  • Bunnahabhain 12 Year old - Average dram. Nice When It's Hot

    By Dougful on 3rd Sep 20102010-09-03T02:52:00

    I have quickly become a big fan of Black Bottle and was interested in trying the main offering from its largest component. This is not your common Islay. Nose: Raisin, Nail polish, Vanilla, Old lady's… read more

    By Dougful on 3rd Sep 20102010-09-03T02:30:00

    I hadn't even heard of Black Bottle prior to seeing it featured in connosr.com's beginner's whisky cabinet article, but boy I'm glad it was there. I had to do a little searching to find it in Kansas City,… read more

    By Dougful on 3rd Sep 20102010-09-03T00:49:00

    This is the first independent bottling that I have tried, and if this experience is any indicator, I look forward to sampling many more in the future. This is a Signatory Vintage bottling coming from a… read more

  • Edradour 2003 Port Cask #379 2nd Release - Berry Jam

    By markjedi1 on 2nd Sep 20102010-09-02T20:14:00

    Exceptional about this whisky is the fact that it isn’t finised after the usual maturation on bourbon or sherry casks… no, this one got the full maturation on port bodega butts, where previously port had… read more

    By markjedi1 on 1st Sep 20102010-09-01T18:49:00

    Edradour is, since 2002, very well known for its releases of finishes and single casks (while before, most of their outturn went into blends) as well as the heavily peated expressions under the name of… read more

  • Caol ila 12 Year old - Suggested Combo

    By francoiscote on 1st Sep 20102010-09-01T02:33:00

    Since the first day, this scotch is consistently my favorite. Tonight, while the girlfriend is a thousand km away, I tried a risky combo by combining it with the excellent 2002 album by Sigur Ros named… read more

  • Edradour 10 Year old - Not crazy about this one...

    By markjedi1 on 31st Aug 20102010-08-31T17:18:00

    This week I’ll be trying a couple expressions from what is called the smallest distillery in Scotland. I’ll begin with their standard bottling of the Edradour 10 Year Old. The nose, which I find rather… read more
