Longrow 15, 2006-2022, Fresh Sherry Hogshead, 53.8% – The Cage
So, this might need some explanation for those who’ve never been to Campbeltown. In Campbeltown there’s Springbank Distillery and at the distillery they have a visitors center. At the visitors center there’s a cage with some bottles in them. This … Continue reading
Aberlour 12, 2006-2018, Barrel 102, 56.8% – Archives
An older review today. Lately I’ve been emptying some bottles and a LOT of samples, ever since the beginning of the year. A couple dozen that I’ve gone through since were not reviewed here yet, and I even found some … Continue reading
Unnamed Orkney 16, 2006-2022, Refill Butt DRU17/A65#4, 46% – The Ultimate
It’s been a while since I tried anything by The Ultimate. Generally I don’t really buy into the brand since I often find the whisky a little bit lackluster. Often bottled too young, under ten years old. That’s not necessarily … Continue reading

A Speyside Distillery 16, 2006-2022, Sherry finish, 52.1% – Thompson Brothers
With the Thompson Brothers opening up a bottle shop in Dornoch, I am really hoping things pan out and I am able to visit the place at the end of October. A small trip to that part of Scotland is … Continue reading
Secret Orkney 16, 2006-2022, Bourbon Hogshead, 48.2% – Wu Dram Clan
I am very bad at reading things in time. Or reviewing things in time, but that’s another discussion. I knew this bottle was coming out due to the Wu Dram Clan making some noise about it on Social Media. Of … Continue reading
Teeling 15, 2006-2022, Amburana Hardwood Cask 6210, 57.8% – OB for The Duchess
When this came out the thing I first did was look up what the rulings and regulations for Irish Whiskey are. Amburana is, as you might have guessed, not oak. It’s a Brazilian kind of hardwood not often used for … Continue reading
