Speyburn Bradan Orach Whisky
A while ago, I spotted the Speyburn Bradan Orach single malt Scotch whisky and added it to my collection. It was in the affordable category and retailed for around R 450.

Single Malt Whisky
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.
Wemyss Malts Dark Chocolate Orange Whisky
April and the time around Easter is an indulgent chocolate month. Chocolate bunnies, eggs, even chocolate chickens can be found in most of the shops. Echocolate everywhere. I keep on finding lost (hidden) chocolate eggs in strange places. I am not complaining.
Oban Distillers Edition Whisky
A short distance from the sea, right in the heart of the town of Oban, sits the Oban Distillery. Oban is part of the Diageo stable, and the Oban 14 yo is part of the Diageo Classic Malt Series. It is one of Diageo’s smaller distilleries and uses water from Loch Glenn a’Bhearraidh. But today I am tasting the Oban Distillers Edition single malt Scotch whisky.
Checkers Private Barrel Co No 41 Whisky
One of the hardest things to do is to build a whisky collection on a budget. With an increase in demand and a hunger for unique and aged whisky, prices have been going through the roof and distilleries are releasing NAS versions at crazy prices.
Muirhead Silver Seal Maturity Whisky
My never-ending quest to find affordable, drinkable whisky. Finding well priced blended whiskies is relatively easy. There are plenty of them around, and some of them are quite good. However, single malt whisky is a different story. There are not too many new single malts available at a reasonable price in South Africa.
Sullivans Cove Double Cask Whisky
Today I try a new world whisky, the Sullivans Cove Double Cask single malt whisky. New world whiskies are always a treat. I enjoy exploring all the different world whiskies, sometimes more than the Scottish ones.
