    So tonight is the last night before TIFF starts, so am celebrating it by reviewing this excellent Scotch. I thought about cracking open something new and interesting, but I still have a few open bottles… read more

    This is not the First Glen Ord that is bottled by Malts of Scotland. Last year I tasted a very nice 11 Year Old and only recently a slightly less 15 Year Old, both from the same house. This 12 Year Old,… read more

    We end the Glen Ord tasting with the lightests of the three. In colour, I mean. ABV-wise, this one is the heavyweight from the family with no less than 58,7%. Let’s see if it can compete with it’s younger… read more

  • Glen Ord 28 Year old - Cake and Mint tea

    I must confess, I find the age of 28 somewhat odd to bottle, especially given the fact that there is a 25 and 30 Year Old. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not complaining. This one has, coincidence or not, the… read more

    I was able, thanks to a good friend, to obtain samples of several official releases of Glen Ord : the 25 Year Old, 28 Year Old and 30 Year Old. Let’s try those head-to-head, shall we? Let’s start out with… read more

    It has been a while since I tasted some Glen Ord, so this week, I’ll be trying a few. I’m starting off with a 15 Year Old from Malts of Scotland. This is a very pale Glen Ord from a bourbon hogshead that… read more

    Nose: At first there seems to be a some sherry-casking in the vatting, with figs, rhubarb and raspberry, and even mint leaf sinking deep into a pool of honey and caramel. A secondary wave however brings… read more

    A couple of months (or years?) ago, Diageo dumped some of its premium whisky stock on the market. Suddenly € 600 bottles were available for € 200. One of them was this Glen Ord 30 years old, a limited … read more

    In 2006 Diageo launched The Singleton of Glen Ord for selected Asian markets. It is now however available at the distillery in the Muir of Ord. This whisky is worth going the distance, believe me. The… read more
