Episode 90: Label 5 Classic Black Blended Scotch Whisky
24 June, 2025
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?

Episode 19: Glendronach 12 Year
28 January, 2025
Today I embark on a four-scotch tasting flight starting with the entry level Single Malt from Glendronach, the 12 Year. I also cover some of the Distillery’s history and who owns it at the moment. The 12 is the only one of their line up without a fancy name so I try to figure out if there’s a reason for that, or not.

Episode 18: Chivas Regal Extra
26 January, 2025
Somewhere between 2014 and 2020 Chivas Regal started releasing the ‘Extra’ which is now no longer available in this bottling. Since then they’re released 13 Year age statement blends with multiple different finishes as well. I touch on Casks vs Barrels and Barrel Volume vs Surface area and how that impacts Whisky maturation and finally, I review the original Extra to see if it brings anything…extra…to their 12 Year Blended Scotch.

Episode 17: Loch Lomond 18 Year Single Malt
19 January, 2025
The final sample from the Loch Lomond pack comes out to play as I review the Loch Lomond 18 year. I also do a deep dive into Barrel Influence on maturing a Whisky relative to first fills, second fills and more, as well as how the ABV of the prior liquid impacts the wood over time and where the flavours from the Barrel are coming from. The 18 year…does NOT disappoint.

Episode 16: Loch Lomond 12 Year Single Malt
12 January, 2025
One down from my Loch Lomond sample pack, we move to the 12 Year. I also touch on Mit Farbstoff, and do a deep dive into why Oak is so popular for making Barrels, the different types, how it’s prepared, plantations of Oak trees and more. Oh, and I also review the Scotch!

Episode 15: Loch Lomond Original
5 January, 2025
Having picked up a sample pack of Loch Lomond a few months ago, it’s time to try them starting with the Original. I discuss Chill Filtering, what it is and why Distillers do it, as well as some background on the Loch Lomond Distillery.
