Peatside 10, 2011-2021, ex-Madeira Cask 5541, 53.2% – Kintra Whisky
Instead of ‘Tomorrow’ this review shows up 6 days after the previous Kintra Whisky. This one is an undisclosed whisky from a peated distillate. If memory serves even the bottler, Erik Molenaar, doesn’t know the distillery this whisky was made … Continue reading
Unnamed Orkney 16, 2006-2022, Refill Butt DRU17/A65#4, 46% – The Ultimate
It’s been a while since I tried anything by The Ultimate. Generally I don’t really buy into the brand since I often find the whisky a little bit lackluster. Often bottled too young, under ten years old. That’s not necessarily … Continue reading
Highland Malt Whisky 11, 2010-2022, Barrel 2534, 58.1% – Whiskybase Gathering 2022
It is a public secret that this whisky is an 11 year old Clynelish. Not always do you get to know which distillery a ‘secret <enter region here>’ whisky is from, but in this case, Whiskybase didn’t really hide it. … Continue reading
Unnamed Islay 30, 1991-2022, Bourbon Barrel 2674, 51.4% – Signatory Vintage for Wu Dram Clan
To celebrate their third anniversary, Wu Dram Clan released three very different whiskies. A Caperdonich, a Glenburgie and an Unnamed Islay. The Islay one is reviewed today, the other two will follow shortly, but with a week of Islay whiskies … Continue reading
Thalassa Whisky 10, 2011-2022, 55% – King Cask
Another one of those weird whiskies from King Cask. And by weird I am talking about the way it came to be instead of the actual whisky. This one, with an ‘Origin near the Falls of Bruar’, or as is … Continue reading
Distilled at an Islay Distillery, 2008-2022, 53.9%, Wu Dram Clan Community
For some distilleries there is a great vintage. For others, there seem to be nothing but great vintages. At least, if you don’t count the entire 1980s decade. Of course, with a whisky called ‘Kilarrow Parish Church Bowmore’ as a … Continue reading
Secret Speyside 24, 1997-2022, 2 Refill Barrels, 50.3% – Thompson Brothers
Yet another undisclosed distillery. It is almost like that is a thing nowadays. This time it’s a Speyside one, just like yesterday. However, according to retailers, Whiskybase and most likely other sources of information, this is a bottling from Glenlivet. … Continue reading
Secret Islay 20, 2002-2022, Sherry cask, 53.1% – Earlskine
After the first batch of Earlskine whiskies, there is now a new bottling. This time it is an undisclosed Islay whisky, with some hints on the label that leave exactly one option. So, there’s little guessing there. I like that … Continue reading
A Speyside Distillery 16, 2006-2022, Sherry finish, 52.1% – Thompson Brothers
With the Thompson Brothers opening up a bottle shop in Dornoch, I am really hoping things pan out and I am able to visit the place at the end of October. A small trip to that part of Scotland is … Continue reading
Secret Orkney 16, 2006-2022, Bourbon Hogshead, 48.2% – Wu Dram Clan
I am very bad at reading things in time. Or reviewing things in time, but that’s another discussion. I knew this bottle was coming out due to the Wu Dram Clan making some noise about it on Social Media. Of … Continue reading
