I’ll admit that I don’t know much about Springbank. I’ve tried only a few releases on only a few occasions. I usually find myself less captivated by the whisky than my friends or the online reviews. But…

If there’s one distillery that can marry peat and sherry beautifully, it’s Ardbeg. I mean, who doesn’t like the Oogie? But here’s the Ardbog, the widely anticipated annual release from 2013. It’s a ten…

What a bottle! The contents aren’t bad either. This is one that’s grown on me a fair bit. It’s just a touch different than the other bourbons on my shelf, and it’s one I tend to reach for more in the…
