Whisky of the Week review and tasting notes for Single Malt Whisky. A collection of all the interesting releases I have tried. Not only Scotch but from around the world.
A perk of travelling is picking up interesting releases in Duty Free. On my recent travels, I managed to pick up not only the Jack Daniel’s single malt Tennessee whiskey, but also the Ardbeg Smoketrails Napa Valley Edition single malt Scotch whisky.
One of the great perks of travelling internationally is browsing through duty-free shelves. In airports like London Gatwick, whisky fans are often rewarded with unique finds. On a recent trip, I spotted the Jack Daniel’s single malt Tennessee whiskey—a release that immediately caught my attention.

Looking at the blog, I realised last week that I have been trying a mixture of blended malts, such as Black Bottle, as well as Islay and Highland drams. This is not about to change, as a friend invited me for drinks and we tried the Glen Deveron 20 year old Highland single malt Scotch whisky. The release is part of the Royal Burgh of Banff Collection Charter of Robert II, King of Scotland.

While visiting Scotland last year, I was fortunate to taste the Bladnoch 15 year old single malt Scotch whisky while staying with my sister and brother in law. The older bottling has the green label and the sheep on the front. Bladnoch is a new distillery to add to my tasting list, and it was fun sitting in the Scottish sun with my family and trying it.
I am looking back at a dram I tasted last year during my visit to the Loch Lomond Distillery: The Loch Lomond Inchmurrin 12 year old single malt whisky. During August last year, I had the opportunity to go on a Loch Lomond distillery tour at their facility in Alexandria, located in the Scottish Highlands.
