Whisky of the Week review and tasting notes for whisky I rated Very Good. When the dram is enjoyable and memorable, and we don’t mind having another glass later in the week. This is bottles I might use for cocktails and the occasional afternoon sipper. Rating: Very Good
I recently picked up a bottle of Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Honey while out shopping. I’ve always had a soft spot for Jack Daniel’s flavoured releases (I enjoyed the Jack Apple a while back), but it’s been years since I last tried the Honey edition.

This is not about to change, as a friend invited me for drinks and we tried the Glen Deveron 20 year old Highland single malt Scotch whisky. The release is part of the Royal Burgh of Banff Collection Charter of Robert II, King of Scotland.

I recently came across Sheep Dip blended malt Scotch whisky online, and the label and name immediately caught my eye. Who wouldn’t want to try something called “Sheep Dip”? The name alone makes the whisky intriguing. The label is also very different from the standard whisky bottles.

Today I look at a smoky budget blend; the Famous Grouse Smoky Black blended Scotch whisky. I have tasted my way through some of the top-selling budget blends this year. The Bell’s whisky was not too bad and brought back lots of childhood memories.
Today I look at the Jack Daniels Tennessee Apple whiskey liqueur. While travelling in Canada a couple of years ago, seeing all the flavoured whiskey liqueurs readily available was interesting.
On my recent trip to Mauritius, I found an interesting bottle of Johnnie Walker whisky in the supermarket. I had not seen the Johnnie Walker Black Label Sherry Finish blended Scotch whisky before and bought a bottle to try.
