Royal Brackla 12 Year Old Batch 1 (That Boutique-y Whisky Company)
Single Malt — Speyside, Scotland
Reviewed December 7, 2019 (edited February 11, 2020)Smoky, spicy and sweet on the nose. Syrupy and spicy body. Bit of an alcohol burn on the finish. Overall pretty good. Advent calendar day 7. -
Auchentoshan Three Wood
Single Malt — Lowlands, Scotland
Reviewed November 23, 2019 (edited November 28, 2019)Very, very sweet nose--lots of caramel and sugar. Could pass for a glass of port. Tobacco and maple syrup, with a bit of astringent finish. -
Bruichladdich The Classic Laddie Scottish Barley
Single Malt — Islay, Scotland
Reviewed November 22, 2019 (edited December 16, 2019)This one is really interesting! It's an unpeated Islay--tiny bit of smoke, very floral and spicy, with a lingering salty tartness. Makes me want to try some of their other expressions. -
Balvenie Peat Week 14 Year (2003 Edition)
Single Malt — Speyside, Scotland
Reviewed November 20, 2019 (edited May 7, 2020)Another really special Balvenie. The peat in this was intense but also unique--more multidimensional, evolving to a campfire ash that lingered at the end.
