Laphroig Single Malt Scotch 10 Year
Laphroig (pronounced Lah-froyg) is not a beginner’s Scotch. If you are thinking of taking up Scotch, start somewhere else. But if you really like the rich, smoky, peaty flavor characteristic of Island Scotches, you might want to give Laphroig a try. This would also make an excellent gift for the Scotch lover on your holiday list.
The Singleton of Glendullan
This is a brand new Single Malt Scotch; that is if 12 year old Scotch can be called new. Aged in Sherry and Bourbon casks it exhibits a woody aroma with notes of citrus and raisins and a hint of vanilla and honey. Priced at just $35.99, it is an outstanding value for a single malt scotch.
Cîroc Vodka
Cîroc Vodka. is a premium vodka manufactured in France. It most distinguishing feature is that it is derived from grapes, rather than the grain or potatoes more commonly used. The vodka is distilled six times in a combination of column and pot stills for an extra smooth taste. You may have seen the TV commercials featuring Sean (Puff Daddy) Combs. The spots that ran in December had Puff Daddy calling Cîroc the "Official Vodka of New Year's."
Kalashnikov Vodka
In the Soviet Union, they called this military vodka. The military got the best of things, and this was one of them. Vodka Kalashnikov was first distilled in the home town of General Mikhail T. Kalashnikov, designer of the AK-47 Rifle. This vodka is based on a select recipe approved by the General. Stoli is what Americans think Russians drink. Kalashnikov is what they really drink. We put ours in the freezer and drank it straight for that true Russian experience. Even at 82 proof, it was exceptionally smooth.
Amarula Cream Liqueur
Produced from the fruit of the African Marula Tree this exotic cream liqueur has hints of caramel, chocolate, vanilla and butterscotch. It can be consumed the way you would any other cream. Drink it straight, on the rocks, or in your coffee. $22.99/750 ml.
