Thanks to Covid, the old hopper is starting to empty a bit. This review is of a bottle from last Christmas’ staff exchange, finally seeing the light of day. No […]
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 […]
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 […]
You knew it was coming, because we told you it was coming and because there’s only so many things you can do with reviewing whisky: BattleScotch! Dewar’s Double Aged Edition! […]
The third and last bottle out of the pack, Dewar’s 18y. Again it appears to be the same mashbill, just aged longer, so I won’t belabour the review with a […]
UPDATE!! 2020-09-17 ** We got a reader complaint that this is not a Suntory but a product of San Foods. Which explains why I couldn’t find any links for […]
Flat out forgot we’re doing all Dewar’s this month. Was scrolling through the hopper trying to figure out what to post and hummed and hawed then made dinner and came […]
So, not entirely sure this is actually a Round 2! or not. Looking at the other Dewar’s 12y review, that bottle says stuff like Ancestor’s Blend and True Scotch. This one […]
It’s been a while since we had a whole set of something and gave a whole month to a whisky but thanks to last year’s gift packs, here we are […]
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 […]
Royal Challenge, and bud it’s a challenge. A challenge to sniff, a challenge to drink and a challenge to understand how it even happened in the first place. Well, culturally, […]
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 […]
The sixth tiny bottle from the medium box of big flavours. Pay me to write, you jags! Here we have a hobo’s tear worth of Ardmore 10y, of which is […]
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 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 […]
The third tiny bottle of Christ’s bl- I mean – Christmas Advent Holiday Year Ender Boutique-y Whisky things is the Bunnahabhain 10y Batch 14. I dunno what happened to batches […]
Here at iScotch we’d like to wish you all a very happy holidays, merry Christmas, festive Kwanzaa, chappy Chanukah, feisty Festivus or an unrelenting Yule. Oh yeah and a happy […]
Happy holidays! One of 12-15 traditional drinking seasons. For some reason the cold makes us more agreeable to sticky, rich and cloying sweets, treats and meats. Might be an evolutionary […]
Sometimes I forget things. Things like, where did this whisky come from, and, who are M and St in the tasting notes. According to the website, Caldera Hurricane 5 Canadian […]
Video BattleScotch! nose Simon – Barnburner Steve – Barnburner Chris – Barnburner neat Simon – Barnburner Steve – Barnburner Chris – Bearface 7y finish Simon – Barnburner […]
Video Review! Bearface is a somehow new 7y Canadian whiskey. I’m being facetious – you can do that by buying other people’s at least 7y whisky. It looks like […]
Video Review! Barnburner Ontario Whisky from Maverick Distillery. This was a sleeper – probably one of the best tasting budget Canadian whiskies I’ve had, and I’m super judgey of Canadian […]
We have done so many Tomatin – this is number seven – at this point there’s not a lot to say. Tomatin Cù Bòcan – near as I can tell […]
