Silmaril - the jewel of our cocktail list and, for good reason, our best seller.

A bright blend of gin, kiwi, elderflower liqueur, ginger liqueur, honey, and fresh lemon, this cocktail strikes the perfect balance between sweet and sour. Fruity, refreshing, incredibly smooth, and dangerously easy to drink. Treat yourself šŸ«¶šŸ»

The Irish have definitely stolen our hearts.
Ask the team for a favourite and chances are theyā€™ll point straight at Redbreast Lustau - rich, smooth and dangerously easy to fall in love with. Absolutely divine Oloroso sherry cask šŸ–¤

But donā€™t stop there. Our shelves are stacked with whisky from all over the world, and our wonderfully international collection has plenty of gems waiting to be discovered. SlĆ”inte šŸ„ƒ

Weā€™ve managed to get our hands on something seriously special - the legendary Octomore 01.1 šŸ–¤

This is the first ever release - the one that started it all.

Distilled in 2002 and bottled in 2008, this 5-year-old Islay bad boy comes in at a staggering 131 PPM, making it the most heavily peated whisky in the world at the time of release.

Only around 6,000 bottles were ever produced - and finding one now isā€¦ not easy. We spent months hunting this bottle down.

Matured in ex-bourbon casks and bottled at a bold 63.5% ABV, itā€™s raw, powerful, and unapologetically smoky, but layered with unexpected sweetness: honey, fruit, vanilla, and that signature Octomore intensity.

This is the dram that built Octomoreā€™s cult status.

If you know, you know.
And if you donā€™t - this is your chance.

šŸ„ƒ Available now at Bibliotheca - until it disappears (again)
