Advent The Last! Glenburgie, Strathmill & Benriach
In the name of getting shit over with, here’s the final three days of last year’s Those Whisky Brothers Non-Denominational Advent Or Other Holiday Countdown Calendar or whatever the hell […]
Advent Week 3! Heaven Hill, Islay #1, Linkwood, Macduff, Royal Brackla, Speyside #3 & Teaninich
Alright, who’s up for some quick burst filler content! I’ve been reviewing these goddamned whiskies for 10 months now ffs. In keeping with that, I think I reviewed like the […]
Advent Week 2! Benrinnes 11y, Cameronbridge 27y, Craigellachie 10y, Fettercairn 11y, Glen Elgin 12y, Glengoyne 9y & Glentauchers 10y
Still working my way through the Advent Calendar from That Boutique-y Whisky Company. It was pointed out that maybe publishing 24 different reviews for bottles you can’t buy was less […]
Aberlour 12y with Dan & Goran
Aberlour 12y. We’re gaining familiarity with this distiller, having tried the 10y and the 6y from the Advent calendar. We even pitted one against a McClelland’s way back in the […]
Advent 07! Auchroisk 12y Batch 7
Advent mini bottle number seven! It’s the unpronounceable Auchroisk, and if you make that noise in the grocery store now, you’ll be asked to leave. #CovidJokes Who are <Scottish barfing […]
Advent 05: Aberlour 6y Batch 8 with Dan
The fifth of advent, a 40 full of cheer. Corona got you trapped inside, why not drink a whole box of whisky. What could possibly go wrong? Aberlour is a […]
Advent 04: Dufftown 10y Batch 4 with Dan
Advent Number Four! Dufftown, home of Duff Breweries, offers a 10y whisky. I’ve never had a Dufftown before because I didn’t think it was real. It sounds like a fake […]
Balvenie 17y DoubleWood with Dan
The Balvenie 17y DoubleWood. This is one of those stop and appreciate whiskies that doesn’t come along very often. This whisky is “change the frame” good. You remember the run […]
Glenfiddich 19y Age of Discovery with Holly, Trevor, Steve & Dan
After doing a bunch of these reviews (like… a bunch), you can sort of perceive bigger trends. Like how for a bourbon, you need either a year or a cork, […]
BattleScotch! Tomintoul Glenlivet Edition with Dan & Goran
BattleScotch o’clock, Tomintoul time! You knew it was coming – we can’t do a whole month from one distiller without pitting them against each other in petty subjective combat. Cutting […]
Tomintoul Glenlivet 25y with Dan & Goran
We’ve come to the last new bottle out of the Tomintoul pack, the 25y. As near as I can tell this is the oldest expression of any whisk(e)y anything we’ve […]
Tomintoul Glenlivet 16y with Dan & Goran
The second entry in our month of Tomintoul, we have the 16y. There’s… not too much to say that we didn’t cover last time, it’s the same whisky, just from […]
Tomintoul Glenlivet 10y with Dan & Goran
Tomintoul Glenlivet 10y. So.. which is it? It appears to be a Tomintoul, as Tomintoul’s website calls all their whiskies Glenlivet Speyside. The Distillery is the Tomintoul-Glenlivet distillery, but it’s […]
Teaser Tuesday! Tomintoul Trio
A Tiny Trio of Tomintoul… Glenlivets? Stay tuned for 3 Reviews and a BattleScotch! coming your way!
Strathisla 12y Single Malt Scotch with Dan
Here’s one we’d been missing for a while, one that had escaped the LCBO before we had a chance to try it. Good old Cloud 9 in Alberta comes through […]
Glenfiddich 14y Rich Oak with Dan for World Whisky Day
Happy World Whisky Day, iScotch readers! Did you know, iScotch and World Whisky Day started in the same year? 2012 was an eventful, if largely sucktacular, year. Anyway, happy world […]
Glenfiddich 12y Special Reserve with Dad
It’s Dad’s birthday and he’s gone to the liquor cabinet and pulled out this Glenfiddich 12y Special Reserve. We’ve had a 12y Glenfiddich before, but it’s not clear if this is […]
Round 2! The Glenrothes Select Reserve with Dan & Ryan
Late night, late post! Just a quick Round 2 of one of our all time faves, the Glenrothes Select Reserve. 351st article, that’s kind of crazy. This introductory bottle from a […]
Glen Grant 5y Single Malt Scotch with Dan & Goran
Goran found this bottle on a recent trip to The Continent (not this one, a different one) – Glen Grant 5y Single Malt Scotch! Scotch whisky from Italy! Glen Grant […]
Glenlivet Master Distiller’s Reserve On A Plane
I found this Glenlivet expression, the Master Distiller’s Reserve, on an Air Canada flight last night. I thought I was just getting the 12y, a nice little cap off to […]
Glenfiddich 15y Solera with Dan
Another Glenfiddich! Not very often we get a new one of these core brands. Usually because they’re not cheap OR very exciting, really. The problem with a long standing, consistent […]
Cardhu 12y with Steve, Goran, Julia, Dan & Matt
Welcome to 2016 and THE FUTURE! It’s a leap year and I hear there may even be a new iPhone this year. Marvelous time, this future. What better way to kick […]
Round 2! The Glenlivet 12y with Steve
Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays everybody! Just posting a quick Round 2! review today because hey, it’s the holidays, guys. Here’s our previous review of The Glenlivet 12y. Next week […]
BattleScotch! Aberlour 10y v McClelland’s Speyside with Matt
Speyside BattleScotch! The budget conscious McClelland’s Speyside, a line we love, up against the allegedly more prestigious aged Aberlour. Matt’s idea was to pit two known quantity Speysides against each […]
