Top 10 whiskies for June
Collection by Andreas Schwarz 8 Items
This June's whisky selection has been carefully curated by Andreas Schwarz, a well-respected figure among whisky enthusiasts. With summer in full swing, Andreas invites us on a sensory journey through 10 bottles that blend intensity, character, and a touch of originality — all reflecting his distinctive and passionate style. From Scotland come bold expressions like the Lagavulin 11 Offerman Edition 2022, aged in charred oak casks, and the provocative Ardbeg Bizarrebq, with its smoky, BBQ-inspired profile. Peated notes also shine in the vibrant Ledaig Sinclair Series, while Bunnahabhain New Acquaintance offers contrast through its double wood maturation. More unusual offerings include the German St. Kilian "Fifteen" and the innovative Finch Berg Bier Cask, showcasing the versatility of continental European whisky. From Japan, the elegant and coveted Hibiki 21 brings balance and refinement, acting as a perfect counterpoint. Rounding out the list are the bold Knob Creek 9 from the U.S., the smooth and complex Brigantia Lakeside, a rare limited release, and the versatile Campbeltown Loch, capturing the spirit of a legendary whisky region in one masterful blend. A selection crafted to celebrate summer with diversity, intensity, and personality — just like Andreas himself.


My name is Andreas Schwarz, since a trip to Ireland in 2017 and a visit to Tullamore DEW, I have been fascinated by the water of life and (like many others) have gradually gotten into the subject.
