I've long heard complaints about the GlenDronach Cask Strength series taking a step back. That's probably partly because of the "Good Old Days Syndrome", but maybe there's some truth to it as well.
The closed distillery Rosebank has quite some fans out there. This is one of the younger ones available, distilled in 1991 and bottled by Blackadder in 2007.
It's here, the new Benromach Cask Strength Vintage 2008! I compare it to the whisky it replaces, the (in my mind at least) modern classic that is the Benromach 100 Proof.
How do we know for sure that cask strength whiskies are actually bottled at cask strength? The term cask strength should be pretty self explanatory, but the same can be said for single cask, and obviously we were wrong about that one.
