Maple Syrup Aged in Pappy Van Winkle bourbon barrels
Pappy and Co. Bourbon Barrel Aged Maple Syrup...$32.99
Our maple syrup is sweeter than Southern hospitality.
Our great grandfather, Pappy Van Winkle taught us that to make the best, you use the best. That's why we grew up using real maple syrup on (and in) our favorite dishes.

When we decided to make our own, we wanted to find a partner that shared our love of hand-crafted, high quality products. We found a perfect match in Bissel Maple Farm. The result is a perfect marriage of craftsmanship and flavor.

Together, we've made a one-of-a-kind syrup bursting with flavors of vanilla, butter, oak and, of course, bourbon. Aged in Pappy Van Winkle bourbon barrels, use it in your favorite recipes, as a finishing syrup or even in your favorite cocktails. Just be sure to save a little for those Sunday morning pancakes.




Bittermilk Pappy Van Winkle Bourbon Barrel Aged Old Fashioned
...$19.99 / 8.5oz bottle
...$19.99 / 5 single serve bottles
At Pappy & Company, we recognize that not everyone is a bourbon purist. Sometimes, you just want to mix it up. Our dad, Julian, likes to say, "The better the bourbon, the better the cocktail" With gourmet blends of bittering spices, Bittermilk cocktail mixers make it easy to impress your friends, family and party guests with your mixology skills. Create a classic old fashioned, or spin it into a unique craft cocktail at home. Just add bourbon.

We've recreated this gentlemen's cocktail by using classic bittering agents like gentian root and cinchona bark along with burnt sugar, spices and a bit of orange peel. Aged in retired Pappy bourbon barrels to allow the flavors to come together and ramp up the intensity. It is super concentrated so a little bit goes a long way. Best with aged spirits. Stir 1 part No.1 + 4 parts rye or bourbon in a glass with ice. Garnish with an orange peel.

Notes:
Refrigerate after opening.
Best to enjoy within four weeks of opening.
This cocktail mix is super concentrated, so a little bit goes a long way.
Ingredients: Florida Golden Cane Sugar, Burnt Cane Sugar, Water, Fresh Orange Peel, Spices, Organic Gentian Root, Cinchona Bark, Tartaric Acid





Pappy & Co. Barrel Aged Pepper Sauce...$13.99

Aged in Pappy Van Winkle Barrels

It's high noon on a hot, Southern summer day. The sun shining brightly from cloudless sky, the humidity as thick as honey. It's a purifying heat; the kind that makes you feel like you've accomplished something just by being brave enough to weather it.
We've taken that heat and bottled it.
In partnership with another family owned business (and our friends), Midland Ghost, we've created an exclusive hot sauce. Made with their famous, locally grown, first generation Ghost Peppers and aged in our Pappy Van Winkle bourbon barrels for a rich, smoky, oaky heat. We mellow out the heat of the ghost peppers by adding some mild red peppers to the mix. The result is the perfect blend that makes this a smoky pepper sauce you can add a dash to just about anything from meats and vegetables to Bloody Mary cocktails.

Go beyond the grill, and discover all of the culinary fun you can have with our hot sauce.

Jim Beam Legends 3pk

 


Jim Beam Legends 3pk...$29.99 / 3pk / 375ml bottles

Includes: 

Jim Beam Black Extra Aged 375ml:

      What do you do when awarded the International Wine & Spirits Competition’s 2016 Bourbon Trophy? You don’t change a thing. That’s why Jim Beam Black is, and always will be, extra-aged to taste and bottled only when it’s just right. The result is a full-bodied bourbon with an extra level of elegance and refinement that’s meant to be sipped and savored. And of course, just like its younger brother, our original Jim Beam®, it’s best when shared with others.

Basil Hayden Bourbon 375ml:

    Crafted in 1992 by Booker Noe as part of the Small Batch collection, Basil Hayden introduced a more subtle side of bourbon compared to its counterparts.
    This style of bourbon was inspired by 1792 whiskey pioneer Meredith Basil Hayden, Sr., a rye farmer from Maryland who moved to Kentucky and began distilling. He chose to distill his bourbon with a higher percentage of rye, and Booker set out to create a similar high-rye mash bill that would offer the same refined, approachable taste profile.
    Today, this bourbon stands as a tribute to Meredith Basil Hayden, Sr.’s high-rye mash bill ingenuity, as well as to Booker Noe, a true innovator who sought to welcome new drinkers into whiskey.

