Arran Sherry Cask, bottled in 2022, 55.8%
Like the previous BenRiach, this one was used in a whisky tasting. I pitted it against is NAS sibling from bourbon casks, called ‘The Bothy’. I’ll review that one shortly. Apart from being on Arran last year, there’s not much … Continue reading
BenRiach ‘The Twelve’, Bourbon & Sherry & Port Casks, 46%
Another BenRiach I used for a tasting at work last year. A tasting where 22 people emailed me to join in and only 9 showed up. Yes, I’m still annoyed by that. Anyway, I used this BenRiach to compare unpeated … Continue reading

Even though the distillery isn’t even 30 years old, I think Arran have been on the right track for quite a while. They’re not really doing anything all that different from many of the other distilleries, but they do things … Continue reading
Lagavulin 19, Feis Ile 2019, Sherry Treated American Oak Casks, 53.8%
Another Lagavulin for Feis Ile! I knew I had this on the shelf, and I had carefully sipped from my sample before, but never got around to writing a review yet. A good thing that a holiday came up a … Continue reading
3x Hooghoudt Genevers

Longrow 15, Oloroso Hogsheads, 56.2% – Open Day 2022
