A 25-year-old Bruichladdich then, from an ex-bourbon cask (presumably refill), bottled by Cadenhead's, one of those no frills independent bottlers. It is no surprise that the result is somewhat of an old style whisky.
Speyside Distillery is one of those anonymous distilleries. To me at least. They tried to change that by hiring Michael Owen as spokes person, but that didn't pan out. Also, their name is a bit unlucky, as it can cause quite a bit confusion. Plus, are they really Speyside?
Everyone at the top of the leaderboard is sort of quietly chugging along, picking up a few points left and right. I'm kind of waiting for someone to explode and taking a more commanding lead.
The best whisky tasting in the world. Now that's quite the statement. But after taking it for the second time late last year, I'm convinced that the Cadenhead Warehouse Tasting fits that bill.
