Tomatin 1997-2014, 51% – The Whisky Agency / Liquid Library

Posted on 10 January 2019 by

When this came out I was planning a trip to Scotland with a couple of friends for the end of 2015. Also, Tomatin was suddenly widely available with some really good bottlings, so I decided to pick one up. What … Continue reading →

Inchmurrin 1996-2018, 51% – Malts of Scotland

Posted on 31 December 2018 by

I was just checking, but I’ve not reviewed an Inchmurrin since the triptych from the Whisky Nerds came out last year. I’ve had some in between and even guessed on right in a blind tasting I was at, a few … Continue reading →

What’s in a name? Double casking…

Posted on 23 December 2018 by

My friend Tom van Engelen has written another one of his posts comparing whiskies that should never be compared. Does a name really influence your experience of a whisky? I am not well acquainted with all those Viking expressions from Highland … Continue reading →

Glenmorangie 19, Finest Reserve, 43%

Posted on 19 December 2018 by

I somehow don’t review too many Glenmorangies, while I do really like the distillery’s output. This not reviewing many is mostly because their core range is very stable and they don’t do too many special releases. Also, a lot of … Continue reading →

Tullibardine 1993-2015, 22yo, 47.3% – Cadenhead

Posted on 5 December 2018 by

Tullibardine is not a distillery who’s whisky I love. I’ve only tried a handful of them, and I only ever bought one bottle by the SMWS which, when it was half empty, I took to Maltstock for other people to … Continue reading →

Clynelish 1997-2014, 17yo, 52.5% – The Whisky Cask for Dutch Whisky Society

Posted on 16 November 2018 by

Clynelish from 1997! Somehow that’s an epic year for Clynelish. Unfortunately I don’t know why it is that some years work so very well for some distilleries (1997 for Clynelish, 1995 for Bowmore, 1981 for Lochside, 1978 for Port Ellen, … Continue reading →
