Laphroaig Càirdeas Triple Wood, 59.5% – OB for Feis Ile 2019
Another Feis Ile bottling. One I must I admit I had already forgotten about. I’m pulling from a backlog of tasting notes since I’ve not been tasting much the last few months. It’s only very occasionally that I feel my … Continue reading

Caol Ila 10, 58.2% – OB for Feis Ile 2018
As every year, there’s a Caol Ila Feis Ile bottling. Even this year there are bottlings, even though there was no festival due to COVID-19. Also as always, Diageo tries to come up with something they haven’t done before for … Continue reading
Kilchoman 2007-2016, 8yo, 56.6% – OB for Feis Ile 2016

Bowmore, 56.1% – OB for Feis Ile 2014
Mostly, when a Feis Ile bottling comes out, there are ways of identifying it apart from the release for the festival. Lagavulin generally has an age, Ardbeg had some ridiculous theme, Laphroaig has a Cairdeas edition and so on. Bowmore … Continue reading
Bowmore 15, 55.4% – OB for Feis Ile 2012
It’s probably not a secret for anyone who has spent any time reading this wee blog, but I love me some Bowmore. Apart from some expressions that are just a bit too straight forward I think their lighter Islay character, … Continue reading

Caol Ila 10, 58.2% – OB, Feis Ile 2018
It’s been two weeks since I posted. I knew it’d been a while, but I didn’t realize it was that long. In those two weeks I’ve barely had a moment to myself, didn’t write any notes and didn’t even properly … Continue reading
