Glenlivet Master Distiller’s Reserve On A Plane

JP Wiser’s Hopped Whisky (Dark Ale Style) with Dan
JP Wiser’s Hopped Whisky. A tiny sampler attached to the Double Still Rye. I just got called out for hating on Wiser’s in the last review, and this one’s not […]
JP Wiser’s Double Still Rye with Dan
JP Wiser’s Double Still Rye. Again with the Wiser’s. We are pretty consistent non-fans of Wiser’s and their stable of whiskies, which is unfortunately both huge and cheap, so they […]

How do you like that, it’s Kentucky Derby Day & we’re reviewing Old Forester, the Official Bourbon Of The Kentucky Derby! Had no idea of either, this is a complete […]

Gooderham & Worts Four Grain Canadian Whisky. Corn, barley, wheat & rye blended together and named for the distillery that is now the Distillery District in Toronto. The name appears […]
Dewar’s 12y Ancestor Blend with Dan, Davey, Matt & Steve
As this project has gone on, we’ve found a unique kind of satisfaction in checking off another expression of a brand we’ve enjoyed before. The completist’s high, the collector’s sense of progress. […]
Crown Royal Northern Harvest Rye with Matt & Dan
Yes, it’s *that* whisky! “Greatest whisky in the wold” some people have quoted, incorrectly. “Voted best!” others have also misspoken. Basically, what you’ve heard about this bottle of whisky […]
The Top 18 iScotch Posts That Weren’t
In the course of running a blog, you lose shit. If, like me, you’re a photographer first and foremost, you don’t lose photos, but you do lose slips of paper. […]
BattleScotch! Black Bottle v Black Grouse with Goran
Aw yeah, BattleScotch time! Haven’t done one of these in a while. For today’s combat d’esprits, we have the illustrious and 2-time winner Black Grouse taking on the newcomer, Gordon […]
Lombard Old Masters G Blend with Matt & Steve
Lombard’s Old Masters G Blended Scotch Whisky. This one is a little odd. Lombard’s website, and the postal code, tell us the company hails from the Isle of Man, which […]
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 […]
Potter’s Special Old Rye with Steve & Matt
Potter’s Special Old Rye Whisky. Special, old, rye. And in a tiny plastic bottle, because it’s very classy. Also classy, I’ll be continuing the practice of gifs with this post, […]
Round 2! Ardbeg 10y with Dan
Just a quick one this week, loyal readers! It’s been a slog of a week, verily, and while I will be enjoying a whisky in very short order, this isn’t […]

White Owl Whisky with Matt & Steve
White Owl Whisky. Clear like shine, but apparently legally allowed to be called whisky. What? Produced by Highwood Distillers, who also make Centennial, Century and Potters whiskies, White Owl is […]
Bowmore Legend with Steve, Goran, Dan & Matt
Post 301 y’all! Haven’t done back to back articles in a while. Since we’re starting on a new day, with a new theme, I figured we should do a proper single […]
The Big Three Hundo
300 posts on iscotch.ca. That’s pretty crazy. Granted, they’re not all bottles of single malt scotch – the brand got watered down early and often, that’s for sure. Over the […]
BattleScotch! Tomatin Spanish Sherry 12y v 15y v Oloroso 18y with Dan
BattleScotch! Tomatin Stillmen’s Choice Edition! Aw yeah aw yeah! It wouldn’t be a reasonably priced selection of delicious single malt scotches without us wringing one more post out of it. In the […]
Tomatin Oloroso 18y with Dan
Tomatin Oloroso 18y, the last of the Tomatin Stillmen’s Choice sampler. Next week, we close Tomatin month with the obligatory BattleScotch! At 18y, this is in the old end of […]
Tomatin 15y with Dan
Tomatin 15y! The second review of Tomatin month is their 15y expression. Where the other two are aged in sherry barrels, this bottle is aged in standard scotch whisky barrels […]
Tomatin Spanish Sherry 12y with Dan
Welcome to Tomatin Month at iScotch. What? you say. Is this some kind of sponsorship jam? Nope! Just found this sampler at the liquor store in the Calgary airport and […]
Talisker Storm with Steve, Julia, Goran, Matt, Ryan & Dan
The first of the birthday whisky, Talisker Storm! This is the first of the brand we’ve had in a while, but we’re long-time Talisker fans here. We’ve had the 10y, […]
