The Botanist Gin with The Dan, The Ryan & The Goran
Changing a couple things up for this review. Yes, it’s a gin, and I don’t like gin either. But it’s okay, it’s made by Bruichladdich, the Islay scotchmakers. And, we’ve […]
Bruichladdich Port Charlotte Peat Project with The Dan
Bruichladdich is a big brand, consisting of many sub-divisions of brands and sub-brands. The Peat Project is the non-age specific vintage blend of a single malt of the Port Charlotte […]
Edradour Straight from the Cask 10y Chateauneuf du Pape Cask Finish with The Dan

Knob Creek 9y Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey with The Dan
My buddy and previous guest reviewer Jono brought this back from one of his trips to the States. Dan and I tucked into it and here’s what we thought. smell […]
Bushmills 16y with The Dan

Proof with The Dan
So, I could (and will) go into detail about the way this Canadian Whisky tastes, but you should know it’s just terrible. It blends with Canada Dry ginger ale very […]
Bushmills Black Bush with The Dan
Wrapping up this foray into Whiskies Irish is a bottle The Dan had set aside for review. This is an Irish Whiskey blend, mixing malt and grain whiskeys, but with […]
Writer’s Tears with The Dan
This is the second of the Irish Whiskies we bought for St Paddy’s day, delayed by scheduling conflicts with The Dan. But this weekend we managed to get together and […]
Jura Superstition with Katherine & Dan
Another bottle to replace. This Jura was one of the first bottles I bought myself – I really liked the story they told on the box, for the most part. […]
Balvenie Founder’s Reserve 10y with The Dan
The other night I got a call from The Dan that our friend Alex had purloined a bottle of single malt scotch from his dad’s closet. It proved to be […]
The Glenrothes Select Reserve with The Dan
I had purchased The Glenrothes before for a friend on reputation alone. It’s been on my to drink list for a while now and I’m really pleased I finally got […]
Aberlour 10y with Katherine & The Dan
First review so I decided to bring some friends in on the fun. Katherine has a somewhat longer relationship with scotch than I do (or with me, come to think […]
