If you like a sweet peaty whisky, this is a bit special. You smell the peat before you get a chance to taste the wonderful sherry and dark fruit of this one. It starts with a hit of peat, then a taste of sherry, and a charred sweet oak finish. Nice!6.8 GBP per PourArdnamurchan Scottish Restaurant & Bar

Springbank 15 Year
Single Malt — Campbeltown, Scotland
Reviewed February 18, 2020 (edited April 13, 2022)Sweet, dried dark fruits and spices, but overwhelmed by a charred oak taste. Very full bodied and tannic. The aftertaste is a kind of sour ash that stays around for ages.6.3 GBP per Pour -
Kilkerran 12 Year
Single Malt — Campbeltown, Scotland
Reviewed February 18, 2020 (edited October 10, 2020)Sweet and smoky at first taste. The aftertaste is lemon, citrus and salt, and a strange, but not unpleasant, grapefruit taste. It’s a smooth, oily dram and, overall, very nice. I can’t help thinking another few years to rest might make it even better.5.02 GBP per Pour -
Speyside No.3 8 Year Old Batch 1 (That Boutique-y Whisky Company)
Single Malt — Speyside, Scotland
Reviewed February 16, 2020A strange combination of waxy apple, cinnamon and nutmeg. It’s quite smooth for a young whisky, and has a long caramel and wood finish. It’s growing on me, but the waxy flavour lingers more than I’d like. -
That Boutique-y Whiskey Company Longmore 10 Year (Batch 3)
Single Malt — Scotland
Reviewed February 15, 2020Strong alcohol up front, melting into a peppery taste with a hint of orange. It leaves a strangely herbal aftertaste and a long burn at the back of the throat. A little harsh for my taste.8.41 GBP per Pour -
I have a bit of a soft spot for Tamnavulin Double Cask. It was a major component of the blended whisky Whyte & MacKay that was my gateway into whisky as a student in the early 90s. It’s alcohol heavy up front but it moves into sweet caramel, with a load of raisin and plums. It has a nice long finish that starts to taste more like a rum. An easy drinking whisky.25.0 GBP per Bottle
