Review: Ardlair 2011 – The Ultimate

This Ardlair 2011 is an unpeated offering from the Ardmore Distillery. The Ultimate by van Wees bottled this particular release.

Port Charlotte 10 is an amazing Islay Whisky from the Bruichladdich Distillery. A complex dram begging to be explored.

The Arran 10 is an amazing “bang for your buck whisky”. Un-chillfiltered, natural colour, and bottled at 46% ABV. All for less than 35 euro.

This Whisky Wednesday I invite you all to explore the Glen Scotia 18 with me. A truly exceptional single malt from the Campbeltown region.

This GlenDronach Port Wood has been aged for three year in port pipes, giving a rich an full-bodied port influence to this delcious dram.

This Knob Creek 9 year old is a Straight Bourbon from Kentucky, which aims to let us explore a pre-prohibition style of bourbon.

This Christmas I found a very special treat under my tree. A sample from Spheric Spirits latest release, the 1988 Blended Malt.

It’s Christmas! And the last day of the SMWS Advent Calendar. Which gives us a 26-year-old Caperdonich named Enter the Fruit Lair.

It’s Christmas Eve and the SMWS Advent Calendar has a special surprise in store for us. Small Batch release #17: Fruit Utopia!

On day 23 of the SMWS Advent Calendar we get to enjoy a 23-year-old Braeval. The tasting panel clearly gave this dram the Thumbs-Up!
