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.
Ironworks Heart Iron Canadian Single Malt
Good price, good story, good whisky. Surprise! — it’s good.
Laphroaig Càirdeas 2022
A fine drop – as subtle and delicate as Laphroaig could possibly get
Spey Fumare Cask Strength
Tasty peated whisky with nicely rounded edges. Bad bottle design.
Finn Thomson Blair Athol 9yo
All mouth, all trousers. A super start for the Thomson stash.
Bunnahabhain 12yo
A delicious lightly-peated malt from the haven of heavily peated whiskies
Jameson Blended Irish Whiskey
A good way to peer into Irish whiskey that really won’t break the bank
Kilkerran 12yo
There is much to be acclaimed for something that can have reach and function across everything.
