit, dried flowers and a clear mineral lift. The palate is powerful yet precise, carrying concentrated fruit through warming alcohol and a firm, dry texture. A single-pass distillation preserves the character of its Rhône material rather than polishing it away. The finish is long and contemplative, leaving florals, stone, fruit and persistent heat.
Giffard Cognac & Caramel Liqueur
Arbutus Distillery Baba Yaga Genuine Absinthe
Sweet fennel and earthy anise lead the aroma, with mint, lemon balm and a restrained citrus note adding freshness. The palate is intensely herbal yet composed, combining black-liquorice depth with cooling mint and the firmer bitterness of wormwood. Water softens the texture and opens the botanicals. The finish remains long and aromatic, carrying anise, herbs and light citrus with measured warmth.
Clear Creek 8 Year Eau de Vie de Pomme 375 mL
Pure, expressive and beautifully crafted, this apple eau-de-vie captures the essence of orchard fruit with precision. Aromas of fresh-cut apple, pear skin and delicate floral notes are lifted by subtle oak influence from extended ageing. The palate is silky and refined, balancing bright, crisp apple fruit with hints of honey, spice and gentle wood, leading to a long, clean and quietly warming finish. A contemplative, Calvados-inspired spirit with both clarity and depth.
Vila das Rainhas Ginja d’Óbidos Sour Cherry Liqueur
Intense cherry and wild-cherry aromas lead immediately, showing ripe fruit alongside a darker, slightly earthy edge. The palate is creamy and rounded, with concentrated sour-cherry flavour and a deeper fruit tone adding definition through the middle. Whole cherries reinforce the fruit character without obscuring its freshness. The finish is long and unmistakably cherry-driven, lingering with velvety richness and measured warmth.
