The wood has been very active on this cask, not only because of the very dark colour. The strong tannins are kept just in check by the fruity sherry aromas. A sherry monster for those who like it strong. – Rating: 85/100

Glenfarclas 105 20 yo

May 19, 2013

Very rich sherry flavours carress nose and palate and give you a feeling of laid-back luxury, only the finish is not quite on par. – Rating: 88/100

Northern Islay 20 yo 1990/2011 L’Esprit

May 14, 2013

Wonderful aromas on the nose are paired with a robust palate. The wood flavours are well integrated with the sherry fruit. – Rating: 87/100

Glen Scotia 20 yo 1991/2012 Wilson & Morgan

April 27, 2013

There is an unusual amount of spices in this sherried malt, the fruit is almost in the background. It is quite dry but still pleasant on the palate. – Rating: 85/100

Glen Keith 20 yo 1991/2012 Nectar Of The Daily Drams

The fruity nose does not really indicate the strong spices that will hit your palate. You have been warned. – Rating: 84/100

Midleton 20 yo 1991 For The Whisky Exchange

This is what Irish whiskey is all about, a true benchmark for the ‘pure potstill’ style. – Rating: 92/100

Longmorn 20 yo 1992/2012 Adelphi

Be prepared for a strong spice punch when tasting this whisky. Fortunately the other flavours are bold enough not to get lost. – Rating: 86/100

Littlemill 1992/2012 Berry Bros.

November 25, 2012

The floral character and the light gin reminiscence are a bit unusual, but it is all well-balanced and very enjoyable. – Rating: 85/100

Hammerhead

The nose is nice but the palate does not have much to offer, a light and unoffensive dram. – Rating: 76/100

Littlemill 20 yo 1991/2012 Whisky Doris

July 12, 2012

The nose starts timid but develops well with water. Don’t be fooled by the light color, there is quite some flavour in this dram. – Rating: 84/100

Rosebank 20 yo 1981 Rare Malts

June 18, 2012

A very complex yet light-bodied malt that has fruity and spicy flavours in very good balance. – Rating: 88/100

Mortlach 1990/2011 Signatory

April 15, 2012

Quite a nice dram with regard to the flavours, but the wood is beginning to take over. – Rating: 83/100

Port Dundas 1991/2011 Whisky & Rhum

March 26, 2012

A medium aged single grain with some rather nice flavours, but the mouthfeel is a bit thin and the finish is quite short. – Rating: 76/100

Wemyss Whispering Smoke 1981/2011

March 15, 2012

On the palate the smoke is a bit louder than a whisper, but this really is a very enjoyable island style malt. – Rating: 87/100

Craigellachie 1983/2011 Scott’s Selection

February 24, 2012

A nice whisky for those who like subtle drams. The character is a bit middle-of-the-road but quite pleasant nontheless. – Rating: 84/100

Bunnahabhain 1990/2011 Master of Malt

February 13, 2012

A very fine and thick dram with a nose that captures the meaty quality some rich sherries can have. Some gentle spices round off this malt. – Rating: 87/100

Glenkinchie 20 yo 2010 Release

February 9, 2012
Thumbnail image for Glenkinchie 20 yo 2010 Release

The nose needs some time to open up, but on the palate there is just too little flavour to back the rather strong spices. – Rating: 76/100

Auchroisk 20 yo 2010 Release

January 26, 2012
Thumbnail image for Auchroisk 20 yo 2010 Release

A very fine fruity dram. Everything is well balanced and rounded, nothing stands out, perhaps it’s even a bit too round. – Rating: 86/100

Aberlour 1990/2010 The Whisky Cask

October 4, 2011

Stripped from its trademark sherry influence, this Aberlour is a great opportunity to taste the plain distillery style. – Rating: 86/100

Cragganmore 20 yo 1992 Master Of Malt

September 23, 2011

The flavours of this malt are rather generic for a refill bourbon cask, but they are well balanced and make it a very pleasurable dram. – Rating: 84/100