Knob Creek Bourbon 9yr 375ml:      

    When it comes to making Knob Creek Bourbon, there's a lot of waiting but hardly any sitting around. While each barrel patiently ages in white oak, our distillers continue to raise the standards, fulfilling their commitment to full flavor. The result? An unflinching balance of deep, pre-Prohibition-style bourbon with a robust oak taste, complemented with hints of smooth vanilla and layered caramel.

It is without doubt a 'must have' in the collection of all Single Malt Whisky enthusiasts.

Arran Sherry Cask The Bodega Single Malt Scotch...$69.99
55.8% ABV
Sherry Cask 'The Bodega' is a stunning new addition to our core range of whiskies and is the perfect choice for someone who enjoys their Single Malt with plenty of body and complexity.
Matured in some of the finest casks available to the whisky industry, this cask strength 100% Sherry matured Single Malt is both luxurious and elegant with layers of rich sweet spice and oak. Our Master Distiller has worked with producers in some of the most prestigious Sherry Bodegas in Jerez, Spain to select only the best quality casks to be filled with our precious spirit.

This bottling is a return to the style of some of the earliest Arran Single Malt, which was mostly matured in Sherry Casks. During a tasting, this expression is the perfect partner to our Quarter Cask 'The Bothy' as it showcases the skill and expertise of our Master Distiller in his work with different wood types and supreme cask selection.



Arran Port Cask Finish Single Malt Scotch...$63.99
50% ABV
A fantastic choice at any time, particularly as an after dinner dram, especially with a delicious cheese selection.
After initially maturing in traditional oak casks for approximately 8 years, The Arran Single Malt in this bottling was finished in a selection of Port casks sourced from an artisan producer of this iconic Portuguese fortified wine.

The maturation process was monitored under the watchful eye of our Master Distiller, to ensure that the Port casks and the intrinsic character of The Arran Single Malt partnered with each other perfectly. The end result is a combination that's full of charm and rich flavour, and a wonderful way to discover more about the Arran range of Single Malts.


Arran Sauternes Cask Finish Single Malt Scotch...$63.99
This sweeter side of Arran Single Malt makes an ideal dessert dram with complementary notes of apricots, melon and honeysuckle.
We are delighted to present our range of wine cask finishes Single Malt in a brand new pack for 2020. The same delicious Single Malt with a new-look pack.
To achieve this rich partnership, our traditional Arran Single Malt is matured in oak casks for eight years and is then 'finished' in a selection of Sauternes wine casks.
These Bordeaux sweet white wine casks are specifically selected by our Master Distiller from a talented small producer to ensure the notes from both wine and whisky make the perfect marriage. If you're looking for something that shows off the sweeter side of Arran Single Malt, this is perfect choice for you. It pairs beautifully with a creamy toffee or fudge based pudding

Arran Amarone Cask Finish Single Malt Scotch...$63.99
After initially maturing in traditional oak casks over a number of years The Arran Single Malt in this bottling was ‘finished’ in a selection of Amarone wine casks sourced from an artisan producer of this stunning & iconic red wine from the Veneto region of Italy. Our Master Distiller, James MacTaggart, has carefully monitored this period of secondary maturation to ensure the perfect balance is struck between the Amarone casks and the intrinsic sweet-fruity character of The Arran Malt. The end result is a Single Malt with a rich brooding character, full of complexity and quality.



Arran Single Malt Scotch Quarter Cask The Bothy...$63.99
56.2% ABV

Our Quarter Cask expression is a complex, rich and intensely fruity Single Malt, a cask strength delight and the perfect partner to our Sherry Cask Single Malt!

The Arran Single Malt selected for this cask strength expression was initially matured in first-fill ex-Bourbon barrels before being transferred for secondary maturation into smaller Quarter casks also made of the finest American oak. The process of transferring our whisky into the smaller 125 litre sized casks produces far greater contact between the whisky & oak and a faster, more intense maturation.

