Bartenders Rave About Their Favorite Hard-To-Find Scotch Whiskies

Bunnahabhain/Highland Park/Ardbeg/istock/Uproxx

There are three kinds of Scotch whisky drinkers. First, you have the casual drinkers &#8212; who enjoy trying new things but don’t take it all too seriously. They might have a bottle of Glenmorangie 10, Dewar’s, or Monkey Shoulder on the shelf that someone left at a party. Maybe they even have a bottle of Caol Ila 12 or Ardbeg 10. The second group takes whisky a little <em>too</em> seriously, collecting rare bottles without actually opening them. They keep things for &#8220;special occasions&#8221; that never seem to arrive soon enough.

We like the last group. These folks mix and match — buying rare bottles when they have the cash but also appreciating less expensive expressions. The type of drinkers who know how to savor the good stuff and how to share.

Bartenders are usually these sorts. They have access to more rare whiskies than most regular people, but they also live for the “now” (generally speaking) and actually sip what they’ve got. So they know the drams that are worth tracking down and those that can’t match the hype. That’s why we asked a handful of our favorite bartenders to tell us their most-beloved hard-to-find bottles of Scotch whisky.

Highland Park Dark Origins

Cari Hah, formerly bar manager at Café Alcove in Los Angeles

Highland Park Dark Origins. A delicious rich single malt with dark character, it is aged in 80% first-fill sherry cask with 60% being European oak and 20% American oak. This scotch is chocolatey, malty, with slight notes of black currant. The peat adds to the character — being both smoky and sweet — making this whisky as hard to put down as it is to find.

Bunnahabhain 25

Demetrëa Dewald, lead bartender at Bar Mateo at Zinc Café in Los Angeles

Bunnahabhain 25-Year-Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky is truly a beautiful Islay Scotch that can even win over those who only drink peated Scotch. Smooth and creamy with a touch of sweetness and hint of spice. Bunnahabhain 18 is a masterpiece as well, but does not touch the complexities of the 25 year.

If you have the privilege of drinking this gem the experience will be like none other. Notes of caramel and cardamom, delicate and soft — every sip should be savored.

The Macallan No. 6

Hayden Miller, head bartender at Bodega Taqueria y Tequila in Miami

The Macallan No 6. A premier tier from The Macallan with a carefully selected sherry finish that makes it worth every special occasion for which it may fill your glass.

The Balvenie 21-Year Portwood

Alex Tack, bartender at Rex 1516 in Philadelphia

The Balvenie 21-year Portwood is worth every penny… if one can afford it. I’m not sure if it’s scarce so much as it is pricey. I was fortunate enough to try it once, and I still think of it often. The natural stone fruit notes of The Balvenie mesh beautifully with the notes from the port barrels. When things are that perfect, they sort of can’t be done justice with words, which I suppose explains why they usually have such high price tags.

Ardbeg Supernova

Andy Printy, beverage director at Chao Baan in St. Louis

Hard to find, but I’m a huge fan of Ardbeg’s 2019 Supernova. Islay by region, but it’s unlike any single malt I’ve ever had. Heavily peated, but just under the smoke is a ton of toffee, aniseed, menthol, and ash.

The finish brings you right back to the medicinal peat and a touch of butter.

The Macallan Gran Reserva 12

Gavin Humes, bartender at Scratch|Bar & Kitchen in Encino, California

The Macallan Gran Reserva 12. It’s maybe not too hard to find if you’re shopping in Asia, but in the States, it’s a pretty rare pull. It’s a delicious Scotch that has wonderfully complex notes of sherry.

It’s not inexpensive, but worth every penny — assuming you can get your hands on it.

Ardbeg Traigh Bhan

Brandon “Habi” Habenstein, bartender at The Kitchen & Bar at Bardstown Bourbon Co. in Bardstown, Kentucky

Ardbeg Traigh Bhan just had its second annual release this year with a 19-year-old Islay Single Malt that was aged in both bourbon and sherry casks. They’ve done this before with at least one other label, their Uigeadail. The sherry barrel brings an intense, dried fruit presence that gets merged with the caramel and baking spices so often found in bourbon. But then you have the intense peated scotch tying all the flavors together.

Traigh Bhan is shaping up to be the most difficult Ardbeg to find.

