I only review whiskies, and I try to keep it short and sweet.... and backlogged with nearly 725 reviews I have yet to post on the app. 🤦🏽‍♂️

    Great caramel colour. Fruity nose with hints of apple. The palate is floral and malted barley. Finish is short. Not a bad dram.

    I'm being generous with my one star. It's awful.

    Great way to flavour a 7-Up, otherwise it's complete garbage. Unless you enjoy the taste of cherry flavoured cough syrup, that is. Then by all means: enjoy!

    Very nice whisky, with pineapple and orchard on the nose. The palate is baked spices and apple, with a body that is oily and full. Finish is fairly long. I'm impressed.

    A weak whisky that lacks a nose, though it has a redeemable palate with notes of cooked apples. It's... kinda nice in its blandness. It's easy drinking.

    Faithful to the name, that's for sure! It's good if this is your sort of thing. Lots of wood spices and, obviously, peat. It's sweet and bold, like an Octomore meets Lagavulin. Tasty!

    This is a VERY GOOD blend, and typical highlander. Some sherry on the nose, with dried fruit and baking spices. There's also a certain je-ne-sais-quoi nuttiness that creates balance to the overall flavour. Quite balanced.

    I like this whisky; it's very similar to a Bruichladdich. There's some heather, and peat, and honey. It's barely smokey, with the sweeter side taking predominance. Good stuff.

    What the hay! Noooo... This is not good. Wet hay, with strong bourbon influence (think vanilla and charred oak). It's floral, like your grandmother's terrible perfume, and remarkably weak in body. Not for me.

    82 is harsh, man. Real harsh. This is surprisingly good. It's sweet, with honey and malted barley on the nose. There are also touches of vanilla and fruit on the palate. Body is good, and finish is light and delicate with hints of walnut. Give it a try.
