Bowmore 15 Years – Laimrig Batch 4
I should’ve paid more attention to the Bowmore Laimrig. It’s really great!
Glen Garioch 15 Years Sherry Cask Matured (2019)
What’s up with these sulphured yet popular whiskies? It is beyond me how some of these withstand the scrutiny of a master blender.
Aberfeldy 15 Years Old Red Wine Finish (2019)
Another wine-influenced whisky that I like. What’s happening here?
Kilkerran 15 Years Old Fino Wood (Bresser & Timmer)
Instead of starting its life in a common bourbon cask, it ended it’s life in one. For the first 10 years, this Kilkerran was tucked away in a Fino cask, while it spent the final 5 years in a re-fill bourbon casks.
Singleton of Dufftown 15 Years Old (2019)
I don’t get The Singleton. It’s like Diageo was thinking: “We’re the biggest producer of Scotch whisky, yet there’s no way we’re ever going to beat Glenfiddich or Glenlivet in terms of sales. Let’s combine three distilleries into one brand and hope for the best — maybe that’ll get us the number one Scottish malt whisky spot.”
Glenlivet 2002 15 Years Old (Gordon & MacPhail)
Different and interesting, but also not for the faint-hearted, this Glenlivet from Gordon & MacPhail is a little too intense to my liking.
