I forgot to follow up on this, but I don't know if you;re aware or not Julius that Springbank have a 5yr 100proof release in their range now that appears to be a little under the radar and ergo still ...

I love Springbank, it's one of my favourite distilleries, but there are loads of great distillereis out there and really Glen Scotia and Kilkerran are pretty much as good as Springbank and you can sti ...

We're probably never going back to the time when Springbank/Kilkerran and the likes are accessible, because too many people are aware of the drinks now, the quality of the whisky is too good, and they ...

What are you referring to in terms of vertical crinkles, the markings above the perforated pull out part (right at the top of the seal) or the creases around the "neck" towards the bottom of ...

I once got told it wasn't all that so it's one I've avoided, but I might have to take a punt on it one day,Don't bother, it just tastes like someone took the 10yr and watered it down to 30% ABV. It's ...

Yeah, I've not bought a bottle of whisky all year, and Black Friday hasn't changed my mind! What blows my mind is that it's Oban 4 we're talking about, which is a nice malt, but not exactly something ...

Just realised that Oban 14 has also been hit with the Diageo price hammer. It;s now over Â£70 a bottle at a lot of places. Just let that one sink in for a second... just, wow! Shocked

If I'm being honest about the museum I think they want to bring in more the local inner-city 20-30s audience more than the whisky enthusiast, so it's more an artisan spirits + museum tour vibe they wo ...

Thanks guys, is 25ml/0.8oz typical for whisky tastings to you? I've not been to many in fairness, but from my memory I would say the pours were in the 25ml range.

It's basically just two factors I' ...

I'm helping out at a charity-run museum that's thinking of putting on various spirits tastings combined with museum tours, kind of an interesting building to do this sort of thing at, but at the momen ...

Lagavulin 16 is not really a premium line, it was a high-entry/low-mid level malt of astoundingly inconsistent quality. It was universally available everwhere for years at Â£49 a bottle, now you're ...

So the latest committee announcement has dropped and Ardbeg have put together atheir very own comic book for visitors to the distillery to buy and enjoy, which has just been released online electronic ...

Ardbeg's latest offering is a NFT whisky matured underground for almost three years... a snip at $3000! only roughly 450 bottles but they can most definitely bog off! Very Happy

Balvenie 12, and definitely the Balvenie 14 caribbean cask. Glenfarclas 15 for sure. Try not to focus too much on one whisky region though after liking a bottle from that region, plenty of Highlands o ...

Really bold heavily peated whiskies will give you the longest finish, something like Ardbeg 10 you can taste in your mouth the next morning 10hrs later (no exaggeration!). So think Ardbegg, Lagavulin, ...
