Episode 148: The Macallan 18 Year Sherry Oak 2017 vs 2024
24 December, 2025
Having just reviewed the 2024 release of the Macallan 18 Year Sherry Oak, I discovered what was left of my sample from many months ago of the 2017 release…so what’s a good Whisky-reviewer to do…? Why, side-by-side compare them of course…and pick a winner. This turned out very differently to what I’d expected…

Episode 107: 101 Wild Turkey Kentucky Bourbon Whisky
30 July, 2025
Having tried a LOT of Whiskies now, I return to my previously self-proclaimed ‘favourite’ Bourbon…the 101 Wild Turkey. I also look at how is compares now, today, against others I’ve tried including the Australian Corn Whisky, Neds Grand Reward. Will it still hold up as my favourite Bourbon…or has it lost it’s top spot?

Episode 106: Cape Byron Tawny Cask Single Malt Whisky
26 July, 2025
The sixth and final Cape Byron offering in this week of Byron culminates in a truly outstanding Single Cask offering…the Tawny Cask Single Malt. I also look at some of the requirements for becoming a B-Corp Certified company that Cape Byron worked very hard to achieve. In the end though, what can I say about this Whisky? I love a good Port finish, but is next-level yummy.

The Serendipity is Cape Byron’s Heavily Peated offering and whilst I debate what Heavily Peated really means in practical terms, I also touch on whether the principled arguement of Terroir makes sense if the Whisky tastes good or not. Oh, and I also review the Whisky!

The Cape Byron week continues today as I review their Stone Beer Cask offering. It’s a collaboration with the nearby Stone & Wood Distillery as they have a barrel-swap arrangement whereby Cape Byron Casks are used to mature a Stone Beer, then when they’re done, they give it back to Cape Byron to mature their whisky. The result is…well…pretty impressive!

With two down, the Chardonnay Cask is next and it doesn’t disappoint. After covering the pros and cons of aging your barrels near the ocean and looking at where they source their barrels from in the first place, I review the Chardonnay Cask, and whilst it was technically their second release…it’s my favourite Cape Byron Whisky of the three I’ve reviewed to date.
