Bain’s Shiraz Cask 10 yo Single Grain Whisky
We went away on holiday, and I took some whisky with us. I have been loving the Bain’s 15 year old and was keen to try the Bain’s Shiraz Cask finish 10 year old single grain 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

Belgian Owl Evolution Whisky
A couple of months ago, I was invited to try some Belgian whisky that will hopefully become available in South Africa over the next year or 2. I have tasted the Belgian Owl Identité whisky before.

The Glenrothes Robur Reserve Whisky
I was having lunch at Bottega Cafe in a suburb called Parkhurst in Johannesburg. I asked Savi (the owner) to recommend a whisky to pair with my lunch, and he suggested the Glenrothes. It was my first encounter with The Glenrothes Robur Reserve single malt Scotch whisky.
