Every week, Boss Hunting’s editors spend far too much time scouring the web: in search of the coolest gear, food & drink deals, and destinations worth trekking to across the globe.
In this week’s edition of Good Finds, we’ve got an award-winning Aussie single malt, Moncler’s latest trail-running winner, and plenty more.
18-Year-Old French Oak Ex-White Wine
Four times is getting excessive, but that’s exactly what Sullivans Cove has done, once again claiming World’s Best Single Cask Single Malt for another stellar release. This latest win has come from an 18-Year-Old French Oak ex-White Wine (Single Cask No. TD0112), cementing with it a level of recognition that no other distillery has achieved.
The awarded cask represents a leading edge of maturation practice. But the team at Sullivans Cove has the rare expertise required to manage active oak of this kind, demanding continuous sensory monitoring, calibrated intervention, and a deep understanding of the evolving relationship between elements. A small producer making a big statement – again.
Moncler Trail Grip LP
Sneakers don’t usually weigh their street credibility in grams, but for the latest Moncler Trailgrip LP, we can make an exception. At just 380 grams, it’s the lightest technical sneaker the Italian house has ever made, arriving with a low-profile silhouette that’s designed to handle the demanding intersection between rock climbing and hiking.
The midsole sits concealed within the silhouette, whilst a bold TPU toe cap integrates seamlessly with the rugged Vibram outsole, creating the impression of single-piece construction from toe to heel. A protective foxing above the outsole shields the upper whilst reinforcing the original Trailgrip’s design language. Perfect, for wherever your adventure takes you.
Speedland x ORTLIEB Duffle
Speedland has been hauling shoes to demo runs in ORTLIEB Duffles for years, so slapping their name on the bag was less creative branding and more an acknowledgment of what already works. The sun-yellow 40L duffle is welded, waterproof to IP67, and power-washer-friendly, meaning it’s built to carry whatever the trail throws back at you.
Made in Germany since 1982, ORTLIEB has been quietly making weather irrelevant, while Speedland has made its name thanks to its obsession with durability. Sometimes, the best partnerships are the most pragmatic ones.
