About the Brand

SOMETHING INCREDIBLE HAPPENS WHEN A GROUP OF WOMEN COME TOGETHER TO CRAFT THEIR OWN ORIGINAL RECIPE FOR A DRINK THAT HAS BEEN PART OF OAXACAN LIFE FOR GENERATIONS.
Doña Vega is founded and produced by Mexican women who set out to make mezcal more accessible and approachable. For two years, through 73 recipes, 22 farms, and too many tastings to count, the Doña Vega team accomplished their goal of creating two exquisite varieties of mezcal. 

Doña Vega is produced in a small town outside Oaxaca – Santiago Matatlán by a family who has passed down the tradition for five generations.

Espadín is chosen for the large majority of all mezcal production in Mexico, however, Espadin Capon is quite rare. Doña Vega harvests the agave plant several years after it has ripened giving the final distillate a natural sweetness which is incomparable to other mezcals.

Hand-selected, handcrafted, and distilled to proof, our Doña Vega Espadín offers a mysterious and delicious drinking experience. Light smoke with undertones of fruit and a white pepper finish, yet remarkably smooth. Doña Vega Espadín is the perfect addition to any cocktail or perfect on its own.

Tasting Notes:

Bright and approachable with herbaceous notes. Roasted agave and min

The result is a mysterious and delicious drinking experience, with light smoke and a white pepper finish, yet remarkably smooth. Doña Vega Espadín is wildly versatile in cocktails and a true adventure on its own.

Blanton’s Gold Edition was created for discerning bourbon aficionados who appreciate exceptional smoothness and complexity in their bourbon whiskey. The nose is first marked by spicy rye and tobacco notes.  Caramel and honey follow soon after, mingled with dark fruit and citrus notes. The palate emulates the same complex nose with rye, tobacco, and honey at the forefront. Round and bold notes of charred oak and vanilla carry you through to an extremely long and harmonious finish. This bourbon consistently delivers on balance and character, on par with the world’s finest whiskey. Best served neat or with a splash of water. Bottled at 51.5% alcohol by volume.

Tasting Notes

Nose: Rye and Tobacco

Palate: Oak and Honey 

BACKGROUND
A small family farm on the southwest coast of Ireland and an Irish farmer with a very big dream.

The Scully family, the founders of Clonakilty distillery, have farmed this windswept coastal land for 9 successive generations. With the best resources that nature has to offer, prime land, pristine water and salt sea air, they had the perfect ingredients for a maritime distillery.

DISTILLERY
Located at the waterfront, in the heart of Clonakilty town, the three gleaming copper pot stills are an inspiring sight to behold.

It is here that we distill our award-winning new make, alongside our visitor experience and shop. This is where the magic starts, and is the home of Clonakilty whiskey.

BARLEY FIELDS
We grow our own heritage barley on our family farm in the shadow of the Galley Head lighthouse.

Centuries of sea mist, soft rain and ocean spray provide a complexity to the soil that permeates through to each individual grain.

OUR ENVIRONMENT
We are privileged to support Whale and Dolphin Conservation in their worldwide quest to protect these majestic creatures.

In addition, we are proud members of Origin Green an independently certified commitment to sustainable corporate practice. 

The Distillers at Clonakilty have hand selected an 8 year old grain and 10 year old triple distilled malt to create this first single batch Clonakilty Irish whiskey. 

TASTING NOTES

Nose: Soft spices, vanilla, fresh cut grass, slightly perfumed, riple apple/pear notes. Fresh leather tones. 

Palate: Warm spices - cubed pepper and ginger. Fresh cut grass, hazelnut and almond notes. 

Finish: Well-balanced Irish whiskey with spices lingering on the palate.

In the 1830’s our Woodford County distillery was the setting for a series of discoveries and innovative practices that today define the bourbon industry. For this 2021 Master’s Collection release Master Distiller Chris Morris and Assistant Master Distiller, Elizabeth McCall have drawn upon that rich history and their own interests for inspiration.

In Kentucky, a fermented grain mash is traditionally called “distiller’s beer”. Distillation converts this “beer” into a spirit that will become a “Whiskey” once barreled.

This Master’s Collection is our take on crafting a spirit that exhibits the flavors of a classic beer style, in this case a rich, roasted malty stout.

