Glenfarclas 10 Year Old

My bar sample tasted cheap Glenfarclas 10 Year Old

I figured that I would probably like Glenfarclas, so I tried their entry level one at the bar for one glass. My memory and notes on it from weeks ago was that it just tasted cheap, almost like a budget…

Dalwhinnie 15 Year Old bottled 1980s

A disappointment Dalwhinnie 15 Year Old bottled 1980s

After reading how this one is distilled in an isolated area in the forest, it sounded like a winner. I ordered one glass at the bar. Inoffensive, but also uneventful like a Glenlivet 12.

Wathen's

Worth searching for Wathen's

This is a wonderful Single Barrel Bourbon that is distilled in Owensboro, Kentucky. I can only find it in one store near where I live, so it is worth finding. It sells for $35 US and can probably be…

Scapa 16 Year Old

I should have listened at the bar Scapa 16 Year Old

After sampling and responding with my impressions, the bar maid got a hang of what I liked and did not like. I asked about this and she told me that I would not like it. I came back on another evening…

Pappy Van Winkle Jr. Old Weller Antique 107 Brand

When I first began my bourbon quest in 2010, I had finally gotten my hands on a bottle of Pappy Van Winkle 15. Then I had a strong hunch that this OWA107 is basically the same mashbill that is aged 8…

Dalmore 12 Year Old

A good malt worth considering Dalmore 12 Year Old

This was another one ordered at the bar that almost impressed me enough to bring a bottle home. I amy taste it again one day to see if my opinion changes, but at this time I already have enough good ones…

Glenrothes Robur Reserve

A good suggestion from the bar Glenrothes Robur Reserve

This one is heavy malt and sherry, similar to a cross between Glengoyne 10 and Glenmorangie Quinta Ruban. The bartender who suggested this one even agreed with my quick evaluation. This is a good malt…

Glenlivet 18 Year Old

Good but not great Glenlivet 18 Year Old

I tried this one at the bar. At first I was impressed with the perfect swetness and sherry flavors. But there is no smoke, and many others taste similar and cost a lot less. If this is all they have at…
