Belgian Owl Passion Whisky
A couple of weeks ago, I wrote about the Belgian Owl Evolution whisky I tasted as part of a tasting pack. Evolution was John’s favourite of all five samples. My favourite was the Belgian Owl Passion single malt whisky.
Rating: Excellent
Whisky of the Week review and tasting notes for whiskies that I rated as Excellent. Excellent means that after tasting the whisky, I want to pour a second and third glass. It is whisky that I want to keep on drinking and when the bottle is finished, I will buy another one. Rating: Excellent
Chivas Regal XV Blended Whisky
Today I look at something relatively new. Not a new brand, Chivas Regal has been one of the best selling whiskies globally, but a new release. Launched in 2018, Chivas Regal XV whisky is a 15 year old blended Scotch whisky that has been finished in casks that previously held Grande Champagne Cognac.
GlenDronach Parliament 21 year old Whisky
I found a whisky called after the collective noun for a group of rooks; a Parliament, the GlenDronach Parliament 21 year old single malt Scotch whisky. It can only have an unique story. Nestled in the valley of Forgue, deep in the East Highland hills, a Parliament of Rooks guards a warehouse.

The third in my series on the new Balblair age statement releases and this week I look at the Balblair 17 year old single malt Scotch whisky. The Balblair 12 year old whisky set the foundation on which the rest of the series stands.
Bunnahabhain Eirigh Na Greine Whisky
I tasted the Bunnahabhain Eirigh Na Greine Islay single malt Scotch whisky for the first time a couple of years ago at a function when Pierre Meintjies poured me a tot. It was delicious, and I asked John to buy me a bottle.
