Tap 8 Sherry Finished 8y Rye with Dan
Tap 8 Sherry Finished 8y Rye. Possibly the best rye ever, and that’s me saying that. Tap’s web presence is broken at the moment – the stylesheet’s not loading so […]
Revel Stoke Roasted Pineapple with Dan & Laura
Another offering from Winnipeg – Revel Stoke Roasted Pineapple flavoured whisky. I think everyone knows how this is going to go so let’s not drag it out. We’ve had and […]
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 […]
Gooderham & Worts Four Grain Canadian Whisky with Davey, Matt & Steve
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 […]
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 […]
Steel & Oak Dark Lager with Dan
Aw yeah, another hand-smuggled interprovincial beer delivery from Devin in BC! Always appreciated, the beer gift is. We’ve had a Steel & Oak before, their smoked Hefeweizen, which was […]
Old Tomorrow Brewing Monty’s Golden Ryed Ale
Just a quickie review today – Beer! Old Tomorrow is a Toronto brewery that’s pretty new. They’re in a few southern and eastern Ontario pubs and the LCBO, so they’re […]
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, […]
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 […]
Dillon’s Rose Gin Batch 11 with Dan & Alex
Dillon’s Rose Gin, a flavoured gin liquor. We’re well out of our wheelhouse with this one. Rose gins aren’t too uncommon, and rose hips show up as one of the […]
Sleeman Beechwood Smoked Lager with Steve
Okay, so sometimes we do a review, and due to a combination of the stuff being terrible, and the photo being boring, and it sort of being a little off-topic, […]
Chinook Canadian Whisky with Dan
First off, apologies for the delay in the English Whisky Co reviews, but moving has prevented doing a tasting. In the meantime… Chinook Canadian Whisky: just don’t. It’s been a […]
Fucking Fireball Goddamned Cinnamon Garbage Alleged Whisky with No One
I can’t believe I’m doing this. I haven’t tasted it yet. It’s sitting in a Glencairn glass between me and my keyboard. I am currently writing around it, through the […]
Gibson’s Finest Rare 12y with Davey
Okay… This is a head-scratcher. This might technically be a Round 2, but it’s hard to say. We’ve had Gibson’s Finest 12y before, but it didn’t have the word “Rare” on it, […]
Trafalgar Mighty Oak Imperial Oaked Brown Ale
It’s been a while since we’ve had a new cask aged beer, especially one not from Innis & Gunn. It’s also been a while since I did a solo review, […]
Canadian Club Reserve 9y with Davey & Alex
Heyheyhey fellow whiskynauts. I’m overnighting in beautiful Edmonton International Airport (YEG) and so a well written, hilarious, provocative or fact-checked post is just not in the works this week. So, […]
Alberta Premium Dark Horse with Davey & Alex
This is our third tango with a product of Beam Suntory’s Alberta Distillers. We’ve had their Premium, which isn’t, and we’ve had their Springs, which made a fantastic rye & […]
Strait Gin 51 with Davey
Hey, there, Christmas gin. And hey there, loyal reader! Last week was three years of iScotch (and I forgot), thanks for sticking around! Strait Gin 51 is from The Myriad […]
Round 2: Muskoka Winter Beard Double Chocolate Cranberry Stout with Davey
Long-time loyal readers or new binge-reading transients will recognize the Muskoka Winter Beard Double Chocolate Cranberry Stout as one of my seasonal favourites. This holiday pause was a little disappointing […]
Century Reserve Lot 15-25 Custom Blend Rye with Dan & Goran
Century Reserve Lot 15-25 Custom Blend Rye Whisky. That’s a lot of words. AGAIN. And I’m always suspicious of whiskies with numbers in the name. I checked the website, the […]
Great Lakes Brewery Beard of Zeus Barrel-Aged Barley Wine with Ryan
Great Lakes Brewery Beard of Zeus Barrel-Aged Barley Wine. It’s a name whose length is only bested by how long I’ve been meaning to post this review – there just […]
iScotch Bourbon Slurry with Dan, Goran & Ryan
And now for something different, again. Yeah, it’s different in almost exactly the same way as last time, but slightly different from that. This time, we’ve created a concoction of… […]
iScotch Scotch Slurry with Dan, Ryan & Julia
And now for something different. Not completely different, because 1) it’s still whisky and 2) I’m not quoting Monty Python. This is… relatively different while remaining on-topic for a website […]
