INSIDER


Port Charlotte 10 Whisky
£50 bruichladdich.com


  • Distilled, aged and bottled on Islay, this
    may be a relative newcomer to the world
    of single malts, but Port Charlotte’s youth
    belies a complex dram featuring notes
    of smoke, heather, malt and sweet fudge.


Boy De Chanel Men’s Grooming
£31-£52 chanel.com


  • A first for Chanel, Boy is its unashamedly
    metrosexual grooming range, which caters for
    confident men of all shades. Subtly enhance
    natural features such as skin tone, eyebrows
    and lips, while avoiding the “made up” look.


URWERK UR-111C
CHF 130,000 urwerk.com


  • The latest mechanised marvel to come
    from the URWERK atelier is the UR-111C.
    Innovations include the seconds indicators
    magnified by fibre optics, and a ridged
    barrel in the centre of the piece to wind it.


Samsung AKG VL3 Wireless Smart Speaker
£399 samsung.com


  • Samsung’s smart speaker has brains and
    beauty, thanks to a minimal design and Alexa
    voice integration. Audio maestro AKG has also
    provided a sonic tune-up, so no matter what
    format you’re playing, it sounds gorgeous.