The end result is a full-bodied expression of Arran Single Malt combining power and finesse full of rich vanilla sweetness and bold peppery spice. Bottling at natural Cask Strength without chill-filtration or artificial colouring of any sort presents this whisky in its purest form. Small casks would have been a common feature of the Arran whisky trade in the eighteenth & nineteenth centuries as they were easier to handle and transport around the island. With our much-loved Quarter Cask expression we proudly bring this tradition back to life.

Hewitt Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon Estate Grown

Father's Day is June 19th

2014 Hewitt Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon Estate Grown...$109.99
The purity of this wine is crazy. Blue fruits with aromas of oyster shell and Indian ink. Full-bodied yet tight and reserved. A fabulous finish of ultra-fine tannins and focused fruit. This is a superb young Napa cab. Give it three to four years of bottle age. New Napa cult?
Rated 98/100 James Suckling
2016 Hewitt Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon Estate Grown...$119.99
I love the character of crushed berries, dried dirt and sliced raw meat. Decadent. Full body. Round and creamy tannins in texture. So polished and beautiful. It goes on for minutes. 96% cabernet sauvignon with petit verdot. Give this two or three years to come together. Better after 2021.
Rated 97/100 James Suckling
Starting with the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon, this ripe, sexy red comes all from Rutherford and has a big nose of sweet blueberries, plums, dark chocolate, tobacco, and spice. It's not for those looking for lightweight aromas and flavors, yet it wears its ripe fruit well, showing full-bodied richness, good purity, and a lively feel on the palate. Drink this hedonistic blockbuster over the coming 10-15 years.
Rated 94/100 Jeb Dunnuck
Solidly built, with heft to the core of cassis and dark plum reduction flavors, inlaid with singed alder, smoldering tobacco, sassafras and subtle loam notes. Delivers depth and drive, and will cruise in the cellar. Best from 2021 through 2032. 1,406 cases made
Rated 93/100 The Wine Spectator

Super Sale
2018 Tohu Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc.....wow - only...$9.99
Was $17.99
This fresh and focused Sauvignon has bright aromas of citrus, apples and passionfruit with a distinct fresh cut grass herbaceous line running through it. On the palate the fresh fruit shines through with more green apples, lemongrass and passionfruit given focus by some fresh natural acidity, a touch of sweetness but finishing with a dry minerality.

This wine’s natural acidity and vibrant flavors make it a great accompaniment to all types of New Zealand seafood, specifically green lipped Mussels served with fresh summer salads and crusty bread.




Great Value
2021 Arrumaco Garnacha Rose...$9.99 / 750ml
Offering impressive density and concentration, striking purity of fruit, and true and loud expressions of Spain’s classic varietals, Arrumaco has become a go-to label that has risen to the top in a crowded category of sensational values.
Tasting Notes: Lighter in color and body than many other Spanish rosés. Loaded with intense raspberry and plum aromas that follow to a crisp yet silky palate.
Serve With: Excellent on its own and with a wide range of lighter fare. The perfect summer sipper and tapas wine!




2019 Villa des Anges Cabernet Sauvignon...$12.99
Sustainable Non-Certified
Made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon that was brought up all in tank, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon has solid purity in its blackberry and currant fruits as well as notes of tobacco leaf and underbrush. It's medium-bodied, has good acidity, ample fruit, and is one hell of a bistro wine.
Rated 88-90/100 Jeb Dunnuck
Fresh and medium-bodied, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon boasts pure cassis aromas, a silky texture and hints of mocha on the finish. It's a terrific value for Cabernet Sauvignon—as long as you're happy paying for quality wine and not a fancy appellation.
Rated 88-89/100 Wine Advocate




2020 Carbonneau La Franc Touch Cabernet Franc....$29.99
100% Cabernet Franc

WINEMAKING: Manual harvest in the morning to preserve the freshness of the fruit. Maceration at 8 ° C for 5 days to extract the fruit without moving the harvest. Short maceration and fermentation in indigenous yeasts at 24-26 ° C with very little intervention on the wine. 20% whole clusters.

TASTING: On the nose there is a mixture of fresh red fruit, mint and violet. The wine expresses the liveliness of Cabernet Franc, both ripe and fresh from the Bordeaux clay-limestone terroir. On the palate, there is a good acidity which gives length to balance the sweetness and the roundness of the fruit

The estate will be full organic status in 2022 and biodynamics by 2023
