  • The One Signature Blend

    The One Signature Blend whisky review: A great blend and definite improvement in flavour profile for me, the work on this from Dhavall and the Lakes Distillery really is starting to show here. 84/100 Continue reading

  • The Whiskymaker’s Reserve No.1

    The Whiskymaker’s Reserve No.1 whisky review: I found this a little hot and spirity at cask strength (as presented 60.6% ABV) but this expression takes water well and reveals a robust malty body. Some great flavours developing here but perhaps… Continue reading

  • Cotswolds 3 Years Old Batch 1

    Cotswolds 3 Years Old Batch #1 whisky review: A very fresh expression, spicy, woody and tannic, a lovely zingy fruit sweetness. Young and sharp and a little too woody but shows great promise for what is being produced at the… Continue reading

  • The One Port Edition Prototype Cask Strength

    The One Port Prototype Cask Strength whisky review: Definitely benefiting from delivery strength, this Port finish expression is dangerously drinkable at 60.2% ABV, With such and intensity of flavour you could almost be mistaken that this has spent some time… Continue reading

    London Single Malt Spirit Port 2 Years Old review: Diminishing, from nose to finish. The nose is there or thereabouts, even a lovely musty wood smell that suggest old Port maturing in the cellars. The palate still carries a little… Continue reading

  • Bimber 2 Years Old Sherry Cask

    London Single Malt Spirit Sherry 2 Years Old review: A delicious 2 year old PX matured sample suggest this first ‘Sherry Cask Matured’ expression that is going to be full of the classic nut, toffee and chocolate flavours that PX… Continue reading

  • Bimber 2 Years Old Signature

    London Single Malt Spirit Signature 2 Years Old review: This exuberant 2 year old mixture has certainly developed some flavour that hides its youth. The combination of dried fruit, nut and oak wood calls to mind vintage cars with leather… Continue reading

  • Bimber New Make Spirit

    Bimber New Make Spirit review: For a new make spirit this is remarkably non-lactic and has only a tinge of metallic influence on the palate. Remarkably drinkable at cask filling strength and reasonably robust and tasty too. A promising start! Continue reading

  • Steel Bonnets

    Steel Bonnets Blended English and Scotch malt whisky review: A robust blended malt, I’m guessing a healthy influence of sherry cask maturation involved in some of the components at least due to the influences on the palate of orange, herbal,… Continue reading
