Let’s get the ball rolling.… Best Traditional Whiskey of 2022 UK versus USA Last Drop Glenturret 1977 single malt Scotch The Last Drop is an independent bottler specializing in rare, often obscure stocks of extra-matured liquids that stand up to the test of time. Best New World Whisky of 2022 Japan versus Denmark Fuji 30-Year single grain Japanese whisky Japanese whisky is commanding tons of attention these days, but the focus is fixed steadily on single malts and blends. Best Gin of 2022 Kenya versus Australia Procera Green Dot gin Whereas most gins on the market today are made using dried juniper, this Nairobi-based distillery relies on fresh berries from the native Juniperus procera. Best Digestif of 2022 Portugal versus Iceland Sandeman Old Tawny Porto 50 Years port Port—perhaps the most famous of fortified wines—may be a contentious inclusion on a list of best spirits, but with a shelf-stable 20% ABV, this one will sit on your liquor cart for countless months alongside rum, brandy and whiskey without oxidizing or evolving in flavor.
