Whisky Reviews
Here you'll find honest opinions, thoughtful analysis and the occasional disagreement, because no two palates are quite the same. We review widely, score reluctantly and remain convinced that whisky is far more interesting than the numbers attached to it.
Agreement is optional; curiosity is encouraged.
Meikle Tòir 5yo The Turbo
On his 3rd attempt, Felix manages to snag a Meikle Tòir - The Turbo; an annual peat bomb that has always intrigued him. However, with time to interrogate, it gives him the toughest of scoring quandaries.
Springbank 10yo Open Day 2025
Back for his tricky follow up piece, Felix snags himself a Springbank - a Malt Festival bottle no less. As he considers how easy this was to come by, he shares his thoughts on why. And neckpours! Wally chimes in too.
Holyrood Pitch
In his debut, Felix puts forward the case for Scotch whisky’s restricted innovation as well as an apparently overlooked bottle from Edinburgh’s Holyrood; their still available ‘Pitch’ release.
