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.

Westward Distillery is part of Portlands growing Distillery Row in downtown Portland. With a strong focus on their fermentation and leveraging their founders experience in Brewing Beer, Westward uses locally sourced Barley from Oregon as well as Wine Casks from a local winery and are turning heads the world over. I review their Pinot Noir Cask offering…and it’s rather good…

Episode 77: Pōkeno Origin Single Malt Whisky
1 June, 2025
Just South of the largest city in New Zealand, the Pōkeno Distillery has rapidly grown to become the largest Single Malt Distillery in New Zealand in a very short time. Hosting their own cooperage and employing a true Scot Cooper to lead the way they’ve established a name for themselves in less than a decade of operation. Their Origin Single Malt is one of their first releases, and it’s rather interesting.

Episode 76: Penderyn Celt Single Malt Welsh Whisky
28 May, 2025
Penderyn broke the 110 year drought of Whisky production in Wales in 2004 when they released their first Whisky. This time I review their Celt offering, which is part of their cooly-themed Dragon Range of Whiskies. Their still design is considered to be unique and designed by a relative of Michael Faraday. It’s interesting that’s for sure, but how does it rate?

The Our Barley Scotch from Lochlea is only the second Lowlands Whisky that I’ve tried. The distillery is a true farm to bottle distillery and I look at how it rapidly changed from being a cattle property to become a Distillery in the first place, given it’s youth, and also how it stacks up overall.

The first Lowlands Scotch Whisky I’ve tried is this, the Bladnoch Vinaya. I look at the history of the Distillery and how it got its nickname ‘The Queen of the Lowlands’ as well as how an Australian Entrepreneur helped to rescue the Distillery from liquidation about 8 years ago. Importantly, I also reviewed the Scotch.
