Auchentoshan 18, Oloroso Sherry Cask, 55.8%
Even though I quite like Auchentoshan, and some of their whiskies are really good, I’m nowhere near as fanatical as Mark Dermul. I don’t think anyone is. This bottling caught my eye in 2006 when it came out. Auchentoshan, from … Continue reading

Auchentoshan 27yo, 1984, 53.0% – Whiskybroker.co.uk
Last year Master of Malt bottled a 27 year old Auchentoshan which I really enjoyed. Mark Dermul, the Toshan Man, had a rather different opinion on it, stating that it contained massive amounts of FWP and thereby raising the question … Continue reading

Auchentoshan 15, 48.4% – Douglas Laing’s Old Particular
Little over a week ago there was another Twitter Tasting held by Steve from The Whisky Wire. He’s rather active at organizing those, but since I’m able to participate every now and then, you won’t hear me complaining! This time … Continue reading
Auchentoshan Festival Bottling, 2009, 56.5%
Another Auchentoshan review in a short while. I bought a sample of this dram from The Toshan Man Mark Dermul since I generally like bourbon matured Auchentoshan, especially if it’s a properly selected active cask. Something they bottle for their … Continue reading
Auchentoshan Heartwood, 43%
Last year Auchentoshan released a couple of new bottlings for travel retail. These are the Springwood, Heartwood, Cooper’s Reserve, Silver Oak and Solera. Since I have not been travelling since then I have not seen them in shops but I … Continue reading
Auchentoshan Valinch 2012, 57.2%
I loved Auchentoshan Valinch 2011. That doesn’t automatically mean I bought a bottle, but in this case I did. At the moment it wasn’t one of the smartest decisions of the year, but for not even € 40 I couldn’t … Continue reading
Auchentoshan Solera, 48%
My first sip of the new Travel Retail Auchentoshans, and I start at the high end of the range. I have samples of (I believe) Heartwood and Springwood sitting in my cupboard waiting to be explored. The Solera is a … Continue reading
Auchentoshan 27, 58% – Master of Malt
Auchentoshan, one of the few remaining Lowlands distilleries, is one you come across rather often. Usually, though, not at this age. Between 8 and 15 years old is much more common, of course, but I don’t think I have ever … Continue reading
