Welcome back to another round of RECYCLED, where I quickly review the bottles leaving my shelves and decide whether to repurchase them. Perhaps this is of use to you as well. It’s also the end of the year (today is December 31st, 2024), so I take this opportunity to clean out the back room where […]
Welcome to Two Drams A Day! Here, I explore the unique character of whiskies—often Scotch single malts—by pairing two at a time and tasting them side-by-side. I share my real-time observations, from surprising highlights to occasional letdowns, and ultimately pick a favourite. Along the way, I aim to discover and share something new. If you’re […]

Something in me wants to hold on to those empty bottles, at least until I bid them farewell in this pseudo eulogy on here. And I haven’t even been doing side-by-side tastings in a long time! It’s been exactly three months since my last confession! Oh well. I’m sure I’ll get back into the groove […]
It’s time for another round of spring cleaning, where I cover my “bottlekills” in this edition of RYCYCLED.
