Woodford Reserve vs Bulleit Bourbon
Today I look at another side by side bourbon comparison; this week between one of my favourite bourbons against one of John’s favourite bourbons. I look at the Woodford Reserve vs Bulleit Bourbon.

Johnnie Walker Green Label Scotch Whisky
As I continue my journey through the remarkable Johnnie Walker colour spectrum, I am pausing today to explore the exceptional qualities of Johnnie Walker Green Label15 year old blended malt Scotch whisky.
Ardbeg Uigeadail vs Lagavulin 16 year old whisky
This week, we’re having another Islay peat battle: Ardbeg Uigeadail vs Lagavulin 16 year old whisky. Both these single malt Scotch drams achieved cult status with peat heads. The Ardbeg Uigeadail is one of John’s favourite drams. So, to ensure we remained unbiased, we blind-tasted them.
Bulleit Bourbon vs Bulleit Rye Whiskey
Another fun side-by-side comparison this week: the Bulleit Bourbon vs Rye whiskey. For me it is a learning opportunity to better understand the difference between a bourbon and a rye whisky. They look the same and in some instances smell similar, especially if the rye has only the minimum rye percentage.
Johnnie Walker Red Label vs Black Label Whisky
One of the search queries that bring quite a few people to my blog is a comparison between the Johnnie Walker Red Label vs Black Label whisky. Google brings them to my site because I have written about both, but let me do a proper comparison for people who want to have it all on one page.
Black & White Whisky
I love the older James Bond movies. After the passing of Sean Connery at the end of 2020, there was a Bond movie marathon on TV, and I noticed that James drinks Black & White blended Scotch whisky in Dr No. It also gets mentioned in Moonraker. I have a Scottie as well, so I had to at least try this well known and affordable blend.