“Our distillery building was constructed by Irish stonemasons in 1838. That, plus the fact that we distill in the “Irish” style with triple pot stills inspired us to mash and distill an Irish style stout beer.” – Elizabeth McCall

The result is the Fall 2021 Master’s Collection release named Five-Malt Stouted Mash, a rich and darkly robust expression of Woodford Reserve Kentucky Straight Malt Whiskey. 

TASTING NOTES

APPEARANCE: Antique Orange

NOSE: Dusky notes of roasted malt, toasted nuts all sweetened with hints of milk chocolate and brightened with a touch of orange zest, spearmint and warm baking spices. Oak, cherry cobbler and shortbread round out the malt and barrel influence.

TASTE: Malty with toasted hazelnut and cocoa highlights atop a layer of baked fruit, crisp spice and zest bounce about the depths.

FINISH: Malt and cocoa notes linger on.

The addition of a distill-proof Blanco tequila, a 110-proof spirit ideally suited as a foundation for building authentic cocktails and for enjoying as an agave digestif, elevates the El Luchador portfolio. This high proof Blanco is robust and complex with notes of fresh agave, bright citrus a slightly smoky saline finish.

Roasted agave, bright citrus and vanilla are the hallmarks of El Luchador Reposado which is the second stage of El Luchador’s evolution and where it gains complexity and finesse from aging for four to six months in white oak barrels.

The sea is everything! Inspired by the invigorating coastal air and the endless mysteries of the sea, HENDRICK’S Master Distiller Ms. Lesley Gracie considered a bold possibility: expressing the glorious sensory delights of the sea, in a gin. And so began HENDRICK’S NEPTUNIA.

HENDRICK’S NEPTUNIA is a limited release that captures the magic of the sea, in a gin. Ms. Lesley Gracie's creation is as refreshing as her muse, the mighty waves that lash the Ayrshire coast. Infused with an exquisite blend of locally sourced coastal botanicals and with a remarkable crisp citrus finish.

Our first maritime release, the fresh sea-song notes characteristic of native coastal flora vigorously emboldens HENDRICK’S signature combination of Cucumber and Rose, culminating in an astonishingly crisp citrus finish.

HENDRICK’S NEPTUNIA GIN is a captivating base for classic gin cocktails. HENDRICK’S NEPTUNIA lends the gin & tonic a refreshing seaside spin; adds fathoms of coastal botanicals to the Bayside Sparkling Sangria; and enhances the citrus zing of the Gin Gimlet.

Do not be secretive about your own HENDRICK’S NEPTUNIA adventures! Share a photograph, drawing or etching of yourself & your HENDRICK’S NEPTUNIA cocktail. Go on, we dare you! Bizarre costumes and names (for you or the cocktails) are optional. #HendricksNeptunia

STORY AND INSPIRATION (Written by Neil Giraldo)

When I first began playing guitar, I realized that if I could learn to play three basic chords — the roots of the blues — feel their meaning, and perfect their sound, I could have a career in music. I also recognized that the beauty of the perfect melody, the arrangement of those notes, and the vibrations of those tones, could impact one’s mood and elicit powerful emotions.

One night as I was sipping bourbon in my studio with friends, the conversation naturally turned to music, sound and composition. We began to wonder how blending the “tones” of various whiskeys together could create a unique “harmony” of flavor.

We knew bourbon’s role in Americana music and the American dream. We knew we loved it.  We knew that the blues and the “three chord” progression were a blank score that we could compose our own masterpiece with. Truth, heart, and integrity.

But we wanted to do more than just create another whiskey. We wanted to shake up the industry yet maintain respect for the tradition and legacy of heritage whiskeys. To look at the process differently. To create a taste profile comparable to the finest whiskeys in the world. To craft a new classic whiskey with the same precision and passion with which I create music. The product we created is Three Chord. The process with which it is created we call “Perfectly Tuned Taste.”

Our Tennessee Straight Whiskey is light yet flavorful, distilled and aged at least 36 months. Using the maple charcoal filtration process, we have refined the whiskey to a “Perfectly Tuned Taste.” Just as a three-chord progression is at the foundation of great music, Three Chord Tennessee Straight Whiskey is at the heart of a great spirit.
