Whisky Whiskey is a video podcast about my exploration of Whisky in all of its forms.
Ardbeg’s 10 Year offering has long been considered the benchmark Islay peated Whisky and set the standard for both quality and value. It’s odd that I hadn’t tried this until today and given my recent interest in Peated Whisky, it’s one I’ve been looking forward to. I talk about the Ardbeg Committee, Dr Bill Lumsden and of course I review the Whisky…plus there’s a special note towards the end…

With over a hundred Whisky reviews now in the books, I thought it might be fun to review and clip together the highlights of my Ten most favourite Whiskies from the first one hundred I’ve reviewed on the show. Remember that taste is subjective and this is just my opinion, but these are some truly amazing drams. Enjoy!

With over a hundred Whisky reviews now in the books, I thought it might be fun to review and clip together the highlights of my 8 least favourite Whiskies from the first one hundred I’ve reviewed on the show. Remember that taste is subjective and this is just my opinion, and if you really like the 1495 Blended Scotch by Woolworths…power to ya…but it’s not for me. Enjoy!

With over a hundred Whisky reviews now in the books, I take a long hard look back at whether or not it’s possible to really, accurately judge a Whisky based on a single glass, a single sample. The result might surprise you…I tend to be rather self-critical…and the next steps I’m going to take should help.

I recently looked at importing a special bottle of Whiskey from the USA to Australia and the final number was so high, I didn’t do it. Also, with multiple listeners asking why Whisky is so expensive in Australia, I decided to do a deep dive and explain why Alcohol costs so much here…and it’s not because the exchange rate.

The last of the GlenGoynes in the tasting pack is the 18 Year Single Malt. I look at the unusual map line the Distillery straddles to decide if it’s schizophrenic or not…the distillery history and rate the Scotch. Is it worth that amount of money? Let’s find out!
