Latest batch of Kilkerran 16y/o
Will always love this drop, it’s one of the more syrupy Macallans I’ve tried and definitely smooth and full of flavour!
Lovely drop this, I revisit it when I can. Not a power punch but quality liquid and beautiful flavour!
Ben Nevis 10y/o Australian Whisky Icons - The Elysian Bar The WhiskySponge 57.1%ABV 30ml
That dream balance/blend of chewy islay peat and cask sweetness and influence. What Laga 16 used to be, but better (and 48%!).
Beautiful, deep, you’ll never forget it !!
Becoming a new fan of Bunnahabhain!
Nose: A rich herbal aroma intertwined with bonfire smoke, evoking imagery of a seaside campfire. Notes of sea salt, struck matches, and subtle roasted orange peel linger behind the smoky veil.
Palate: Medium to full-bodied with a distinct oily texture. The high proof delivers a robust entry, blending sweet spices with peat, accented by a faint trace of sulfur.
Finish: Long and warming, with persistent ashy smoke and briny sea breeze. Hints of matchstick and a delicate iodine note round it out.
With Water: The aroma reveals pronounced wet sea salt and brine, with the smokiness softening into a rounder profile. Vanilla and oak emerge prominently. On the palate, the sweetness persists, with the peat becoming less intense, giving way to caramelized oak and fruit notes.
A gentle giant. This old grain whisky doesn’t try to shout, but it has plenty to say if you’re listening. A soft, elegant dram with aged sherry cask influence, balancing fruit, leather, oak, and just a whisper of tobacco. If you’re chasing subtle complexity over brute strength, this hits the mark.
Longrow Red 11y/o Cabernet Sauvignon Cask 52.1%ABV 30ml
We had a blinded whisky testing of 10 unpeated whisky and Springbank won the comp.
Excellent: very smooth, good balance and not too strong.
I ordered a red gum and stringybark smoked single malt combo and loved being able to compare the pair. It was awesome. Thanks Horny Pony!
A complex aged nose. Leather, dark chocolate mousse, dehydrated raspberries, canned peaches, and fermentation funk. Dark with tropical notes that bring it to life. To taste, mandarin syrup with spices; cloves and cinnamon. There’s an incense smokiness to the dram as well, bringing forward more rose and berry notes. A delightful example of an aged whisky, but potentially one that can be sourced for a slightly cheaper price. Claims of uniqueness can be a touch overrated, but still worth the experience.
