Whisky Reviews
Here you'll find honest opinions, thoughtful analysis and the occasional disagreement, because no two palates are quite the same. We review widely, score reluctantly and remain convinced that whisky is far more interesting than the numbers attached to it.
Agreement is optional; curiosity is encouraged.
Nc’Nean Huntress Duo
Ogilvie leads as he, Archie and Eallair team up on a duo of special releases from Nc’Nean. Supplied through Nick, each of them have a go at Edition 4 ‘ Lemon Meadow’ and 5 “Malted Teacake”.
Turntable Track 07 - Born to be Wild
Once in a while, Mason gets genuinely excited about a new whisky release. This is one of those moments - and it’s a blend. Although one with a young and very different take on things; Turntable’s Born to be Wild.
Nc’Nean Organic Single Malt
With so much to choose from, Mason is becoming more picky than ever. When it comes to replacing things he’s already tried, like this Nc’Nean Organic, he’s even pickier.
Thompson Brothers Mystery Malt Series 2
We take a break from our summer, erm, break, to bring an epic team Dramface pile-on for the Thompson Brothers’ Mystery Malt Series No.2. Let’s see if we all pay attention to the try-it-blind memo this time.
Watt Whisky Outturn
While Innes gives a run through on some of the late 2024 Watt Whisky releases, Wally chimes in after catching the latest release from Blacksmith & Jones: a docuseries all about Indy Bottlers.
Nc’Nean Rum Cask
Drummond, Ramsay and Hamish team up on a Nc’Nean British Rum Cask release, only to end up unintentionally positing the question; how much should a single cask of this age cost?
Nc’Nean Single Malts Duo
In a Dramface first, we visit Nc’Nean. Two malts showcasing what they’re up to in sustainability and organic processes. Ramsay wonders if he’s missed anything, with a little help from Drummond.
