The Dalmore | Valour | NAS, 40% ABV
Today, I will be sharing my review on one of @BCLiquorStores newest additions to their selection of Single Malt Scotch Whisky! @TheDalmore‘s Valour is an intriguing tipple, which spent its maturation period in three cask types; American white oak, Oloroso casks formerly containing 30-year-old Matusalem sherry, and Tawny Port pipes. Appearance | stunning clarity, with inviting goldenContinue reading “The Dalmore | Valour | NAS, 40% ABV”
Ledaig | 10YO, 46.3% ABV
It’s #WhiskyReview time! ☺️ Ledaig 10, the dram which will always remind me of my Whisk(ey) Wifey, @ReeceSims. I first met Reece at Vancouver’s Hopscotch Festival, back in November of 2019, when she introduced me to Ledaig, @Bunnahabhain, and @DeanstonMalt‘s whiskies. I’m sure I made a statement with my bedazzled cane Michael (…, get it?), or, maybe we just clickedContinue reading “Ledaig | 10YO, 46.3% ABV”

When I think of @TheGlenturretWhisky, I am reminded of the fantastic experience touring the distillery and tasting whiskies in the dunnage warehouse with Managing Director, John Laurie!

It was amazing toContinue reading “The Glenturret | Peat Smoked | 10YO, 50% ABV”

Happy #Friyay friends, I have a new whisky review to share with you! As most of you know, over the past 12 months I’ve fallen for a particular Islay distillery, the beloved @Ardbeg!

Kilchoman | Sanaig | NAS, 46% ABV
As you may have gathered, I recently added my first (I know) @Kilchoman to my expanding whisky collection – just in time for #KilchomanDay!

The Balvenie | Double Wood | 12YO, 40% ABV
@TheBalvenie Double Wood 12, a sophisticated and thoroughly enjoyable stalwart Speyside dram! Finding myself with a great feeling of being home, with this Balvenie as a comforting companion. APPEARANCE: golden, light amber; resembling light mahogany. NOSE: wow, this dram has one of the most intricate noses. Oak, nip of spice, and an enticing sweetness of rich milkContinue reading “The Balvenie | Double Wood | 12YO, 40% ABV”
