If you’re looking for long-aged, limited-edition single-malt Scotch whiskies to add to your collection, a good place to start is The Dalmore. This iconic brand has myriad exclusive releases perfect for collectors and luxury whisky drinkers alike. Its newest releases are a partnership with one of the world’s best winemakers.

It’s called the Dalmore Cask Curation Series Port Edition, and as its name suggests, it’s the second release in partnership with Portugal’s Symington Family Estates. The iconic winemakers gave The Dalmore exclusive access to its rarest Graham’s Port casks to finish these single-malt whiskies.

The best part? This isn’t just one whisky release. The Dalmore is actually releasing three limited-edition expressions. The first is a 27-year-old single-malt whisky that was finished in Graham’s 1997 Single Harvest Tawny Port casks. The second is a 30-year-old single-malt whisky finished in Graham’s 1994 Single Harvest Tawny Port casks. The last expression is a 43-year-old single-malt whisky finished in Graham’s 1952 Single Harvest Tawny Port casks.

Each expression is non-chill filtered, features natural color, and comes in the famous bottle The Dalmore is known for in a bespoke leather-finished travel case handmade in Florence, Italy.

Yes, you read that right, so you need to start saving up.

Latte

As the year winds down, the flavored coffee world gets extra busy. From pumpkin spice in the fall to gingerbread and pecan praline around the holidays, flavored coffee always seems to shine toward year-end. As we look ahead to 2027, Christophe Ernotte, VP of North America at La Cimbali, shares his thoughts on where beverage flavor is headed next year. From nutty, green flavors like matcha and pistachio to brighter, more acidic, citrus-forward drinks, here’s what Ernotte believes may become 2027’s hottest coffee flavor trends.

The best non-alcoholic fall beers to celebrate Sober October

Deschutes

Dry January might be the most popular month for taking a break from alcohol, but Sober October is a close second. If you’re spending this month sans alcohol and you’re getting tired of simply drinking sparkling water, there are options aplenty, especially if you’re usually a beer drinker.

If you didn’t know it already, the non-alcoholic beer world has improved a lot in the last decade. When I first started writing about alcohol twenty years ago, I wrote an article where I taste-tested NA beers and the results were fairly brutal. While I won’t name the beers, pretty much all were fizzy, yellow, and at best fairly flavorless. In essence, they didn’t really taste like beer. That’s definitely not the same today. It’s a whole new world of non-alcoholic beer.

Tom Brady-backed Hero launches low-carb pasta for National Pasta Month

Hero

October is National Pasta Month — and if you ask me, it’s not getting nearly enough hype. There’s never a bad time for pasta, but the high carbohydrate content can keep people running the other way. Luckily, Hero has us covered, bringing back pasta night with three new low-carb pasta shapes. Backed by celeb athletes like Tom Brady and Kevin Durant, the Hero Pasta collection now includes Elbow Macaroni, Penne and Mini Spirals. All three deliver the taste, texture, and bite of traditional pasta with a fraction of the carbs.

Every box of Hero Noodles has the same nutrition profile: 5g net carbs, 0g sugar, 32g fiber, 12g plant-based protein, and 80 calories per serving. With over 40,000 5-star reviews, Hero has shown that pasta lovers no longer have to settle for pea-based noodles, spaghetti squash, or cauliflower stand-ins. For someone like me who has followed a generally low-carb diet for years, innovations like Hero’s low-carb noodles are a true game changer (and make it possible to enjoy National Pasta Month just like everyone else).
