I just thought i’d quickly share the funniest spam comment I think i’ve ever seen with you all. Oddly enough this user appears to be having problems getting pregnant on Johnnie Walker Black Label – quelle suprise.
Single malt spam
If you or anyone you know has this problem too please contact a medical professional – or alternatively try blue label I hear its more effective.
I’m generally a huge fan of Lagavulin and I am sorry to say that the Lagavulin Distiller’s 
edition 1994/ 2010 is a little bit of a let down from this distillery. Which is a really great shame. That is by no means to say it is a bad whisky – in fact the Lagavulin distillers edition is very drinkable and tastes lovely. I’m more disappointed with the lack of complexity this single malt whisky has to offer as the flavours on offer in the distillers edition are not particularly exceptional. Maybe I’m being unfair as I did enjoy the whisky I think I just had higher expectations so I’ll just dive into the review and let you decide. Continue reading
The Balvenie 14 year old – Golden Cask
Balvenie are one of the few distilleries to still run the whole whisky making process from one location. They even grow their own barley and still employ coopers to make the whisky 
barrels. Whilst I may sound like parrot for quoting their own publicity I do feel that in a world of Diageo’s and Pernod Ricard’s it’s nice to have a whisky that is still completely made locally. Owned by the Grant family Balvenie, who own Glennfiddich as far as I’m aware, Balvenie usually make flavourful and complex whiskies. The Balvenie I’m reviewing today is the Balvenie 14 year old Golden cask. It weighs in at an impressive 47.5% vol and is double matured in oak and Caribbean rum. So onto the Balvenie 14 year old review; Continue reading
Stags Breath whisky liqueur
Call me a philistine but I love honeyed whisky and the stags breath liqueur from Badenoch 
is probably one of the best around. Deliciously sweet the whisky still has a strong note to play in the overall flavour as the honey is just short of overpowering. I’ve only given a brief review of this one as not a lot more is necessary for Stags Breath liqueur. Continue reading
Johnny Walker Black label is currently my favourite blend I have 2 bottles at home and they aren’t hanging around particularly well. That is because Johnny Walker black label is just so light, yet rich and smooth with a great finish and beautiful taste.
I actually love it – though I’m terrified Diageo is going to change it if they outsource production from Scotland – as has been implied by the company. Continue reading
I really do think that Glenfiddich gets better with age and the Glenfiddich 15 Year Old 
Single Malt, another reasonably priced whisky from the classic Speyside distillery, is no exception. This single malt is made in three different types of barrels – sherry, bourbon and new oak. After aging, they are married together in a Solera vat and then spend more time in the Solera tuns. Continue reading
Glennfiddich 12 year old
The name Glennfiddich means the ‘Valley of the Deer’ and Glennfiddich is one of the most well-known single malt makers in the world. Whilst some of the toffee-nosed inner circles of to the whiskey buffs do not hold the brand in high repute I think this is generally unfair. The Glennfiddich 12 year old finds a place in almost all the shops that sell single malt whisky and without a doubt, Glennfiddich 12 year old is sipped and relished by many whiskey tasters all around the globe. Continue reading
Bruichladdich – Laddie Classic – Edition_01
Matured in oak casks and weighing in at an impressive 46% the Bruichladdich Laddie Classic edition 1 is a really superb single malt from the Islay but with a little bit of a kick. I am a huge fan of this distillery for its usually light and honeyed expressions. Continue reading

Tonight’s review is another offering from Islay; the Bowmore 12 year old tasted and reviewed for your pleasure – and maybe also mine. Founded in 1779 Bowmore hav
e a good track record of producing peaty smoky malts thick with the lovely salty oiliness that this region offers. Continue reading
Aberlour 10 year old single malt whisky review and tasting notes
Ashamed to say that this is my first go at this distillery so the Aberlour 10 year old is 
probably a good place to start.
Aberlour 10 year old – nose
Starting off the Aberlour 10 year old some nice peat smoke and light spice which I think might be ginger. Continue reading
