Dalmore Cigar Malt
An occasional visit from Gilbert to ask us for our trust. He’s finding it difficult not to like a bottle that’s almost universally ignored, or even disliked. He digs beyond the tacky to work out why.
Fettercairn 16yo
Considering the role of malt whisky today versus what it was in the very recent past, Fletcher goes looking for something akin to Batman; that which is capable of being more than just one thing.
Invergordon 25yo
How might we view this mature yet affordable whisky in the future? Wally decides it needs to be celebrated now - before it’s gone and relegated to a nostalgic recollection of what once was possible.
Mackinlay’s Shackleton 2023
Three preambles for one whisky review? Something is borked at Dramface HQ and Wally takes pleasure in realising it’s only partly his fault for a change. It still makes for a nice whisky discovery though.
Jura Distillery Cask
Jura official releases are responsible for kick-starting whisky interest in thousands, even if they can’t hold it. Broddy is just one. He chases an auction win to ignite some Jura nostalgia. What a find!
Tamnavulin Red Wine Cask
While the palate doesn’t match the pleasant note, it’s a solid and fruity malt.
