Glen Keith 1992 – Whisky-Fässle
Oh, the f-ing joy of sample trading… I’ve had this sample for about three years and I know I traded it with someone. I also know it’s a 1992 Glen Keith, bottled by Whisky-Fässle. However, that’s all the information there … Continue reading

Two other Archives: Glentauchers and Glen Keith
The ‘non-Speyside’ whiskies from the recent Archives release are a Glentauchers 1996 and a Glen Keith 1992. Obviously both are from the Speyside region, but they aren’t marked as an undisclosed Speyside distillery. Both are a bit weird in regards … Continue reading

Glen Keith 1995-2014, 19yo, 56.3% – Chivas Brothers, CS Edition
With Glen Keith it’s always a bit of a guess whether you’ll find the bottles in a web shop’s closed distilleries section or not. Technically, it’s not a closed distillery any more, but the sales that come from that term … Continue reading

Glen Keith 1992, 21yo, 51.5% – Archives (Fishes of Samoa)
Another Archives bottling from the Fishes of Samoa series. The guys at Whiskybase are using this label theme for quite a while, contrary to The Whisky Agency for example, who only have a theme for some four bottlings each time. … Continue reading

Blind Tasting Competition 12: Glen Keith 20yo, 1992-2013, 49.2% – The Perfect Dram
So, trying again today. Hopefully I remember to actually save my post manually before closing my browser. I got 20 points for region yesterday. I hope I get some more today. Not likely, but it would be nice. Somehow I … Continue reading

The Lost Distilleries Blend, Batch 4, 50.9% – The Blended Whisky Company/Master of Malt
As I’ve said plenty of times before, Master of Malt is not only a shop but also a bottler. Although, between the stuff they produce, have produced and bottle under one of their labels, you’d start to think it’s the … Continue reading
Hielander Whisky Festival 2013
The whisky festival in Alkmaar, hosted by Wullie MacMorland of The Hielander Scottish Restaurant is usually the first official whisky event of the year. This year it is no different. Funnily enough I go there every year with different people. … Continue reading

BTC sample 7 – Glenfiddich Brand Ambassador Samples
Well, no introduction today… I’ve run out of introductory crap to write. Sniff: Again, one of those thickly bourbon-cask-coated whisky that kind of hide the distillery character. Vanilla, simple syrup, pineapple. Thick creamy custard, lemon curd. Could be the same … Continue reading
