Tried the Craigellachie 11 Year Old, bottled by Decadent Drinks—rich, sulphury, and full of rugged charm. A bold Speysider with serious personality.

Tried Don Julio’s new Ceniza Añejo Tequila—smoky, sweet, and layered with gentle complexity. A curious blend of smoothness and roasted character.

I tried Kilchoman’s 20-year-old Cask No. 1, a unique release from their founding days. Here’s how it holds up after two decades of aging.

I tried three single malts – Ben Nevis, Caol Ila, and Inchfad – each surprising in its own way. Here’s how they compare and whether I’d buy them again.

Tasting Ardbeg’s 15 Year Old revealed a surprising mix of dry herbs, lime zest and burnt fudge with peat—a layered Islay whisky with plenty to explore.

Tasted the Drink-X Benrinnes 12 – a Speyside single malt with clean fruit, soft malt character, and gentle spice. Modest, but honestly enjoyable.

A refined single cask whisky from South Korea’s Kimchangsoo. Subtle orchard fruits, gentle spice, and a clean finish make this worth seeking out.

Tried the Redbreast Moscatel Edition from the Iberian Series—richly layered with fruit, spice, and oak. A bold yet balanced single pot still whiskey.

Tasted Dominus Estate’s wine from their new Yountville vineyard – bold structure, classic Napa character, and serious age-worthy complexity.

My honest review of the Inchmurrin 12 Year Old bottled by Thompson Bros: fruity, floral, and refreshingly light with a great balance of character.
