Billed as the AEllachie event, this virtual Malt Nuts meetup was a clash of the llachies headed up with a challenge. Can you spot the differences in what you’re drinking? This wasn’t a direct challenge like when we did the Bourbon vs Rye with the SCWC, but more of a “Where’s Waldo” like when we […]

To kick off a quick Penderyn mini-run, we’re digging into the Penderyn Peated Single Malt. This is one I’ve been looking forward to trying for a while because of how much I enjoy Penderyn’s Celt release from the Red Dragon series. Next to the Penderyn Madeira, the Celt is my favorite in their core series… […]

Call it Balfiddich or Glenvenie, there has been a lot of this teaspooned blended malt on the market over the years and this last round of unnecessary tariffs made even more of it available. They go by a lot of different names, but at the end of the day they’re teaspoon malts that get put […]

Today we find ourselves sipping on The Kelvin Collaboration 3 (III / Release 12). I can’t believe these guys have pumped out 12 releases so far. I’ve covered most of them and not all have been smashing, but most have and that’s astonishing. Their ability to crank out delicious whisky is quite remarkable. Equally remarkable […]

Next up in the “Josh is getting caught up” series is the Blood Oath Pact 7. I always look forward to the Blood Oath releases, whether I like them or not, they’re always interesting and something a bit different than everything else on the market. They’re a fun look into a growing aspect of bourbon/America […]

If you’re looking for an American Whiskey version of Canadian Whisky, then look no further than the Wonderland Blend of Straight Whiskeys. To create their concoction, Wonderland sources 100% corn whiskey, 100% wheat whiskey, and 100% rye whiskey and then blends them together in their proprietary blend. This is the same process blended Canadian Whiskies […]

Aged 12 years, distilled by MGP and picked out by a wine sommelier, this Hooten Young Whiskey 12 Years sounds interesting on the surface. Unser the surface, it’s related to the High West Light Whiskey. Distilled at a higher proof than other American Whiskeys are allowed, and aged in used cooperage. This is a corn […]

Hailing from a farm that’s been in operation for over 165 years, 10 years before Nevada was even a state, comes the Frey Ranch Bourbon. A true farm-to-glass bourbon that’s grown, distilled, aged and bottled all on the same farm – they even do their own malting! Everything about the whiskey is Nevada, including the […]

Sometimes you have to try bourbon side by side with another whiskey that is totally different. Usually, a wheated bourbon and bourbon with rye as a secondary grain isn’t truly different enough. In most cases, not even a bourbon versus a 51% rye whiskey…
Here I am…..reviewing Ardbeg Dark Cove on a very warm July afternoon. I’ll admit I took a bit of a hiatus to enjoy some down time. As I mentioned in my previous post I was shedding some overhead out of my life and took a break to just rel…
