Glen Garioch 2011-2023, Bourbon Cask, 52.1% – Liquid Art (10th Anniversary)
Another bottling from Liquid Art’s 10th anniversary, and from a distillery I recently visited and am thrilled with. Apparently it was bottled in 2023 already, which surprised me. I would expect that anniversary bottlings are from the anniversary year. Of … Continue reading

The Nectar 15 Years Tasting Box
Premise Last year my friend JPH and I bought a set of samples from Jon Beach, of Fiddler’s in Drumnadrochit. A massive splurge, but a series of great whiskies being surpassed by even better ones. This year, with Brexit being … Continue reading
