Glenburgie 27, 1995-2022, Hogshead 6668, 57.7% – Signatory Vintage for Wu Dram Clan
The last of the three bottlings for Wu Dram Clan’s third anniversary. I wonder whether they picked three because there’s three of them, or because they’re three years old. If it’s the latter, we’re in for some interesting follow up … Continue reading
Glenburgie 23, 1989-2012, Bourbon Barrel, 54.8% – Chester Whisky & Liqueur Company

Another wee bottle share I did a little while ago. There are a couple of groups on Facebook in which you can sell your own bottles and this one popped up in there a little while ago. I decided to … Continue reading
Glenburgie 1990-2003, 57.9% – Gordon & MacPhail Reserve
It’s a bit strange how I decide to purchase some whiskies. Generally, I buy with a purpose, at least the last couple of years. I want something from a specific distillery, or a specific age. Sometimes after tasting it at … Continue reading
The annual Bottom’s Up tasting at De Whiskykoning
This year I was invited again to join the Bottoms Up tasting in Den Bosch. Yesterday was the date and after a nicely long train journey I walked through my old home town to get to the shop just in time. … Continue reading
