GlenAllachie 2008-2020, 11yo, 55.5% – OB for Denmark
I managed to get a sample of this PX cask GlenAllachie bottled for Denmark (thanks, GvB). Of course I didn’t write down all the details in time, which will show in the tasting notes… It was bottled this year, and … Continue reading
Strathmill 1988-2014, 26yo, 52.4% – The Whisky Warehouse No. 8
Strathmill is not a whisky you come across often. It’s mostly used for Diageo blends like J&B, since they took ownership of the plant and brand in 1997. Before that it was owned by Chivas, which also used it for … Continue reading

Strathisla 15, 40% – Gordon & MacPhail
While you can’t really see it in the title, this is some old shit. I got this in a recent sample swap and on that label, much like this title, it didn’t really say what it was. My first thought … Continue reading
Glen Moray 11, 55.2% – Kyrburg Selection
A very random bottling for a German whisky museum. Why Kyrburg would have a whisky museum is beyond me, but apparently it’s a thing. I got a sample from this last week, in a glass, and I had to quickly … Continue reading
Glenrothes 19, 1997-2017, 58.8% – Whiskybase
On of these 10,000*n bottles of Whiskybase. One I’ve had on my shelf for a while and never really got into, or got around to reviewing. In the end I sold some samples and it still took me three years … Continue reading
Glentauchers 18, 1996-2015, 48% – Claxton’s
18 year old Glentauchers should be pretty good right? Especially when bottled at 48%, which just happens to be my sort-of favorite spot for spirits to be bottled at. It’s also from a bourbon cask, so we should be getting … Continue reading
Secret Speyside 1994-2020, 26yo, 48.1% – WhiskyNerds
Little over a week ago the newest releases by WhiskyNerds were released. This time it’s a secret speyside and a Ledaig. Secret Speyside if often Glenfarclas, but as with most of these releases, a lot is based on assumption. In … Continue reading

Secret Speyside 1993-2020, 47.7% – Michiel Wigman
The fourth (or third, depending on how you look at it) of Michiel Wigman’s own whisky bottlings. Anyway, it was part of the second batch of two whiskies. Another of these secret distilleries that are so popular currently, with every … Continue reading

Burnt Ends, Blended Whisk(e)y, 45%
