  • Grant’s Cask Editions Sherry Cask Finish

    Grant’s Cask Editions Sherry Cask Finish Whisky Review: Ok, again the cask finish is much improved over The Family Reserve expression but I preferred the Ale cask to this sherry cask expression. 82/100 Continue reading

  • Grant’s Cask Editions Ale Cask Finish

    Grant’s Cask Editions Ale Cask Finish Whisky Review: Smoother and a lot nicer than the Family Reserve blend, the extra time in Ale casks has added some malts, hops and filtered out any spice and spirity elements, great! 83/100 Continue reading

  • Grant’s The Family Reserve

    Grant’s The Family Reserve Whisky Review: Interesting, a little bitter overall, quite simple on the nose but thankfully more complexity in the palate. 78/100 Continue reading

  • Glasgow 1770 Triple Distilled No.1

    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 Continue reading

    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 Continue reading

  • FEW Bourbon Whiskey Batch 1

    FEW Bourbon Whiskey Batch#1 Whisky Review: Woody, suggesting perhaps it is a little older than their standard fare, but still quite spirity and feisty on the palate also. 76/100 Continue reading

  • Teeling Brabazon Series 1

    Teeling Brabazon Bottling Series 1 whisky review: Great balanced sherry dram, not overtly sherried – I’m not sure I’d call this a monster?  Continue reading

  • Teeling Small Batch

    Teeling Small Batch Whisky Review: Creamy and well balanced a very nice blend that hasn’t been over-sweetened by Rum cask finishing. 83/100 Continue reading

  • Teeling Single Grain

    Teeling Single Grain whisky review: Initially a little spirity on the nose but grat palate and flavour, with time/breathing mellows into a rich and sweet lemon curd, some tannin and spice but I didn’t place the wine cask – I… Continue reading
