Whisky of the month
Glenkinchie 12 year
Replacing the ever popular (now discontinued) 10 year malt, this year is
fuller and richer in flavour A sweet nose and a hint of peat make this a good
introduction to the world of single malts.
Cocktail of the month
Aviation
A deliciously refreshing summer drink comprising of Plymouth gin, a little
Maraschino liqueur and a drop of chilled mineral water. Garnished with a
cherry or even a sugar rimmed glass if you have a devilishly sweet tooth.
Beer of the month
Alhambra Reserva 1925
A Woods favourite, this one. This ‘1925’ ultra premium award winning lager,
brewed over 35 days has a powerful nose of caramel aromas, full flavours on
the palate and a satisfying finish.
