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.
Galloway Single Grain Whisky
About two years ago, I found this bottle of Galloway single grain Scotch whisky somewhere in a small bottle shop and bought it. It was relatively affordable, and it was a single grain. Not that this means much, but the information on the bottle about it being made on the banks of Loch Lomond looked interesting.
Whisky of the Year 2018
During the year, I am fortunate to taste many new whiskies. Some are not bad, and some I never want to taste again. Just search for “Ordinary” on this blog, and you will find quite a few examples of these. However, now and again, I taste something that blows my mind.
Floki Icelandic Young Malt
John went climbing in Iceland two years ago. Not a country that was on my bucket list, until we started researching it for his climb. And not a country that you expect whisky from. But he came back with unforgettable memories and a bottle of Floki Icelandic Young malt.
Glenmorangie The Lasanta Whisky
This is one of the bottles that started my whisky collection before I even realized I was collecting whisky. I tasted the Glenmorangie Lasanta single malt Scotch whisky at my favourite restaurant and loved it. John brought a bottle home soon after to remind us of a great evening.
Forty Creek Barrel Select Whisky
The bottle is nearly done, and I quickly need to capture the tasting notes for this Forty Creek Barrel Select Canadian whisky. I bought it in Canada during my July trip, and there is barely enough left for a tasting.
