Welcome back to another fine pairing of two blended whiskies, where I try them side-by-side, jot down some notes on the perceived differences, pick a favourite, and hopefully learn something new along the way. I was supposed to be tasting a blend from my Japanese whisky collection, but I needed to find a perfect companion […]
Welcome to another fine side-by-side whisky tasting, although I doubt that you will be randomly landing here from a search via the internet – it’s not like “English Whisky” or “Staoisha” are some of the most popular keywords. I feel like I could be writing about unique whisky for years, and yet, most of my […]
Welcome to my tiny corner of the internet where I spend my time sipping on Scotch whisky, comparing the differences, jotting down these notes, and hopefully learning something new in the process. I usually pick a somewhat unfamiliar [to me] single malt and pair it up with another whisky from my collection of favourites to […]
Welcome back to another fine tasting of two single malts, where I can compare them side-by-side to truly understand the differences, pick out a favourite, and hopefully learn something new along the way. Won’t you join me in this fun adventure, and if you dig this, maybe you will stick around for more? Today, I find […]
Welcome back to another fine tasting of two single malts, where I compare them side-by-side to really understand the difference, pick out a favourite, and hopefully learn something new along the way. For today’s tasting, I pull out the 8th dram from my Cask Explorer‘s 2022 Advent Calendar (Diamond Edition) and find a 30ml bottle […]
Welcome back to another instalment of my never-ending journey of pairing two single malts and trying to find out which one I like more and, most importantly, why. This is an ongoing refinement of my understanding of Scotch whiskies [and more], and hopefully, you’ll learn something along the way as well. In today’s tasting, I’m […]
Hello, friends and whisky enthusiasts. Old, new and everything in between! Perhaps you’ve been following me since the beginning, or maybe you’ve just stumbled onto this write-up from the mighty forces of the Internet. In any case, welcome to another side-by-side tasting where, together with you, I compare two whiskies, pick apart their notes, and […]
Welcome back to another side-by-side tasting in which I explore two single malts, or, in this case, a blend and a single malt, to see how they stand up against each other. The first dram is courtesy of Cask Explorers‘ Advent Calendar from 2022, Emerald Edition, and it’s a 30ml bottle behind door number 6 […]
Welcome back to another fantastic pairing of two single malts! Up for tasting today is the dram behind door number 5 of the Cask Explorer‘s Advent Calendar, Diamond Edition, and it’s a very welcome surprise from Fox Fitzgerald under the Peat’s Beast label, which is a 30-year-old secret Scotch whisky. It’s becoming difficult for me […]
Up for today’s tasting is a pair of single malts from Bruichladdich. I’m pretty excited about this one, folks, mainly because I think that my personal comparison pick should create a perfect companion. We’ll see how that goes. The first dram is courtesy of the Cask Explorer‘s Advent Calendar (Diamond Edition). It’s a 26-year-old single […]
