Laphroaig are a very polarising distillery. They say you’ll either fall in love with their Scotches, or you’ll hate them with a passion. At a Whisky Club night I tried the 10 Year Cask Strength for the first time and I was blown away. I dig into the history of the distillery, their unusual pairing of wash and spirit stills, and finally I review the 10 Year Cask Strength.

With John Chidgey.

The Loch Lomond Signature Single Blend is about $10 more than their Reserve offering, so it misses out on being Ultra-Affordable. I dive into the Solera method of Whisky maturation that the Signature uses, and try to answer the question…is this worth the extra $10 over the Reserve…or not?

This is the final installment of the first ever Cheap Week series! With a strict budget of $50 or less for a 700mL Bottle in the Australian Market, I set out to prove whether it’s possible to find a good Scotch you can drink neat and enjoy…or whether you’re wasting your time. Today I tackle the Grant’s Triple Wood, which is a brand of William Grant & Sons. I look at their distillery, its history and the truly staggering scale of their Grain Whisky volume production…and I also rate this Scotch.

Welcome once again to another installment of Cheap Week! With a strict budget of $50 or less for a 700mL Bottle in the Australian Market, I set out to prove whether it’s possible to find a good Scotch you can drink neat and enjoy…or whether you’re wasting your time. This time I tackle the McAllister Reserve and look at how to identify Own-Brands with a simple Internet Search, and why I’m not a big fan of the practice of slotting and side-stepping it with own-brands. Oh, and I also decide if this is the best own-brand scotch I’ve tried…or if it isn’t.

Day Three of Cheap Week, where I have a strict budget of $50 or less for a 700mL Bottle in the Australian Market, I set out to prove whether it’s possible to find a good Scotch you can drink neat and enjoy…or whether you’re wasting your time. The Label 5 Classic Black Scotch is another own-brand of Woolworths/Dan Murphy’s…but is it better than the 1495?

Cheap Week continues and with a strict budget of $50 or less for a 700mL Bottle in the Australian Market, I set out to prove whether it’s possible to find a good Scotch you can drink neat and enjoy…or whether you’re wasting your time. The cheapest Scotch at Dan Murphy’s is the 1495 which turns out, is an own-brand. I dig into what that means, who Pinnacle Drinks are and realise that the 1495 has no real story behind it, no history and no…hmmm…quite possibly my harshest review to date.
