Port Ellen 11 Year Old 1983 The Cooper’s Choice

Godsend Port Ellen 11 Year Old 1983 The Cooper’s Choice

This young Port Ellen, distilled in the last year that the (old) distillery was still operational, has been in the bottle for almost three times as long as it has ever spent in the cask. After all, this…

Mosstowie 1975 Connoisseurs Choice

Wood Mosstowie 1975 Connoisseurs Choice

Mosstowie was distilled at the Miltonduff Distillery between 1964 and 1981 by means of two Lomond stills. For me it is only the third time that I put this malt to the lips and the previous one was alr…

Glenlochy 1974 Connoisseurs Choice

Paper Glenlochy 1974 Connoisseurs Choice

Glenlochy... I checked my archives and it turns out that I last tasted Glenlochy in 2014! Moreover, this is only the fourth malt of this distillery, which closed in 1983, that I taste. That's really…

Port Ellen 24 Year Old 1982 Douglas of Drumlanrig

Sea Air Port Ellen 24 Year Old 1982 Douglas of Drumlanrig

In 2014 – an eternity ago in my experience – I already tasted a Port Ellen that was bottled by Douglas or Drumlanrig . However, it was a 27-year-old from 1983, bottled in 2010. The one that is now in the…

Rosebank 31 Year Old 1990 Release Two

In Good Hands Rosebank 31 Year Old 1990 Release Two

Two years ago Ian Macleod distillers, the new owner of Rosebank, launched a 30-year-old from the last stocks from 1990. I found it incomparably delicious. The expectations are therefore high for this…

Rosebank 19 Year Old 1989 Cadenhead’s

Straightforward Rosebank 19 Year Old 1989 Cadenhead’s

Very soon the Queen of the Lowlands will reopen because Ian Macleod Distillers is almost finished with the renovation of the Rosebank distillery. In the meantime, I'm happy to taste another cask strength…

Caperdonich 20 Year Old 2000 Signatory Vintage

Shampoo Caperdonich 20 Year Old 2000 Signatory Vintage

Signatory Vintage has no less than 48 releases of Caperdonich on record and this is one of them from 2000, bottled in those beautiful but clumsy decanters in 2021. Particularly interesting and aromatic…

Caperdonich 20 Year Old 1996 Cadenhead’s

Schnapps Caperdonich 20 Year Old 1996 Cadenhead’s

Slowly but surely, Caperdonich's cask are really starting to run out... This Speysider, built in 1897 as Glen Grant II, was closed in 2002 to finally being demolished in 2010. Surprisingly fresh and…

Banff 22 Year Old 1974 Connoisseurs Choice

Elegance Banff 22 Year Old 1974 Connoisseurs Choice

Oh, look now, my 10th Banff. This Speyside distillery closed its doors in 1983 and has since been demolished. There's only one official bottling, the 21-year-old from 1982 in the Rare Malts Selection,…

Teeling Wonders of Wood Second Edition

Piquant Teeling Wonders of Wood Second Edition

The first edition of the Teeling Pot Still in the Wonders of Wood series was matured on Chinkapin Oak and appealed to me, but I must confess that I am very much looking forward to this second edition…
