Ledaig 2007-2015, 8yo, 52.3% – Beacon Spirits

Posted on 22 October 2020 by

It’s with shame that I start this review. I got this sample from Bert Dexters, of Beacon Spirits, years ago and have completely missed it in reviewing. My sincere apologies, Bert. A young Ledaig as we have seen quite regularly … Continue reading →

Kilchoman 2007-2016, 8yo, 56.6% – OB for Feis Ile 2016

Posted on 5 October 2020 by

Four years ago I bought samples of almost all Feis Ile bottlings, along with some samples from the Campbeltown Festival. This is not one of those cases where I completely forgot about the samples and found them again, but mostly … Continue reading →

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

Posted on 7 January 2020 by

This bottle was the first one I emptied this year. Of course, it’s only been a week, but still. This also means I’ve not done anything on this blog that has been a staple since the beginning, with end-of-year lists … Continue reading →

Secret Speyside 2007-2018, 10yo, 55.2% – The Maltman

Posted on 9 December 2019 by

I’ve been told this bottling is a ten year old Macallan, but with how rare these things have become over the last couple of years I’m not 100% sure about that. Still, there’s a distinct possibility for it to be … Continue reading →

Posted on 6 December 2019 by

Yet another, but for now the last, sample from a The Whisky Exchange exclusive bottling. In this case it’s an Inchmoan whisky. Inchmoan is one of the brands of Loch Lomond Distillery, in this case the heavily peated version of … Continue reading →

Tamdhu 2007-2017, 10yo, 55.4% – Creative Whisky Company for Drinks & Gifts

Posted on 16 February 2019 by

This cask was bottled for my local bottle-shop last year. I had to check, but it was bottled for the 10th anniversary of the shop. Since their inception they’ve gone from a tiny cornershop to a much larger and more … Continue reading →

Kilkerran 11, 2007-2018, Sherry Butt, 58.1% – Cadenhead

Posted on 11 January 2019 by

I just opened up the stats on this Kilkerran on Whiskybase and it’s currently going for € 162. It was released in July, and back then it was not even € 80. It has already doubled in price. Maybe at … Continue reading →

Have you ever tasted Loch Ewe?

Posted on 11 November 2018 by

Tom van Engelen found another weird sample in his cupboard and decided to write about it. At some length, as we’ve come to expect. Fun additional fact: The Loch Ewe Distillery and the accompanying hotel appear to be for sale … Continue reading →

Glenallachie 10, 2007-2017, 64.7% – Adelphi

Posted on 8 November 2018 by

This sample is a fairly random one I found in my collection after ordering something from Dramtime.nl. Also, it is only the second Glenallachie from Adelphi ever, according to Whiskybase. I find that kind of surprising, but I guess that … Continue reading →

Travellers Distillery 10yo, Belize, 66.6% – The Duchess Rum

Posted on 27 February 2018 by

My whisky buddy Nils keeps releasing some nice casks of high end, and in this case high ABV, booze. Well, actually, Best of Wines in Bussum is, but he is more or less in charge of the spirits there. This … Continue reading →
