  • From: Sir Andrew
  • Description:

    As more and more of the distillerys offer cask strenghts  upwards of 125 proof, you need to add water to fully enjoy the flavors on your toungue and to allow you to enjoy your drink around an open flame.

  • Description:

    I went to Oban this year, and did the distillery tour. Great we tasted the Distillers Edition. A 10 year old right from the cask (10 years old). Great whisky. The tour was a bit too commercial but ok.

    I've got a few to choose. I would say that the Inverleven Premium Cask 14 year old is my favorite at the moment.

• Last remains of Inverleven Last remains of Inverleven

  • From: Whisky Willem
  • Description:

    This site was used to produce grain and single malt whisky. Inverleven was never botteled, as a distillery botteling, only the independent bottelers botteled it. There was another single malt produced here: Lomond, but from this single malt, just one cask was botteled ever as far as I know.

    It was a very sad site, to see how heritage is lost. It was the second one that day, because before this I visited the former site of Littlemill distillery in Bowling.

• Laphroaig 10 Laphroaig 10

  • From: TomLA
  • Description:

    Laphroaig 10 is definitely my every day scotch.  Someone else mentioned this before I noticed and I agree whole heartedly.  Love the peat of the Islays.  A bottle of this runs about 30 bucks at Trader Joe's in LA... so it's a land slide victory on the economic level.  Can't say any single malt gives you as much bang for your buck, but I'm open to suggestions!

    I'll also do the Quarter cask and Ardbeg 10 as well.  But, they are more of a hit to the old wallet.  Lagavulin

• The Gelnlivet - Nadurra The Gelnlivet - Nadurra

  • From: txbrewer
  • Description:

    From the box - 

    Colour - Bright gold. (A gentle haze may appear when water is added.)

    The nose - A fresh summer-live medley of floral and sweet spice aromas enhanced by gentle notes of toasted oak.

    The taste - Smooth and silky with the sweetness of soft fruits and honeyed flowers balanced by a dry, oak finish of considerable length with notes of ginger and hazelnuts.

    *****

    From me - 

    Colour - could not agree more.  It got even brighter once poured.

    Diluted - mine did not haze over at all.

    The nose - Floral it was but I did not get the spice. At cask strength it was more about that alcohol burn from all those vapors. (To be expected from something bottled at 57.6 abv.)

    Diluted - started to find the spice notes, maybe with more water I would have found the toasted oak too but I do not like to dilute that much.

    The taste - most excellent even at full strength.  I really wish a I had good wine fridge for bottles like this as I think just being at a slight chill would do it more justice than adding cold water.  Regardless, it is smooth and the honey sweetness is enjoyable.

    Diluted - killed that alochol pepper bite enough to make it smoother and allow the honey sweet to come out a bit more.  Nutty yes but not hazelnut (at least to me)

• What was your worst dram ever? What was your worst dram ever?

  • From: Whisky Willem
  • Description:

    Because I'm a lucky fellow and presenting a lot of Scotch during my presentation. I was in the opportunity to taste many different Scotch expressions. I can come up with only one bad dram, an Edradour  finished in a Tokay cask, but remember, that's very personal, you will probably like it!
