Inchfad 16, Bottled in 2023, PX Finish, 53.2% – Dràm Mòr
When Ralfy’s review of this whisky popped up I watched it, and it was the first one I watched in ages. I immediately ordered a bottle (although I should check with the shop, since it’s not in yet). Of course, … Continue reading

Ardnamurchan 6, 2016-2023, 1st Fill American Oak PX Sherry Butt, 60.6% – SMWS 149.3 (A Walk in the Woods)
Even though I think Ardnamurchan is a distillery that is doing very, very well, they don’t often find their way to my shelf. It maybe has to do with me not paying attention, or simply that there’s so much out … Continue reading

Whitlaw 10, 2013-2023, Oloroso Sherry Cask 1789, 47.5% – Càrn Mòr
For some unknown reason I though Whitlaw was an Autralian of New Zealand distillery. I have no idea where that comes from, but I was very wrong of course. I didn’t taste this exactly blind, but this did blind me … Continue reading

Springbank 24, Open Day 2023, Oloroso & Port, 47.6%
It’s been quiet on the blog here. Mostly due to me being insanely busy with work and preoccupied with other, non-whisky things. In all honesty, I have missed having time to sit down with a couple of drams, so I’m … Continue reading

Longrow 8, Distillery Open Day 2023, Oloroso Cask, 54.9%

The Arranach is a cask thingy happening at Arran distillery on the island of the same name. Back when I was there in early 2022 I don’t think these wee bottles were available. There were several distillery only bottlings, but … Continue reading
