Clynelish 13, 1993-2006, 46% – John Milroy Selection
Another Clynelish I’ve recently emptied and one that I bought in a clearance sale a few years ago for some € 40 or so. A nice price for a single cask Clynelish if you ask me. Of course, there have … Continue reading
Clynelish 15, 1997-2012, 53.5% – The Whiskyman
The Whiskyman is a Belgian bottler of supposedly fine malts. He is very popular there, but in The Netherlands I have not seen his bottles yet, apart from this one which I ordered in Belgium… He has a few different … Continue reading
Clynelish 1971-2009, 47.9% – Old Malt Cask
A Clynelish from the early years of the distillery! After it was opened in 1968 it was only in production for three years before this barrel was laid to rest. It waited a glorious 38 years before it was bottled … Continue reading
Clynelish 12, 57% – Samaroli Coilltean
Samaroli is, of course, the famous bottler from Italy that bottled (according to many) the best whiskies ever some decades ago. I believe this was the early eighties. Since then they have only released a couple bottlings until a large … Continue reading
Clynelish 12 – Friends of the Classic Malts

Hielander Whisky Festival 2013
The whisky festival in Alkmaar, hosted by Wullie MacMorland of The Hielander Scottish Restaurant is usually the first official whisky event of the year. This year it is no different. Funnily enough I go there every year with different people. … Continue reading
Clynelish 15, 56.1% – Master of Malt
The second to last Master of Malt bottling for a while. Clynelish is an all time favourite of mine so I have high expectations of this one. I just seem to love almost all bottlings that come out of that … Continue reading
BTC sample 17 – Clynelish 1982, 53.7%
The penultimate sample in the competition. All chances of winning are long gone but that is nothing I didn’t expect. I like to taste whisky and I can remember drams by description. Remembering by taste is something I find really … Continue reading
The Blog Birthday Bash #2
Last Friday this wee blog turned two years old. I find it very surprising that I kept it up this long and that so many of you are reading my ramblings, but so far there is a slight growth every … Continue reading
