First up, I’d like to wish everyone a very Blessed and Merry Christmas! Hopefully this day is spent in the company of family and friends, while enjoying good conversations, great food and even a stellar dram or three. This week’s review focuses on a dram from an illustrious distillery which has been experiencing a resurgence […]
Read more "Whisky Review #33: Glen Grant 10 Years Old"Diageo is a company that really gets around the place. Having owned a multitude of distilleries under various companies and partnerships (Distillers Company Limited, Scottish Malt Distillers etc) in the past and more recently as Grand Metropolitan and Guinness (before both merged to form the current incarnation, Diageo), they are the undisputed giants in the […]
Read more "Whisky Review #32: North Port 1979 20 Years Old (Rare Malts Selection)"Another week, another review. And somehow it inevitably comes back to Bruichladdich. If anything, this is a distillery that knows exactly how to make great whisky (and long may it continue!) The readers of this blog will know all too well just how much I love Bruichladdich. It is a distillery that goes about its […]
Read more "Whisky Review #31: Bruichladdich The Organic Scottish Barley"Bunnahabhain is one of those distilleries that many people would not have heard much of, let alone tried. But to say that it is a hidden gem would probably be a huge understatement.

But seeing as how both those […]

The most glaring issue with the whole debacle is…
As promised, this review is a continuation of the insight into the whiskies offered by The Single Cask at CHIJMES. I will be reviewing seven different whiskies (four of which are part of the Horizontal Laphroaig flight, two of which are from Clynelish and one from Mortlach). The common factor which ties these drams together? […]
Read more "Whisky Review #28: The Single Cask drams"NOTE: When I originally planned this article, I had intended to include an extensive review of the whiskies that I had tried during my prior visit as well as the whiskies that I had tried at the Grand Opening. However, upon further consideration, I have decided to provide a standalone review for those whiskies which […]
Read more "The Single Cask Official Grand Opening"Before I start, I would like to give a shoutout to my cousin Shawn Prashanth who generously purchased a bottle of the Bowmore 12 Years Old for me and requested that it be reviewed. This one is for you mate! Bowmore is a distillery that I have a deep affinity for and this can be […]
