Glen Scotia 26, 1992-2018, Bourbon Hogshead, 47.3% – Cadenhead

Posted on 25 June 2021 by Sjoerd de Haan-Kramer

I went into this dram with great expectations. It’s Glen Scotia, which I love. It’s also Cadenhead, which I also love. Of course, both have their ups and downs. Since it’s been quite a while since I got this sample, … Continue reading →

If I’m not mistaken this was in the first batch of whiskies ever released by Archives, which has since become a more-or-less household name for whisky fanatics in The Netherlands, and abroad. I got my hands on a bottle recently, … Continue reading →

Glen Scotia 20, 1992-2012, 51.9% – Westwood Whisky

Posted on 10 February 2021 by Sjoerd de Haan-Kramer

This completely random Glen Scotia came from an auction a few months ago. By now the bottle is empty because of me liking the whisky, it being used in a tasting and some bottle-shares. For some reason the ‘Westwood’ thing … Continue reading →

Glen Scotia Dunnage Warehouse Tasting

Posted on 8 February 2021 by Sjoerd de Haan-Kramer

As with virtually everything, Glen Scotia’s open day during the Campbeltown Malts Festival got cancelled. Maybe ‘virtually’ isn’t the right word, because the virtual version is the one thing that did take place. To compensate the sadness that followed of … Continue reading →

Glen Scotia 2008-2018, 9yo, 55.9% – Kintra Whisky

Posted on 13 October 2020 by Sjoerd de Haan-Kramer

I might be a bit of a snob, but when I’m at a whisky festival, I veer towards the exclusive stuff. Random 9 year old whiskies I generally skip. Not just at festival but also in shops. Why? These can … Continue reading →

With every ten thousand new bottlings added to WhiskyBase they release a new whisky. Apart from that Whiskybase occasionally releases something extra, and this Glen Scotia was exactly that. It was released last year, at twelve years old from a … Continue reading →

Posted on 19 December 2019 by Sjoerd de Haan-Kramer

This bottle I picked up after the awesome tour and tasting at the distillery almost two years ago. I then got home and saw my credit card bill and decided to bottle-share a significant part of the haul from Scotland, … Continue reading →

Glen Scotia 15yo, 2001, Mashman’s Reserve, 58.2% – Distillery Only

Posted on 20 September 2019 by Sjoerd de Haan-Kramer

As with most Distillery Only bottlings, you actually have to go to the distillery to pick it up. Which is yet another good reason to visit such a little piece of heaven on earth. I picked this one up at … Continue reading →

Posted on 27 August 2018 by Sjoerd de Haan-Kramer

I got a sample of this in a share ages ago, and when selecting things to take with me on holiday for a bit of a drink at night, I grabbed it off the shelf finally. Contrary to previous years … Continue reading →

My accidental blend…

Posted on 18 June 2018 by Sjoerd de Haan-Kramer

Last week I blogged about Ardbeg and spontaneously comparing it to my ‘accidental blend’. This blending happening deserves a post of its own, which also is a bit of a ‘look at me fucking up’ post… I’ve embarrassed myself in … Continue reading →
