Thanks for this William! Looks like from your picture that the ABV for the blend and blended malt is 44.2%. It took me a moment to realise - 4-4-2. Personally I would have bottled it at 46.3% in the h ... |

I see Amazon have got this back in stock again (£39). Don't all rush at once! Since it's supposed to be part of the core range I think I'll wait until it goes on offer. One of the comments on ... |

Another ‘no’ for me too, which has left a bitter taste in my mouth (much like the flavour profile of the Hillhead, I like to think). Makes me wonder whether the Keystones series has been ... |

When Blackadder come out with a new run I always have a look at the Gauntleys of Nottingham website. They usually have a good selection. |

Nobody recommended the Bunnahabhain 18 yet? It's a stunning dram, the pick of the bunch in my opinion. I'd go for that one and the Benriach 15 Sherry above all.
Agree 100%. My top two picks from th ... |

Bookmarked this from 'Master of Malt' a few years ago and I see it's still available. Interesting to read the reviews too:

I had a bottle of Abhainn Dearg single malt a few years back, which I’d been looking forward to trying simply because it was rather new and unusual. Unfortunately it tasted like pure alcohol th ... |

Thanks William for the heads-up! I'll be passing through Heathrow soon so will try and get a sample if they have a bottle open. I'm glad to see it's going to be part of Balvenie's core range so there' ... |

I notice on the newly revamped HP website that a 10yo appears to be the entry level bottle now with a RRP of £30. So it's looking rather like this reworking will mean prices of the 12yo will go up. ... |
