Bowmore 20, 1997-2018, Refill Sherry cask 2414, 56.3% – Adelphi
Adelphi still is a bottler that generally puts out high quality whiskies. I do think success is not as guaranteed as it was a decade ago, but they’re still way above average. Of course, prices are way above average too, … Continue reading
Ardnamurchan Release 3, AD/04.21:03, 46.8%
The third release of Ardnamurchan was released last week. In the Netherlands at least. Of course, the shops that had it first sold out instantly, and by the end of the week the rush was already over and it’s available … Continue reading
Ardnamurchan Batch 1 and 2!
Last September the first official release of Ardnamurchan happened. And if you’ve never been to a whisky festival between 2017 and early 2020, you might have never tasted their spirit either. It’s quite the anticipated distillery, since Adelphi, who runs/owns/built … Continue reading
Adelphi / Whisky Import Nederland Virtual Tasting

Mortlach 1993-2018, 56.1% – Adelphi
It’s been both a slow and a busy week here. Not many posts in the last week or so, mostly because I’ve been quite busy, or so tired from being busy that blogging was far from the first time on … Continue reading
Glenallachie 10, 2007-2017, 64.7% – Adelphi
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
The Winter Queen, 9yo, 52.7% – Fusion Whisky
The blending of whiskies from different countries is nothing new. Ages ago this was done with American and Irish whiskeys, and in more recent years Bruichladdich mixed their product with some Irish whiskey as well. Now, under the flag of … Continue reading
Whiskies of the year: Runners up
I published the post with my whisky of the year last Monday. Generally I do the runners up first, or all in one post or so, but in this case it was a brand new whisky that I had not … Continue reading
