De Salud Slijter Spotlight neemt deze maand een kijkje bij Van der Heijden uit Eindhoven.
Turntable x Starward
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. There’s nothing wrong with a good blend! It’s a bias we still see a lot in the world of whiskies. Blends are bad and single malts is where it’s at. But you couldn’t be further from the truth. I always say that the only question when
Berry Bros Williamson 2013
It’s been a while my friends! No worries though, I haven’t given up the hobby. But with both a new (whisky related) education, a baby on the way and a new house to move to… I’ve simply been a bit swamped. But when my good friend Robbert (Confessions of a Whisky Freak) reaches out to
Passie voor Whisky
Of we nou ons favoriete tijdschrift lezen, of een van de mooiste slijters van het land bezoeken. Het thema “passie” vinden we overal terug in de whisky wereld. De drank is een muze geweest voor menig artiest, de hobby van vele liefhebbers, en de fundering van vriendschappen voor het leven. Bij Wijn- en Whiskyspecialist van
Elijah Craig Small Batch
It’s time for a wee review of one of my favourite bourbons. In fact this Elijah Craig Small Batch is the bourbon that got me into the category. Falling head over heels with their Barrel Proof it wasn’t until yesterday that I realised I had never reviewed the OG, the 94 proof Small Batch. A

Thy Maltmod
Earlier this week I visited the Thy Distillery in Denmark to write an article for the next Whisky Passion. As we’ll be deep diving into the story behind the distillery in that article, and I already wrote quite a bit of information about Thy during the Thy Whisky Week here on Dram1, I’ll keep the
Laphroaig 25 (2015)
This distillery needs no introduction, nor does the dram itself. As soon as you pop the cork on this bottle, the story tells itself. The same can be said about the man who I got the sample of this magnificent Laphroaig 25 (2015) Cask Strength from. (Not the popping the cork bit ofcourse, but that
Chichibu 7even Gods Of Fortune “Fukurokuju”
When I look around the community, I hear the term “Whisky Nerd” often thrown around as a term of endearment. I like to consider myself a bit of a whisky nerd as well, not per se because of my knowledge (as there are many people around who know a whole lot more than me), but
Remus Gatsby Reserve
In today’s review I’ll be having a look at the Remus Gatsby Reserve. A bourbon with no less than a 15 year old age statement, that comes in an art-deco style bottle that very much reminds me of the roaring 20’s. As I’ve never been lucky enough to try a whisky from that era, I
