Couple of nice additions I bought after the recent CASC whisky club.

Got these today: Tullibardine 225 Sauternes Cask and Jura Rum Cask.

This was lovely too. But at 99£ a bottle was a bit too much for me. Look at that colour. It's a CGars bottling. But lovely sherry finish.

Trying this for the first time tonight, never really ventured into the Arran distillery, but this is delicious, the old ‘Christmas in a bottle’ but I am a fan of sherried whiskies, glendronach being my favourite of all time after being introduced by Wigan. Spicy on the finish too, but that might be the 55.8% talking!

Would recommend!

Thanks man. I’ll keep an eye out for that one

One of my favourite drams from last year. Just something a bit different about it. I've ordered a bottle as part of my Dad's birthday gift I was that impressed by it.

I'd recommend that you try the Glenallachie 11yo Grattamaco wine cask if you can find a bottle.

How’s this one?

I’ve only had one whiskey finished in a red wine cask, a Japanese one few years back, which was a bit medicinal for my taste.

[QUOTE=potpest;n750864]Not had the sherry but I picked up another bottle of the Amarone Cask recently, couldn't leave the first one alone.

Interesting, will have to look out for this one.

I had a Chateau Neuf Du Pape cask edradour years ago that I liked. I've had a bottle of this but can't remember exactly how it tasted, finished it a while ago. Don't remember it being medicinal, some nice fruit in it as far as I recall.

have to fight for these in auctions too by the look of things!!

Best replacement for the now ludicrously priced A'bunadh I'd say.

This is a lovely rich whisky. No smoke/peat. Needs a touch of water. But smooth and strong. Recommended by mcdee and now me too.

Warms the cockles.

Never had the Inchmurrin 12 before but it's a really lovely dram - cheers!
