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 The Open Special Edition 2019 (46%, OB, 2019)
Tomatin 15 Years Old 2003 Moscatel (46%, OB, 6000 Bottles, 2018)
Tomatin 15 Years Old 2003 Moscatel whisky review: Flavourful and rich, balanced sweetness and oak and some lovely bright fruits in here. Tomatin’s spirit is quite delicate and this enhancement complements it well. 86/100
Kingsbarns Dream to Dram (46%, OB, 2019)
Kingsbarns Dream to Dram Whisky Review: Good texture for a new/young whisky, delightfully not over-vanillic or over-oaked, the fruit and spice is delicately balanced. 85/100
Glasgow 1770 Triple Distilled No.1 (46%, OB, 2020)
Glasgow 1770 Triple Distilled No.1 whisky review: An interesting expression with plenty of florality and character, very drinkable and didn’t strike me as particularly young – even though I know it must be. 83/100
Glasgow 1770 Peated No.1 (46%, OB, 2019)
Glasgow 1770 Peated No.1 Whisky Review: A lovely expression with plenty of new oak character, sweet and sublime smoke. A gentle smokiness and traces of youth in the spirit which is entirely expected, I hope as this expression is matured and ages this retains its smoke. 84/100
Aultmore 16 Years old 1997 Berrys’ (46%, Berry Bros & Rudd, Cask #3584, 2013)
Aultmore 16 Years old 1997 Berrys’ Whisky Review: Wow, melon filled goodness and unmistakable pear drops, super fruity. 87/100
Dufftown 8 Years Old 2009 Bicentenary Drammie (46%, Morrison and MacKay, HH, 410 Bottles, 2017)
Dufftown 8 Years Old 2009 Bicentenary Drammie Whisky Review: Pleasant and solid, cloyingly rich nose but a more reserved palate full of cereal notes a touch of zest and spice keep it interesting. 82/100
New Town Blends – The Surgeons Ball (46%, Edinburgh Whisky, 2016)
New Town Blends – The Surgeons Ball whisky review: A bit of a Jekyll & Hyde (apt?) dram, quite mobile on the palate but generally pleasing. Doesn’t hide its youth very well. 77/100
The English 11 Years Old (OB, 46%, 2020)
The English 11 Years Old Whisky Review: Similar to their ‘Original’ expression this is more of an every day drinker kind of whisky, starting to become a little drier and spicy for my palate but still a great benchmark of The English Whisky Company’s spirit. 83/100
Edradour 10 Years Old 2005 The Un-Chillfiltered Collection (46%, Signatory, Sherry Cask #74, 323 Bottles 2016)
Edradour 10 Years Old 2005 The Un-Chillfiltered Collection Sherry Cask #74 whisky review: Great nose with a heavy sherry influence but much more balanced on the palate, finishes with a lovely mouth-puckering dried fruits. 85/100
