From the second series of Michiel Wigman’s They Inspired range comes this Bunnahabhain. I had a bit of a shock when it was released since I had just started participating in his ‘you get every bottle’ program, and suddenly there … Continue reading

Wardhead 23, 1997-2020, 52.1% – Michiel Wigman
As far as blended malts go, this one keeps things very close. It’s 99.999% Glenfiddich with a teaspoon of Balvenie, if that has even been added and not only stated to have been added. Anyway, it’s not the first Wardhead, … Continue reading

Islay Single Malt 13, 2009-2023, 53.3% – Michiel Wigman
This entire thing I’m doing (and many others with me) of whisky blogging is really fun, quite a bit of work and sometimes utterly confusing. Sometimes you try something that you expect everyone to love and it just falls flat. … Continue reading

Longmorn 10, 2011-2022, 52.4% – Michiel Wigman ‘They Inspired’ (part deux)
So, back in April I reviewed Michiel’s latest escapade by tasting his Longmorn 10 from 2011. As said in that post, I should have added water but I didn’t, even though I was specifically instructed to do so. Michiel being … Continue reading

Contrary to almost all bottlings by Michiel Wigman, this is an official bottling done for him, instead of an indie bottling done by the man himself. To stay in line with the whisky icons of the ‘They Inspired III’ series, … Continue reading

Longmorn 10, 2011-2022, 52.4% – Michiel Wigman ‘They Inspired’
I guess by now not much of an introduction is needed for the ‘They Inspired’ series by Michiel Wigman. Single cask whisky, selected by the master himself, with a portrait of someone on the label that Michiel finds inspiring. We’ve … Continue reading

If you’ve been reading my blog for a while, you might have noticed that virtually all of Michiel Wigman’s whiskies have been reviewed here. I bet I missed some, and I do know I have some other spirits of his … Continue reading
Glentauchers 2008-2021, Sherry cask, 52.3% – Michiel Wigman ‘They Inspired III’
Another second for Michiel Wigman, this time a Glentauchers. The previous one was a younger port cask, and this time it has a few more years, and a different maturation. Personally, I accept that there are tremendous Port casks available … Continue reading
