Good Evening Dear Customers
The ever changing selection of bottles on our shelves has recently been supplemented with new whiskies, gins, vermouths, tequilas and many, many more. As always, there is not the space to fit everything in, so we have picked out a few highlights. To get the full flavour of what's new you'll need to browse our website or come visit us at 23 Bath Street.
The website is open 24/7, and you'll find us at the shop 10am-6pm Monday to Saturday and 12pm-5pm Sunday.
See you soon,
Cheers
The Good Spirits Co.

Whisky
Lindores 'The Casks of Lindores - STR Wine Barrique' (£55, 70cl/49.4%)
This second release in the Casks of Lindores is a limited batch selected exclusively from STR wine casks (that's Shaved-Toasted-Recharred, in case you're wondering).
Proprietary Cocktail #29 (£20, 20cl/54%)
Oor wee barrel in the shop has held an ever-changing vatting of whisky for over a decade now. The latest iteration has had some Crème de Cacao added to the mix. We reckon it's delicious.
James Eadie Small Batch Caol Ila 11 Year Old (£53.50, 70cl/46%)
The ever-reliable James Eadie have released another cracking Caol Ila for all you peat heads, but of course there are plenty of others to choose from.

Tequila & Mezcal
Madre Mezcal Espadin (£44, 70cl/40%)
We've long been fans of the Madre Mezcal Artesanal, so we're very pleased to have its bigger sibling on the shelves.
Tapatio Excelencia Gran Reserva Extra Añejo (£184, 100cl/40%)
If you're looking for an outrageous treat (for someone special, or even yourself), how about a litre of extra aged tequila from the maestros at Tapatio?
Los Siete Misterios Doba Yej (£54.50, 70cl/44%)
A wonderful double-distilled Mezcal from Espadin agave.

Gin
Downpour (£40, 70cl/46%)
Not a newcomer to us, but here presented in beautiful new apothecary style packaging.
Citadelle Jardin d'Été (£36.50, 70cl/41.5%)
This twist on the original Citadelle recipe brings Charentais melon to the mix for a bright, summery, refreshing gin & tonic.
Hendrick's Neptunia (£37.50, 70cl/43.3%)
We can't hope to describe this one better than the fine folks at Hendrick's, who say, "Our first maritime release, the fresh sea-song notes characteristic of native coastal flora vigorously emboldens HENDRICK’S signature combination of Cucumber and Rose". We haven't tried it yet, but they also tell us it makes a very fine gimlet.
