Bunnahabhain Moine 2004, 13yo, Marsala Cask, 56.6% – OB Distillery Only
In April of last year I went to Islay with three of my best friends for a rather epic week of booze, scenery, Scotland and a few games of Cards Against Humanity. We decided to not do too many distillery … Continue reading

Glenmorangie 19, Finest Reserve, 43%
I somehow don’t review too many Glenmorangies, while I do really like the distillery’s output. This not reviewing many is mostly because their core range is very stable and they don’t do too many special releases. Also, a lot of … Continue reading
