Whisky Advent Calendar, days 13 to 19…

GlenDronach 1995, 19yo, PX Puncheon, 55.4% – OB for The Whisky Exchange

Heelslaying, or bottle ends in March
When the year started I announced how much smaller my collection had to be by the end of the year. Then, as more people were planning such escapades there was a twitter hashtag with updates on emptied bottles. I posted … Continue reading

GlenDronach 20yo, 1994-2014, Cask #3400, 54.8% – Bottled for Abbey Whisky
Last year I tried a GlenDronach that I really regret not getting a bottle of. Strangely though, I tried again in the Blind Tasting Competition and I wasn’t fond of it. Others had the same experience but upon trying that … Continue reading

GlenDronach 21yo, 1993-2014, Cask #23, 52.1% – OB for WhiskyBase
When this bottling was announced I knew right away that I wanted it. Somewhat strange because not all my experiences with GlenDronachs are that good and I’ve had at least one single cask from 1994 that I just didn’t like … Continue reading
Blind Tasting Competition 13: GlenDronach 1993-2013, 20yo, 59.1%, cask #33 – Abbey Whisky
The last third of the competition commences now. We’ve had 12 drams so far with a possible 1200 points to score. I am slightly ashamed that I’ve not even managed to get 300 points, I’m at 292 at the moment … Continue reading

Bottoms Up!
Tonight a couple of friends and I are going to try and get my open-bottle-count down somewhat. Since I’ve been trying to do this on my own last year I found that a) it doesn’t work that well, and b) … Continue reading
