About this deal

That first official Shizuoka sure was a session killer, but aren't we supposed to be resourceful at WF? I have an idea… We may sell, license, transfer, assign or in any other way dispose of the Service (including Members) to any third party without any notification to you, e.g. (but without limitation) in connection with any reorganization, restructuring, merger or sale, or other transfer of assets. I don't think I've ever tried this one. It's all a little confusing at times… Or am I not paying attention? Colour: gold. Nose: it's a little troubling that we would not be too far from the Guyanese. This is even rather gentler, but there are olives, tar, tyres and liquorice. Some pencil shavings, cedar, lead… Some seawater too, while it would rather be an easier Hampden, globally. On the nose. Right. Mouth: easy? Not quite, as it would roar this time, feeling stronger than just forty-six, with rather a lot of rotting fruits (bananas), plus the harshest oils and always these salty fish, sardines, anchovies, olives. Yeah I know olives do not quite live in the high seas. Anyway, great Hampden, especially when you've had enough toying with water, pipettes or coffee spoons. As they all say, 'we did it for you'. Finish: really long, really salty, really tarry, and with a few drops of lemon juice for good mesure. Comments: I find it quite amazing that both profiles would be this close. Great rum that needs neither extra-volts, nor extra-watts. Strathdearn is a hall in Tomatin. As for the strength, that's no typo, I suppose this one was stored just under a roof (in Death Valley Junction, California). As you know, strengths go up in a hot and dry environment. Colour: salmony amber, I would say. Nose: acetone, butterscotch and café latte – but of course. With water: a jeroboam of old balsamico vinegar, perhaps touches of truffle oil, old hessian, and probably even more acetone too. Very unusual nose. Gets rounder and gentler but needs time (cake and ripe apples). Mouth (neat): not sure I should, but it seems that Covid succumbs to these strengths, so… More café latte, varnish, probably eggplants, blueberry jelly, perhaps… With water: still very bizarre, and on the same notes, more or less. Some kind of liquid Scottish moussaka. Touches of metal polish (there!) and more eggplant yet. Finish: rather long, on similar notes. Some metallic sourness in the aftertaste, some lime juice too, and a sulphuriness. Comments: a lot of fun to be had with this one, but it really is a little, say lunatic. A mad scientist's whisky.

However, if you’ve found a particular article valuable, you also have the option to make a direct donation to the writer, here: buy me a dram - you’d make their day. Thank you. Craigellachie 12 yo (59.3%, OB for Quaich Bar 12th Anniversary, Singapore, PX hogshead, 264 bottles, 2019) Indeed, and we'll try to avoid any imported ones. Now we may fail, as there are quite a few new brands around, all adorned with proper kanji. Let's stay alert… (I'm sure we'll fail; Japan whisky is full of traps…) Nothing in the Terms shall exclude or limit our liability for fraudulent misrepresentation or for death or personal injury resulting from gross negligence or willful misconduct by us. Without prejudice to the section Liability below, the Service may be temporarily unavailable during maintenance, updates, etc. We shall make reasonable efforts to inform you of any unavailability due to maintenance or updates.GOLD MEDAL AWARD: Artful Dodger Whisky Collective (Burnside) 1989 30 Year Old; Artful Dodger Whisky Collective Anyway, you see where I’m headed; I was recently presented with a dram of Deanston Virgin Oak and enjoyed it immensely. I will, at this point, admit to not even guessing the correct continent, settling for an American single malt. Blind, I found a slight acetone and marker pen note that I find only when deliberately searching for it tonight. Whisky likes to play with us.

If any provision of these Terms is held invalid, the remainder of the Terms shall continue in full force and effect. I know I've literally floored you with that headline de la muerte. One day, they'll mention it in books and even have it on Topito: "The Ten Laziest Headline Ever". Let's see what we'd have today… These top people often had pretty tight and sometimes austere young to middle-aged malts. Looks like that's the case again here… Colour: white wine. Nose: sends shivers into your spine even before you have a single drop in your mouth, but that's not obligatorily a bad thing mind you. Bags of green lemons – tarter than lime – cider apples and starfruits covered with custard and a curious yet awesome herbal combo where I'm finding chives, mint and even a little garlic. Seriously, that's lovely. With water: yellow peaches and muesli, with bits of tangerines. Breakfast for champions – or bagpipers. Mouth (neat): textbook fresh and citrusy malt whisky from quiet refill wood. Some white pepper, more fresh herbs, and indeed, garlic. With water: a little rounder, with awesome touches of honeydew melon and just sweets. M&S assorted fruit sherbets, a shame that those are about to disappear from our shelves post-Brexit. Well I think we shall survive that challenge. Finish: medium, soft, fruity, easy. Comments: it's funny that we would remember the old official 8 yo here, but this is much better, I think. Do you remember that OB had been, very temporarily, part of the Classic Malts range?The event also presented the first ever Dr Jim Swan Award for Services to Scotch Whisky. The award was presented to Sheila Burtles, a sensory expert who was the first ever female scientist to advise the Scotch Whisky industry on flavour. Her most famous achievement is as co-inventor of the first ever Whisky Flavour Wheel, created in 1979. Aged 92, Ms Burtles accepted the award at a private presentation at home with her award presented by Charlie Maclean the renowned whisky expert and judge in the Scottish Whisky Awards. He commented. Kilchoman 13 yo 2007/2020 (55.5%, OB private cask for Max & Julia, cask #69, bourbon barrel, 215 bottles) Big thanks to Brian, Serge, and to whoever game me the mini of the 10yo Scottish Wildlife, I'm afraid I can't for the life of me remember who it was. As much as I’ve tried to get into bourbon from the limited selection we get on these shores, I’ve never found one I thought was better than just okay. Drinkable, but I’d rather have something else if it’s available. Wild Turkey 101, Rare Breed, Eagle Rare 10 and Maker’s Mark 46 all sit on my shelf, but have all been open for some time and are rarely reached for. Maybe if we had more choice in the UK at reasonable prices I could develop a keener interest, but we don’t, and I am happy with all the options scotch can offer me. Then again, if I don’t like the more subtle virgin oak matured scotches, then maybe bourbon will never be for me. If we decide not to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms, such decision shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
