Inchgower 1982
Single Malt - Scotland - 53.90%
7 I'm an Inchgower fan but I'd want more from a whisky of this age.
Master of Malt Caol Ila 30 Years Old
Single Malt - Scotland - 57.40%
7 Incredibly crisp and strong for its age. Water mellows the nose but makes the palate more astringent. Lack of balance.
Master of Malt Cragganmore 20 Years Old, 1991
Single Malt - Scotland - 54.20%
7 An unexpectedly light (but well balanced) Cragganmore.
Master of Malt Highland Park 13 Years Old
Single Malt - Republic of Ireland - 56.00%
7 Refreshing and well balanced. The nose promises more than it delivers on the palate. I have never come across such a phenolic HP.
Master of Malt North British 1991 20 Years Old
Single Grain - Scotland - 55.80%
7 It might lack the layering you want from a 20 year old but its vibrancy is to
be praised.
Speyside Whisky Liqueur 10 Years Old
Liqueur - Scotland - 37.00%
7 Would make a good Rusty Nail.
Speyside Whisky Liqueur 40 Years Old
Liqueur - Scotland - 43.00%
8 I'm not a big liqueur fan, but this is a bit special.
The Dalmore Single Cask
Single Malt - Scotland - 55.50%
7 Decent enough but a little underwhelming.
