Heaven Hill 2005-2015, Bourbon Barrel MoS15042, 52.1% – Malts of Scotland
I always thing it’s funny when a brand like ‘Malts of Scotland’ releases a whisky that’s neither a malt, nor from Scotland. Of course, with all the Irish stuff and American releases that are coming out from bottlers, this happens … Continue reading

Orkney Island 2005-2020, 14yo, 59.7% – Berry Bros & Rudd for Whiskybase
Of course this is Highland Park. All of the ‘undisclosed’ Orkney whiskies are Highland Park. This one was released sometime during the end of last year and I scored a bottle for bottle-sharing. I ended up with some 10cl for … Continue reading

Lichtburg, 15 year old Single Malt Irish Whiskey, 2005-2020, Armagnac Cask 2003, 57.5% – Rolf Kaspar
Of course, this an independent Irish whiskey without it stating from which distillery it comes. There’s a bit too much other information on the label though. It’s called Lichtburg for some arbitrary reason. It’s also labeled both as ‘Marika Single … Continue reading

Glenmorangie 15, 2005-2020, 58.1% – SMWS 125.77 (Graceful Elegance)

Loch Lomond 13, 2005-2018, 50% – Whiskybroker
This heavily peated Loch Lomond was bottled by Whiskybroker.co.uk in 2018, and if it was an official bottling this would have been called Croftengea, Inchmoan or Inchfad, since that’s how they brand their heavily peated whiskies normally. Because this is … Continue reading
