Whisky Review #141: Bowmore 1999 15 Years Old (Douglas Laing Old Particular)

Hello everyone, it has been a very long time since my last review and for that I must apologise. Those of you who have been followers of this blog would be well aware that inertia can be a difficult thing to overcome and inspiration tends to strike at the most unusual of times. Well, here […]

Whisky Review #140: Teaninich 1999 19 Years Old (Claxton’s)

Teaninich is somewhat contradictory in the grand scheme of things for one particular reason: It is the 7th largest distillery in Scotland in terms of production capacity (10.2m litres of spirit produced annually), and yet is also one of the most obscure names in Scotch whisky due to the fact that 99% of its production […]

Whisky Review #139: Kilchoman 2007 12 Years Old Single Bourbon Cask

After what has been an extremely extended hiatus, I’m back! In truth, I hadn’t planned on returning to blogging for a while and thought that it was best to utilise the time to concentrate on my business. However, fate has a way of bringing things back into focus and this return to blogging has definitely […]

Whisky Review #138: Dailuaine 1973 22 Years Old (Rare Malts Selection)

After a near 4 month hiatus, I’m back once again. It has been a busy last few months and with the rest of the year shaping up to be a rather interesting and exciting journey, I am unsure if I would be able to sustain a regular blogging schedule. I will therefore endeavour to be […]

Whisky Review #137: Cadenhead Whisky Tasting

On the evening of the 22nd of October, I was invited by Mr Matthew Fergusson-Stewart, the Chief Marketing Officer of The Whisky Store, to a dinner which also showcased four exciting expressions from within the Cadenhead range. Most of us would be aware that Cadenhead is the oldest independent bottler in the world, having been […]

Whisky Review #136: Coleburn 1981 27 Years Old

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. The distillery was also an experimental workshop where different recipes and distillations were conducted in order to maximise the variety […]

Whisky Review #135: Laphroaig 1990 21 Years Old (Bottled By Silver Seal)

Laphroaig is one of my favourite distilleries and I have had the pleasure of sampling a myriad of expressions which are both of official and independent stock. While the classic Laphroaig notes consist of a whack of peat and other associated medicinal hints, there is a fair bit of variance with regard to the independent […]

Whisky Review #134: Linkwood 1973 12 Years Old

My reviews have become rather sporadic in nature over the last few months, partly for the usual reasons and partly due to the fact that I am currently recovering from surgery. That being said, the hope is that I once again find the time and the momentum to get back into the groove of things […]

Whisky Review #133: Bruichladdich Black Art 6.1 1990 26 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. During my time there, I […]
