Glengoyne 12 Year
Single Malt — Highlands, Scotland
Reviewed July 1, 2017 (edited September 13, 2017)Good whisky, but a bit too sharp on the front end. The main flavor is biscuits and honey. A bit of a one note offering. -
Glenfiddich 14 Year Bourbon Barrel Reserve
Single Malt — Speyside, Scotland
Reviewed July 1, 2017 (edited July 20, 2017)Excellent dark chocolate and dark cherry notes. The fruitiness up front is bold, and the bourbon stays with you the whole time you taste. Wonderful, strong flavor. -
Old Pulteney 12 Year
Single Malt — Highlands, Scotland
Reviewed July 1, 2017 (edited October 1, 2017)Another great whisky not spoiled by a brand name. They spend more time making good whisky than good commercials. Full, rich, honest straight forward whisky. -
Springbank 10 Year
Single Malt — Campbeltown, Scotland
Reviewed July 1, 2017 (edited August 12, 2017)I love the story behind the whisky as well as the flavor. Wonderfully complex, seaside notes that I enjoy, and with each taste, layer after layer reveal a depth that belies the cost. Absolute must have for any Scotch drinker. -
Highland Park 12 Year
Single Malt — Islands, Scotland
Reviewed July 1, 2017 (edited August 12, 2017)Delicious offering, especially for the price. A great starter for someone flirting with peat for the first time. I love the straight up Scotch flavors here. A real classic. -
Laphroaig Càirdeas 2013 Port Wood Edition
Single Malt — Islay, Scotland
Reviewed July 1, 2017 (edited August 12, 2017)Fantastically complex Islay. Laphroaig is not my go-to as far as Islay whisky goes, but this offers more depth than the 10yr expresion. I would definitely let this settle down in the glass before tasting -- especially when you first open the bottle. The initial impression is very strong, and the extra time to settle in the glass will civilize and tame this impressive spirit. -
Monkey Shoulder Blended Malt
Blended Malt — Speyside, Scotland
Reviewed July 1, 2017 (edited September 4, 2017)Good, bright whisky made more for mixed drinks than sipping. Fruity, bright notes make a great whisky flavor that stands out.
