Glendronach 12 year old

The GlenDronach 12-Year-Old Single Malt Scotch

In partnership with Brown Forman

No one has mastered the art of sherried single malts quite like The GlenDronach. Located in the Highland region, the long-running distillery offers a superb range of elegant sippers with a robust natural colour to match. To this day, they continue to use local water and their saxophone-shaped stills when creating each of their coveted expressions. That includes this flagship single malt, which is aged for a minimum of 12 years in a combination of premium Spanish Pedro Ximenez and Oloroso sherry casks. It carries a true depth of character and richness that shows dedication to their sherry-cask mastery.

Distilled in pot stills from 100% malted barley, non-chill filtered, and bottled at 43%, The GlenDronach 12-Year is every bit as exquisite as its award-winning reputation would suggest. It opens with a nose of dark malt, deep vanilla, and mulled wine and ginger. The taste is similarly sweet and layered, performing a beautiful balancing act between sherry, caramel, and malted grain. Wood and dried fruit kick in on the finish along with continued sweetness and a little spice. This is the stuff that whisky dreams are made of. – AU$105

Paneari 1218

Panerai Luminor Chrono PAM1218

The new Panerai Luminor Chrono PAM01218 is simplistic in the most beautiful way possible. While other luxury brands are creating chronographs with cluttered dials, this tone on tone sub-counters layout of the PAM01218 is uniquely refreshing. Magnetic to the eye, the pristine white dial offers incredible symmetry, with the bi-compax counters sitting directly opposed, while the text at both the 12’oclock and 6’oclock provide balance to the face.

This timeless piece measures 44mm in diameter, sitting proudly without dominating the wrist. The Luminor Chrono features a 1950 cushion-shaped case with gently sloped lugs that meets the case top and a distinct U-shaped case band. On top, the polished outer bezel provides an elegant contrast with the brushing on the rest of the case and buckle. A perfect blend of formal and sporty, the versatility of the Panerai Luminor Chrono PAM01218 makes for ideal everyday use no matter the occasion. -AU $13,200

penfolds st henri shiraz

Penfolds St-Henri Shiraz

In partnership with Penfolds

From one of Australia’s most beloved winemakers—aka Penfolds—comes one of the world’s most iconic wines. Imparting ever-changing texture and minimal oak character, St. Henri Shiraz must be tasted to be believed. Its complex flavour profile comes to us by way of hand-selected fruit and a unique maturation process, whereby every drop spends a full year inside 50-year-old wine casks before bottling. No two sips are exactly the same.

Full-bodied when young, the wine takes on earthier notes and softer texture over time. It remains deep red in colour all the while, as it fires out aromas of cherry, chocolate, herbs, beef, and walnut. The taste is no less complicated or enticing, with notes of coffee, mocha, and even black olive, followed by cranberry and quince paste. A backbone of fruit-forward sweetness functions as a balancing force and a delicious one too. As far as gifts go, this one’s a no-brainer. -AU $135.00

Created by a trio of master perfumers, it delivers pure masculine confidence in olfactory form. Warm top notes of citrus and spice give way to a bold heart of clary sage, cardamom, and Egyptian geranium essence.
