Having reviewed all of the Whiskies in the 2024 Global Whisky Advent Calendar from Liquor Loot, it’s time to highlight my favourite five Whiskies from the calendar, and to provide an assessment in summary…was it worth it?

With John Chidgey.

Only the second Glendalough Irish Whisky I’ve tried, today I review their Double Barrel offering. It’s cheaper than my other favourite Glendalough, the Pot Still, but this one is a Single Grain. How does it compare?

The Dewars family built the Aberfeldy Distillery and began producing Whisky in 1898 and it has been a component of Dewars blends ever since. When Bacardi-Martini bought Aberfeldy in 1998 they shifted part of the focus to producing Single Malts. Today I review their 12 Year Single Malt offering. Can I pick the Dewars lineage, and on it’s own…how does it stack up?

The Scottish branch of my wife’s family are from the small Island of Jura. It’s less populated than adjacent Islay. It has one town. It has one Distillery. But what an interesting Distillery it is. Between arguments with the Laird of Jura, being stripped apart and rebuilt, it’s back up and running and making some truly fascinating drams. I review the Jura 12 Year Single Malt, and it’s quite something.

The Archie Rose Distillery is located in the Eastern Suburbs of Sydney and in just over a decade has begun producing excellent Whiskies including the very interesting and competitively priced, Double Malt. Their publicly stated goal is to provide the Australian Public with an option for a sub-$85 local Whisky rather than an import. A choice it is…but does it beat the imported competition? Let’s see.

Once I discovered what a Toji was, that’s a Master of Sake by the way, I learned about the Eigashima or White Oak Distillery in Akashi. It’s primarily built for and produces Sake which is Japanese Rice Wine, however for two months of the year their Toji produces Whisky. With a Sake Master at the helm, just how good is it? Let’s find out.
