This is a very pale Clynelish. Obviously a bourbon cask, bottled by the Meadowside Blending Company and marketed under the Maltman label. It was distilled in May 1998 and bottled after 13 years, in…

This is only my fifth Glen Scotia. My experience with this Campbeltowner are somewhat hit and miss, but it is reassuring to find this is bottled by Malts of Scotland, as they are reknowned for selecting…

This is one of those classic, old Glen Scotia. It was distilled in april 1966. Let us put that into context. It was the month in which the Russian Luna 10 circled the moon for the first time ever. Or the…

Glenturret is a rather unknown distillery among whisky fans, but when I say Famous Grouse, you know what I am talking about. I have tasted quite a few of those blends, with mixed results, but never has…

The first time I tasted this Tomatin 25 Year Old was at a Tomatin Tasting with the very funny Graham Nicholson, back in April 2011. It was so good that I purchased the remainder of the bottle to take…

This Tomatin was a gift from a friend. It was distilled in 1977 (the year Star Wars premiered) and bottled in 1998. There is hardly any OBE discernable here, even though it has been held captive in the…
