What a treat – is it the best Springbank? No, is it compelling? Yes. A unique expression of Springbank, not as filthy and dirty as usual – clean, clinical and somewhat refreshing. A must try. Thank you for Watching: Follow me on IG/Twitter/FB: @eat_smoke_drink
When Pigs Fly… Well, These feral flying pigs is like the ‘Beast of Blenheim’ had babies with your local Queen street synthetic weed user – It is brutal! Overwhelming but intriguing. This is not for the faint hearted. This is not for the ‘I am just starting out on cigars’ type
You think you are a hardcore whisky drinker? If you have never had a Mortlach then you have probably never experienced a beast. Known as the ‘Beat of Dufftown’ – Mortlachs are known to burn off hair from most people’s noses and balls! Without sherry influence, it is unforgiving yet
Sometimes we taste whisky and we just take for granted the differences, but what if you side by side two whiskies, for all intents and purposes same barrel type and same bottler but 5 years apart. You get a remarkable difference in flavours. Is older better – no not always! Unless
So you like Jazz, This has nothing to do with jazz but it has jazz written all over it. it is a old as shit whisky. Rumour has it it has old Macallan in it which is cool because new Macallan is just disappointing. Some say it is main Clynelish,
Called a gentleman’s Islay whisky, usually, because it is more integrated and refined than some face smashing, throat tickling Islay whisky. But this single barrel single malt expression is unusual for a caol ila. Oily as well, it will make the hair on your back and nether regions stand
This is a Laphroaig not like you know it, it isn’t boring like your standard Laphroaig. I ask people, what kind of whisky do you like? Some will say:’Oh I love Laphroaig 10′ because it is ‘cool’ to say that for no good reason at all, while most
This is like drinking a Mexican jalapeno salad with some fruit, Wow! Not for a beginner, If you seek ‘smooth’ whiskies and this ain’t for you until you grow some hair on your balls.
A slightly old bottling but a great one at that. Mortlachs are known as ‘the beast of dufftown’. No, They do not prowl the night for innocent victims unless you are an amateur in whisky – then you will be a victim of their strength and potency. Using worm tubs, they
Most people have never heard of this whisky, It is not ‘Ball Chin’ Ir is ‘Ball-eh-chin’ ….. I think:) I have had Ballechin before and most have been good, most have been cask strength. I think this is a tad under powered. But click to listen to my notes. Oh, Don’
Unique, different and certainly off the beaten path. Usually you will find this in many blends but in a single barrel, single malt expression – it shines. Then again, this is my first Glenlossie ever, so thanks for watching me pop my Glenlossie cherry! Imagine walking around an old fashioned carnival.
You no doubt have heard of Glendronach – but this single barrel gives a new light to that experience. If your average Glendronach is a standard cyclist, this one is Lance Armstrong jacking up on roids.
Longrow and Springbank rouses the discerning palates and lovers of old style scotch. Polarising in it’s nature to the core – Longrow/Springbank makes no apologies for that. Old world scotch in a new world full of snowflake whiskies, This is an orchestra of beautiful stench. Longrow: Father, It has
I get this question a lot, not so simple but Yes and No! Whisky should be stored opened or unopened in a cool dry place away from sunlight, a kitchen cupboard is a perfect spot. Once opened you should ensure the cap is firmly screwed back on and stored in
The Springbank 21 is hard to come by and it costs a shit load of money. How good is it? Paired it with an Opus X Lost city – Double Robusto. Is that worth all the hype?
Want something a little rarer? SMWS 38.24 will tick that box. Drinking this is liquid history. Closed and extinct distillery – question is, Are you ‘Baller’ enough? Make sure you pair something luxurious with this.
