This one is nice, but not as nice as the founders choice. Think aberlour abunadh vs alba 20240419_194739.jpg

This is my new favourite whiskey I think. English too! 20240325_222854.jpg

The older one was noticeably heavier/ more creamy consistency. It had an intensity, the more I savoured the more it numbed my mouth, but without losing flavour if that makes sense. Strong stuff.

Supermarket had £19 off the Talisker 10 yo @£34 Couldn't resist getting it for a Saturday lunchtime side by side.

300ml left in this 1990s(?) Talisker 10 yo map label bottle. Cork disintegrates on opening! Still, taste is superb & a sieve gets the bits out.

Picked this up from the Whisky Shop in Oxford. Sampled the non sherry casked version in the shop and went for this off the back of that.

Had a few nips out of it so far and its bloody gorgeous.

Funny as when I started out my Whisky journey a number of years back I thought peated Whiskys were awful! Now they're my favorite!

Such depth of flavour in a peated whisky my favorite. Same as a heavy latakia tobacco

Managed to find these two rare gems on my recent visit to the Puffin Rooms in Edinburgh.

Got to love Springbank, such a beautiful dram & such a rarity. Kilkerran 12 is another delicious Campbeltown whisky
