Inchmurrin 42yo, 1973-2016, 44.3% – Cadenhead

Posted on 14 October 2020 by

One of these samples I found in my collection. Yet again. Inchmurrin, as some of you will know, is one of the many brands of Loch Lomond Distillery in Alexandria, near the loch of the same name. Inchmurrin is one … Continue reading →

Blended Scotch Whisky, 20yo, 1998-2019, 44.6% – Cadenhead’s Club

Posted on 3 July 2020 by

The Cadenhead’s Club is a club I became aware of some two or three years ago. It’s similar to the Springbank Society (no surprise there, them being run from the same building, by the same owner), with a £ 50 … Continue reading →

Bruichladdich 27, 1998-2016, 50.2% – Cadenhead’s Authentic Collection

Posted on 29 June 2020 by

I love Cadenhead’s and I love Bruichladdich. Not everything from both these places is awesome, but when Bruichladdich comes from a ‘normal’ cask, my level of trust rises. I got this when it came out years ago and have slowly … Continue reading →

Laphroaig 20yo, 1998-2018, 54.3% – Cadenhead

Posted on 27 May 2020 by

Since yesterday was Laphroaig’s day on Feis Ile (if I’m not mistaken), I decided to do a very private version of that, by finally drinking this sample of a 20 year old bottling from Cadenhead. It’s a mix of two … Continue reading →

Guest post: The Battle of the Benrinnes (1979 vs 2000)

Posted on 18 May 2020 by

It’s been some time, but I’ve got another guest-post lined up for you! My friend Tom van Engelen wrote about his experience comparing two Benrinnes to each other. Their distillation date is more than two decades apart so there should … Continue reading →

Old Pulteney 1990-2015, 53.7% – Cadenhead

Posted on 7 May 2020 by

I’m looking north again, in regards to whisky. Not necessarily to Scotland, which is entirely north of The Netherlands, but mostly to Orkney, Sutherland, Caithness and the Highland Council regions of Scotland. Distilleries like Balblair, Old Pulteney and Highland Park … Continue reading →

Glen Moray 24, 1992-2017, 50.9% – Cadenhead

Posted on 2 May 2020 by

Glen Moray is one of those distilleries that make an amazing spirit, but in their own releases there’s often so much done to it, that it loses its greatness. A quick search on the internet reveals there’s a Cabernet, Sherry, … Continue reading →

Springbank 2001-2010, 8yo, Cognac Cask, 58.5% – Cadenhead

Posted on 29 April 2020 by

Back in 2010 I went to Scotland for the first time. My wife and I decided to do things right and we had some money in our pockets. I had just sold my Magic: The Gathering collection, something I now … Continue reading →

Caol Ila 34yo, 1982-2016, 60.1% – Cadenhead

Posted on 27 April 2020 by

Back in 2016 when I bought two sizable samples of this, I wasn’t overly impressed. I don’t remember why and I don’t remember what I expected. However, it made me forget sample number two until recently, when I could try … Continue reading →

Benrinnes 1995-2019, 51.1% – Cadenhead

Posted on 13 April 2020 by

During 2018 and 2019 Cadenhead released quite a few of Benrinnes from the first half of the nineties. Some where in their small batch series, like this one, but there were some single casks too, as well as some bottlings … Continue reading →
