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.
River Rock Whisky
A single malt that struggles to keep afloat on the swirling whisky current
A Brace of Cooley 1992 Single Malts
Two bottles that I do not regret opening and do indeed warrant ‘special’ status
Lagavulin 8yo
A joyous peated dram of surprising decadence. Incredible value at the Clubcard price.
Benromach Whisky Core Range
Something different. An old-school distillery whose whiskies are worth spending time on to explore
Tamdhu 18yo 125th Anniversary
Synopsis of the article - what’s the preamble about(?) (Up to approx. 100 characters)
Infrequent Flyers Knockdhu 8yo
A famous playwright once wrote ‘What’s in a name?’ Quality, for starters, as it turns out.
