Glenturret 13 Year (Berry Brothers & Rudd)

 

The third of my five Berry Brothers and Rudd (BBR) bottles I splurged on: a sherry-matured 13 year peated Glenturret (also known as Ruadh Maor). 

Dailuaine 13 Year (Berry Brothers & Rudd)

 

The second of five Berry Brothers and Rudd bottles I obtained just after their DC opening. They actually have quite a few bottles I'm interested in, but until my next employment opportunity comes through I'll be savoring this interesting 13 (?)-year Dailuaine with a Moscatel finish. 

Ardmore 11 Year (Berry Bros & Rudd)

 

My review hiatus is, for now, ended: I have eight or nine bottles to work through in the next couple months. 

This one is a single cask Ardmore from Berry Brothers and Rudd. Berry Brothers and Rudd is a wine merchant originating in London, and was founded all the way back in 1698 (!), making them the oldest wine and spirits merchant in the UK. 

Until last week, they had no official presence in the United States, but they just opened their flagship store - and it happens to be here in Washington DC! In fact, steps away from an old office where I used to work.
