Clan Denny Islay Edition Whisky

Last week I bought a bottle of Clan Denny Islay whisky. In my ongoing search for affordable and delicious bends, I have tasted some rather “interesting” blends and I have tried some excellent blends.

I tasted the Compass Box No Name No. 1 and the Compass Box No Name No. 2 blended malt Scotch whiskies about 18 months ago and have yet to capture the tasting notes. Released in 2019, this is the second limited edition in the Compass Box No Name series. The third bottling in this series was released in 2021.

Today I look at the second of the Big Peat samples that I got from Remarkable Malts to celebrate the 10th-anniversary release of the smoky fisherman. But I decided to jump right to the end and try the Big Peat 26 year old Platinum Edition blended malt Scotch whisky.

I bought a bottle of Bennachie 10 year old vatted malt Scotch whisky on auction some time ago. I have never seen the name before, so it was an interesting bottle to get. William Smith started the Bennachie distillery in 1824 as the Jericho Distillery near the village of Insch.
