Do Burns Night best with Master of Malt

25 January is the birthday of the great Scottish poet Robert Burns. On this date, people around the world celebrate his legacy with an extravagant affair of food, music and malt.

Burns Night might not officially be a whisky holiday, but like St. Patrick’s Day, it becomes a celebration of the spirit through its joyous Celtic roots. Even more so because the man himself loved a drop of the good stuff.

There’s really no way to celebrate Burns Night without a good glass of Scotch whisky in hand. It’s what the man would have wanted. Others will help you sort the haggis and kilt for the big day, but nobody has a better selection of Scotch whisky for Burns Night 2025 than we have.

If you want to do Burns Night right then you’re in the right place. We’ve got everything you need to make this year the best yet, including the only annual Burns Night Poetry Competition that rewards you with Scotch whisky. The 2025 edition is now open for entries!

Embrace the wild and rugged Meikle Tòir

A bottle of Meikle Tòir The Sherry One whisky sitting on a pile of books in a library.

Meikle Tòir The Sherry One

One for fans of smoke and sherry. Meikle Tòir The Sherry One is peated using mainland peat from St. Fergus to 35ppm and benefited from a lengthy fermentation period of 160 hours. It’s fruity and complex enough to stand up to ageing in Pedro Ximénez and oloroso sherry puncheons following an initial maturation in American oak bourbon barrels.

Mocha and dark fruit.

TASTING NOTES

Nose:

Salted caramel leads to sticky toffee pudding sprinkled with nutmeg. With time a leathery quality emerges.

Palate:

Dense, rich sherried notes perked up with a coastal saltiness. On a second wave roast chestnuts emerge and gentle wood spice.

Finish:

Woodspice becomes mixed spice. The finish is warming and lengthy; salt and sherry towards the very end.

Laphroaig 10 Sherry Oak

TASTING NOTES

Nose:

There are custard notes familiar from the 40% ABV expression, though now paired with more citrus, pear and fudge cubes you get in seaside sweet shops.

Palate:

Toffee chunks with a little bit of dark chocolate hidden inside. A touch of grassy malt and crushed nuts.

Finish:

A final hint of caramel and golden malt.

A bottle of Timorous Beastie whisky.

Timorous Beastie

Douglas Laing's Timorous Beastie is a blended malt made entirely of Highland whiskies from distilleries such as Dalmore, Glen Garioch, Glengoyne and more. The name is, of course, a nod to the mouse in the poem 'To a Mouse'. A whisky named after a Burns character seems particularly fitting, doesn’t it?

TASTING NOTES

Nose:

Acacia honey, creamy boiled sweeties (the strawberry flavour), dried apricots and white grapes. There's a good whack of Sherry influence in here too! A whiff of coastal air and classic Highland heather, too.

Palate:

Dried fruits, green apples and anise. Sweet grist and malt loaf. Pebble beaches and more heather on the mid-palate.

Finish:

Long. Drying with hot cinnamon sweeties and fresh bread.

A bottle of Lagavulin Distillers Edition - 2022 Collection Whisky.

Lagavulin Distillers 2022

Haggis & Neeps & Tatties & Burns 15 Year Old

A bottle of &Whisky Haggis & Neeps & Tatties & Burns 15 Year Old.

Haggis & Neeps & Tatties & Burns 15 Year Old

This is a vintage 2009 Scotch produced by a Lowland distillery that still uses a traditional worm tub condenser (a piece of kit now rarely seen, but essential in Burns’ day and revered by whisky geeks). It was aged in single hogshead for a full 15 years before being bottled at 40% ABV.

It’s a mighty flavoursome whisky packed with vibrant layers of citrus, soft stone fruits, herbs, and spices. You could pair it with lemon zest and elderflower liqueur, or with a massive ice cube and/or some sparkling water for a refreshing Highball. However you drink it, it's a grand companion for a hearty meal! It’s also got an adorable little haggis on the label. The perfect whisky to celebrate the big day with, and it’s only £39.95!