Cadenhead’s Bruichladdich 22

Courtney Cantrell, bartender and assistant manager for Old Hickory Whiskey Bar in Pensacola, Florida

When I ponder what exactly hard-to-find whisky means to me, I’m drawn less-so to those that are, you know, a 25-year Scotch with a familiar name, and more-so towards those like Cadenhead’s Bruichladdich 22. Cadenhead, based in Campbeltown, Scotland and Scotland’s oldest independent bottler, basically purchases barrels from distilleries and allows them to age for as long as they deem necessary until the whisky is “remarkable, not marketable.” These single casks whiskies are bottled in Campbeltown and offer various ranges and ages. I find myself to be quite the peat-head, so the Bruichladdich 22 offering from Cadenhead provides the individuality and peat intensity that I find both charming and affordable.

Grand Old Parr 12

Freddy Yanez, bartender at Unreserved Beer Garden in Orlando

Grand Old Parr 12 years old, an amazing blend, imported by Diageo, is pretty popular overseas but hard to find in the US. The whisky has rich mineral and light peat notes make it a way to go for a long drink.

Writer’s Pick:

GlenDronach Parliament Sherry Cask 21

This 2011 release was launched because GlenDronach was beginning to gain in popularity and drinkers craved a special, new offering from the distillery. It’s named for the “Parliament of rooks” that call the distillery’s trees home, it’s a blend of whiskies aged in both Oloroso and Pedro Ximenez sherries.

Is Kim Kardashian Dating CNN’s Van Jones? Fans Certainly Ship This Couple

The CNN personality finalized his divorce from Jana Carter in 2019 after nearly 14 years of marriage, according to court documents obtained by The Blast. The pair have two children together and seemingly split on amicable terms.

“Divorce means the end of a marriage, not the end of a family. #FamilyForever,” he captioned a selfie with his ex-wife.

Following his divorce, Van appeared on The Wendy Williams Show, where the controversial talk show host noted, “You still wear your ring.”

He immediately snapped back, “You got something on your hand, too, so I ain’t talking about that.” He added, “I’m just saying … we can talk about your man.” Yikes!

For now, the rumor that Van and Kim are a couple is just that… a rumor. But needless to say, many fans are constantly watching for some sort of confirmation that they are, in fact, dating.

Trump Attorney Lin Wood Name Drops “Lizard Squad” In QAnon Supreme Court Tweet

As President Donald Trump prepared for his final month in office, one of his attorneys L. Lin Wood, who also represents Kenosha shooter Kyle Rittenhouse, was stoking the QAnon fire for the future. Over the weekend, Wood, one of the attorneys behind Trump’s unsuccessful litigation to remain in power following the January 20th inauguration of President-elect Joe Biden, continued to tweet about all the alleged pedophiles being harbored by the Supreme Court and the U.S. government.

After tweeting that Chief Justice of the Supreme Court John Roberts was allegedly “being blackmailed in a horrendous scheme involving rape & murder of children captured on videotape,” L. Lin Wood alleged that “10 of the world’s most well-known and ‘elite’ intelligence agencies” were hacked by the Lizard Squad. The hack resulted in securing of “blackmail files of rape & murder.” Wood also claims that the findings were given to actor Isaac Kappy, who committed suicide in 2019.

This blackmail scheme is conducted by members of 10 of world’s most well-known & “elite” intelligence agencies.

One of those groups was hacked by a group known as Lizard Squad. The blackmail files of rape & murder were obtained by this group & copy was provided to Isaac Kappy. https://t.co/9lCAggRrCG

— Lin Wood (@LLinWood) January 4, 2021

Unless you’re a QAnon loyalist, believing that a satanic cabal of pedophiles, cannibals and human traffickers rule the world, the “Lizard Squad” really took over the conversation, with many assuming the tweet meant actual lizard people hacking government databases.

However, some might remember the Lizard Squad as the hacker collective behind several massive DDoS attacks against video game companies in the mid-2010s. In 2014, they knocked on League of Legends, RuneScape, Riot Games and more offline. On Christmas of that year, the Lizard Squad claimed responsibility for a DDoS attack on the PlayStation Network and Xbox Live that left both offline for most of the day.

2/ The Lizard Squad is actually a well-known hacker collective formed in 2014. They have a long history of attacking popular video game services.https://t.co/JIBAwtsm9U

— amuse (amuse) January 4, 2021

The Lizard Squad has been known for other high-profile attacks on foreign countries, such as the time they knocked out North Korea’s government/ internet, and celebrities, including a threat to release naked photos of Taylor Swift.

So while the Lizard Squad is a real hacking group, they have not yet weighed in on whether or not there is any validity to Wood’s claims. According to Gizmodo, the group no longer exists.
