Kentucky, Louisville, Benromach
Berry's Own Selection Clynelsih 1982
Single Malt - Scotland - 46.00%
7 A very pleasing dram with decent balance, but just a touch too discreet.
Berry's Own Selection Glenlivet 27 Years Old 1982
Single Malt - Scotland - 52.20%
7 The nose is enticing but the palate is overwhelmed by the wood. And water exacerbates the astringency.
Berry's Own Selection Port Ellen
- Scotland - 46.00%
8 This is top notch stuff. One of the best Port Ellen's for some while. Snap it up.
Bowmore 29 Years Old, 1982
Single Malt - Scotland - 47.30%
7 One of those Bowmores.
Bushmills 1982 Bourbon Cask
Single Malt - Ireland - 57.80%
8 An unusually dry expression of Bushmills. Complex. Austere. Bushmills needs a touch of sherry sweetness.
Celtique Connexion Caol Ila 1982
Single Malt - Scotland - 43.00%
8 A confusion of flavours that don't seem to have rounded in the cask
Chieftain's Choice Brora 1982, 19 Years Old, Sherry Butt
Single Malt - Scotland - 46.00%
7 Pure mastered (and mastering) Oloroso style. But where is the spirit contribution?
Craigellachie Hotel Craigellachie 1982, 2003 Single cask bottling, 21 Years Old
Single Malt - Scotland - 57.70%
7 I hope we will be seeing a little more of Craigellachie.
Dewar Rattray 1982 25 Years Old
Single Malt - Scotland - 62.50%
7 Perfect balance. An extremely good Caol Ila. Recommended.
Duncan Taylor 1982 25 Years Old
Single Malt - Scotland - 55.40%
7 Very strange. The nose and palate are miles apart.
Gordon & MacPhail Port Ellen 1982
Single Malt - Scotland - 40.00%
8 A restrained example of this fine malt, but the silent still is almost out of stock. There will be few further opportunities to buy.
Hakushu 1982 Sherry Cask
Single Malt - Japan - 61.00%
7 I would love this whisky if it had a little less wood. I want to love it anyway, but in the end the wood defeats me.
Inchgower 1982
Single Malt - Scotland - 53.90%
7 I'm an Inchgower fan but I'd want more from a whisky of this age.
Lombard Brora 1982
Single Malt - Scotland - 50.00%
8 Every time I pick up the glass, I find new flavours. A Scottish aquavit to send the Danes packing.
Mackillop's Choice Linlithgow 1982, Cask 1336
Single Malt - Scotland - 62.60%
7 Very pungent and powerful for a Lowlander. Tending toward harshness. This seems typical of these last Linlithgows.
Old Malt Cask Port Ellen 1982 21 Years Old
Single Malt - Scotland - 50.00%
8 A big beast of a Port Ellen, nicely caught before the sherry-wood tipped it over the edge.
Old Malt Cask Port Ellen Sherry 1982 25 Years Old
Single Malt - Scotland - 50.00%
7 A phenolic fellow. Tough on the nose, sweet on the palate. But the aromatic profile is not exciting.
Rare Malts Brora 1982, 20 Years Old
Single Malt - Scotland - 58.10%
8 Refreshing start; soothing finish. Quite a trick.
Rare Old St Magdalene 1982
Single Malt - Scotland - 40.00%
7 Livelier, fresher, less "difficult" flavours than in most bottlings.
Scott's Selection Aultmore 1982 29 Years Old
Single Malt - Scotland - 58.40%
8 Well-made and well-matured.
Talisker 1982, 20 Years Old
Single Malt - Scotland - 58.80%
9 Doesn't sound enjoyable? You bet it was.
The Whisky Fair Port Ellen Sherry 1982 25 Years Old
Single Malt - Scotland - 59.60%
7 Anenticing nose,a gentle feel but the alcohol spoils the pleasure. It needs a good dash of water to be drinkable
but then loses some aromatic impact.
Wemyss Vintage Malts Sugared Almonds 1982 30 Years Old
Single Malt - Scotland - 46.00%
8 The persistence of time has been kind to this, up to a point. Some lovely fruity creaminess if you can get past the oak.
Yamazaki Sherry Wood, 1982
Single Malt - Japan - 45.00%
7 Any whisky-lover would be glad of the chance to taste this, even if it is on the woody side.
