Longrow 7 Years Old 2000 Gaja Barolo whisky review: A superb expression, perhaps a touch spirity/alcoholic which belies its youth but a complete absence of spice means this mixture of smoke and red fruits is an absolute winner for me. 89/100
Longrow 7 Years Old 2000 Gaja Barolo Finish (55.8%, OB, 12120 Bottles, 2008)
Foursquare Hereditas 14 Years Old (56%, The Whisky Exchange, 2520 Bottles, 2019)
Foursquare Hereditas 14 Years Old Rum Review: A sweet easy drinking rum that takes water well. 85/100
Glenburgie 21 Years Old Black Friday 2019 Edition (53.1%, The Whisky Exchange, 1800 Bottles, 2019)
Glenburgie 21 Years Old Black Friday 2019 Edition Whisky Review: OK, better at cask strength though tinny. Good tropicality showing age in fruit but feels like quite an underactive cask and a bit of an odd choice. With water becomes sharper, more limey and spicy with cinnamon. 85/100
Linkwood 18 Years Old 1997 Old Malt Cask (50%, Hunter Laing, HH #11565, 257 Bottles, 2015)
Linkwood 18 Years Old 1997 Old Malt Cask Whisky Review: Still fairly basic with much spirit lead flavour akin to the 10 year old, some deeper flavours in here thanks to longer maturation but I’m still not loving this one. 82/100
Linkwood 10 Years Old Batch 7 (48.2%, TBWC, 1634 Bottles, 2019 )
Linkwood 10 Years Old Batch 7 Whisky Review: Very lemony with an odd salinity and minerality. Under-active casks? Sour spicy and spirity, not for me. 77/100
Loch Lomond 11 Years Old 2006 Limited Edition Single Cask (53.1%, OB, Cask #40, 282 Bottles, 2017)
Loch Lomond 2006 Limited Edition Single Cask #40 Whisky Review: A superb fruity, earthy and smoky single cask expression from Loch Lomond. 89/100
Loch Lomond 13 Years Old 2005 The Single Cask (57.5%, Claxton’s, Cask #1962413, 286 Bottles, 2018)
Loch Lomond 13 Years Old 2005 The Single Cask Whisky Review: lovely, a really nice thick and greasy fried banana and smoke element in here as well as plenty of malty cereal and fruity spirit. 87/100
Loch Lomond 19 Years Old Royal Portrush (50.3%, OB, 2019)
Loch Lomond 19 Years Old Royal Portrush Whisky Review: A superb expression bursting with black and red fruits, matured to perfection. As a fan of both red wine and whisky it is always a pleasure when they come together well like this edition. 89/100
Loch Lomond The Open Special Edition 2019 (46%, OB, 2019)
Loch Lomond The Open Special Edition 2019 Whisky Review: A lovely stone fruit nature to this with plenty of peach and apricot complemented by some great oak cask influence also. 85/100
Loch Lomond Signature (40%, OB, 2020)
Loch Lomond Signature Whisky Review: A very well constructed blend, sweet and sour, more than a touch of dusty oak and plenty of sherry influence. This feels like a blended whisky designed to be taken neat. 83/100
