Bunnahabhain 1975, 36yo, 53.5% – Jack Wiebers

Posted on 12 January 2020 by Sjoerd de Haan-Kramer

In one of the scavenger hunts through the remainder of my samples I found this wee baby. A couple of centiliters from 45 years ago, bottled a rather long while ago by now. These old Bunnahabhains are a light and … Continue reading →

Posted on 28 May 2017 by Sjoerd de Haan-Kramer

It’s been two weeks since I’ve blogged. In those two weeks quite a lot has happened, varying from major life changing things to unimportant things that are fun to yap about. Baby On May 17th, our third child, Cato, was … Continue reading →

The sixth annual Blog Birthday Bash

Posted on 8 August 2016 by Sjoerd de Haan-Kramer

This here blog has been around for six years already. The actual date was August third, but that passed rather eventless. However, last Saturday was the annual barbecue-and-booze celebration. I made the fairly predictable huge hunks of pork again, although … Continue reading →

New bottle shares!

Posted on 18 May 2016 by Sjoerd de Haan-Kramer

Little over a month ago I wrote about still available bottle shares. I’m glad to find that most of those have all gone by now. I do have some new ones available though. Not as many, but a bit more … Continue reading →

A lot of new bottle shares, and some old ones

Posted on 12 April 2016 by Sjoerd de Haan-Kramer

A few months ago I wrote a short overview of bottle-shares that were still available then. Most of those have sold now except the Willett one. Can’t really blame people for not knowing this rather awesome distillery. What also doesn’t … Continue reading →

Rosebank 1975-2005, 30yo, 54.8% – Silver Seal, Sestante Collection

Posted on 8 September 2015 by Sjoerd de Haan-Kramer

Ever since I tried a 12 year old Rosebank Flora & Fauna some ten years ago this Lowlands distillery has been a favorite of mine. I think it’s a shame it’s gone and there is no other distillery that comes … Continue reading →

Millburn 1975-2001, 25yo, 61.9% – Rare Malts

Posted on 17 August 2015 by Sjoerd de Haan-Kramer

Millburn is one of those distilleries that you don’t come across often. I think most bottlers have had a bottle or two in their day, but it’s never been a high roller. I only ever had one bottle of an … Continue reading →
