Jura seven wood whisky
As the name suggests, this single malt Scotch from the island of the same name is matured in seven different types of oak, including first-fill American oak and several different types of French; Vosges, Bertranges, Jupilles, Allier, Tronçais & Limousin barrels, to be exact. It also follows a recent trend for Scotch distillers to move away from age statements on bottles with new ranges.

Redbreast 12 Year Old Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey, 70cl
A triple distilled, single pot still Irish whiskey produced by Irish Distillers, aka Pernod Ricard, which is known for a somewhat spicy kick.
