The fact that this is labeled as batch ‘008’ sounds rather presumptuous, if you ask me. I don’t think there’s a whisky company that doesn’t consider rebranding their entire line every six to eight years. So, from that perspective, it’s … Continue reading
Glengoyne 1972-2015, 45.2% – Malts of Scotland Diamonds
