Kilkerran 15 year old, 2004-2019, Fino Cask, 51.6% – OB for Bresser en Timmer
I have absolutely no idea how this one slipped by me. Maybe because I just wasn’t paying attention, but normally if there’s anything from Campbeltown in a Fino Cask coming out, I need to have it. Because it is delicious, … Continue reading

Longrow 11yo, Refill Re-charred Sherry Butts, 56.9% – Springbank Society

We’re venturing into dangerous territory. Y’all know I absolutely worship Springbank for more or less everything they do. However, every now and the a wine cask release pops up and it’s getting sketchy. Mostly, because in general wine cask usage … Continue reading
Springbank 1992-2019, 47.7% – Whisky Kingdom & Duckhammers Rare & Fine
