Read more "Whisky Review #137: Cadenhead Whisky Tasting"Coleburn is one of those distilleries that not many are familiar with, primarily due to the fact that the whisky was used for the various blends within the DCL/UDV/Diageo stable during its years of operation.

That being said, the hope is that I once again find the time and the momentum to get back into the groove of things […]
Read more "Whisky Review #134: Linkwood 1973 12 Years Old"Most of you would know that I absolutely adore Bruichladdich and the whiskies that they produce. I had the privilege of working at Bruichladdich distillery during my return trip to Islay last month and had the pleasure of working with the staff from both the bottling line and warehouse departments.
