Upon receiving a Christmas gift of six Whisky samples to review on the show, I was delighted when I found this one in the pack… I’d heard a lot about BenRiach and it’s connection with Billy Walker, of more recent GlenAllachie fame. For the first BenRiach I’ve reviewed…this one is a cracker!

Unlike my last year in review, this has genuinely been a full 12 months of Whisk(e)y tastings, reviews and learnings and I feel far better positioned to provide recommendations this time around. There’s some old favourites and some new discoveries to share! I pick my favourite recommendations for Easy-sipping, Sherried and Peated Whiskies that are reasonably priced…as well as throw in two of my absolute favourites of all time (so far). Strap yourself in…this is a good one!

The Victoriana is a favourite of many Whisky enthusiasts so I just had to get my hands on a sample and give it a shot! I cover some more about the dark history of Glen Scotia and I also review the dram and contrast it with it’s 15 Year brother. Is it worth the extra money?

My exploration of Campbeltown continues as I shift from Glengyle to Glen Scotia. This particular dram I tried at a Whisky Club evening and I subsequently grabbed a bottle when it was on special. Perhaps that’s spoiling the ending about how much I liked it…but let’s review this properly shall we?

On my trip to New Zealand in July this year, my son and I stayed near Christchurch and while there I stopped by at the lovely Whisky Galore store. They had so many I would have liked to have grabbed however this bottle caught my eye. I grabbed it, had some of it while I was there but couldn’t bring it home to Australia with me, so just brought back a sample. I’d tried and enjoyed the Batch 6 at a Whisky Club night last year…how does the Batch 11 compare?

After a brief coverage of where Ardbeg source their Peated Malted Barley from I tackle a review of the strongest ABV Ardbeg in their core range. Up there in intensity against the Laphroaig 10 Cask Strength…can it beat it…or does it fall short? Time to find out!
