Kavalan 5, 2015-2021, Vinho Barrique, 55.6% – OB for The Netherlands

Kavalan 8yo, 2006-2015, Peaty Cask, 53.2% – OB for WhiskyNerds
A little while ago, I guess just in early December, Bram and Floris (the WhiskyNerds) announced their second cask. They did a GlenDronach earlier in the year which I (shamefully) have not reviewed yet. I have been enjoying it since … Continue reading

Kavalan Solist Sherry Cask, 58.6%, cask S060710004
While I should technically do another two whisky reviews before getting to this one, as this one was the last whisky of the evening, I decided to skip them as those two bottles were the Bowmore Tempest Batch 3, and … Continue reading
