REYKA VODKA IS AS UNIQUE AS THE LAND THAT INSPIRES IT There are only six Carter-Head Stills in the world and ours is the only one used to make vodka.Through its labyrinth of copper pipes, we distill a grain spirit made from the finest wheat and barley, then filter it through lava rocks to imbue a distinctive flavor. As the distillate starts to flow from the still, it’s my skill to know when to capture its heart – the purest part of the vodka. The final stage is adding Icelandic water to bring our vodka down to 80 proof. Our water comes from the Grabok Spring, which runs through a 4,000 year old lava field. We put the essence of iceland into every bottle. We truly believe you can taste it with every glass.
ICONOCLAST
Hendrick’s is an iconoclastically produced small batch gin distilled in Ayrshire, Scotland. Our unusual distillation process combined with our oddly delicious set of infusions yields a one-of-a-kind gin that is passionately loved by a tiny yet growing handful of individuals all over the world. No other gin tastes like it because no other gin is made like it.
QUALITY NOT COMPROMISE
Winter lays snow on hills rising over pagoda roofs. Summer colours local fields
barley-gold. All year round spring water bubbles in the glen. Alive as that day in 1886 when our founder William Grant laid the first stones that built one of the oldest family-owned Scotch distilleries. The Glenfiddich Distillery in Dufftown, Scotland, in the glen of the River Fiddich. Glenfiddich means ʻValley of the
Deer' in Gaelic, hence the presence of a stag symbol on Glenfiddich bottles which has now become the world's best-selling single malt. It is sold in 180 countries, and accounts for about 35% of single malt sales.
CRAFTSMANSHIP
The exceptional quality of The Balvenie is due to the fact that the Balvenie Distillery retains and nurtures a high level of craftsmanship that other malt whisky producers no longer employ: nowhere else will you find a distillery that still grows its own barley, still malts in its own traditional floor maltings and still employs coopers to tend the casks and a coppersmith to maintain the stills.
SEA-WORTHY
This is man stuff. Filled with the grit, romance and heartbreak that drives some men to do what most would not. There’s a tension about port cities filled with men who consider themselves on a mission to have a good time and return with evidence of such. And it’s drawn into all of Sailor Jerry’s tattoos. Keep your eyes out for his work, not in galleries,
but in bars and on the street. If you find yourself strangely captivated by the girl on an old man’s arm, we suggest you go ahead and offer to buy the guy a drink of Sailor Jerry Navy Rum. Hopefully, he’ll be so impressed with your taste in rum, he won’t punch you out and maybe he’ll tell you some stories.
