Posted on 24 October 2019 by Sjoerd de Haan-Kramer

… And as far as my experience with those bars goes, that means Fiddlers’ in Drumnadrochit. I bought this last June when I was there with one of my best friends, JPH. We spent the night there, while drinking too … Continue reading →

Port Charlotte, 13yo, 2001-2015, Fresh Oloroso cask, 61.6% – Private Cask for Aart Appeldoorn

Posted on 26 September 2016 by Sjoerd de Haan-Kramer

It’s been a while since I tried a Port Charlotte. It also seems the private casks and indie bottlings have gotten fewer in the last couple of years (maybe since Remy Cointreau took over?), but I got this sample from … Continue reading →

As a bonus and since you have to go out on a bang Jon also poured me a dram of one of the many Port Ellens that he has in his collection. For some reason he decided to start collecting … Continue reading →

Brora 25, 1978 – 2004, 57% – SMWS

Clynelish 17 Year Old, Manager’s Dram, 61.8%

Posted on 25 October 2013 by Sjoerd de Haan-Kramer
