  • Tullamore D.E.W. XO Rum Cask

    Quality needs to be unlocked here, too much spirit, spice and strong citrus neat to be overly enjoyable. A drop of water reveals the creamy toffee & banana from the official tasting notes. 81/100 Continue reading

  • Tullamore D.E.W. Original

    A great introductory whiskey to the Tullamore range or ‘Blended’ Irish whiskey category. All very pleasant, perhaps a hint more wood smoke and spice than I remember on previous tastings? 83/100 Continue reading

    Oddly we sampled this completely independently of the 12 year stock bottle that we are still nursing at home and came away much less impressed. I’m not sure how much batch variation there is but the previous bottling had much… Continue reading

  • Evan Williams Black Label Bourbon

    A pleasant enough Bourbon with hints of spice and mint, plenty of Corn and Rye grain influences. Less wood influence than I like in my Bourbon or would prefer but pretty solid nonetheless. 80/100 Continue reading

  • Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Rye

    A deliciously sweet and polished expression, a lot smoother with that distinctive feel on the palate that comes from charcoal filtration, quite in-spicy for a rye expression, full of cinnamon dusted pastries and ripe fruits. 84/100 Continue reading
