The sherry cask edition of the 2022 Octomore bottlings - funk, funk, funk.

The first of three 2022 Octomores, the 13.1 is peated to 137.3 ppm and aged in ex-bourbon casks.

One of the most popular whiskies in the world - Jameson is a versatile drink with consistency.

Famous for highballs, this Japanese blend is available everywhere and reasonably priced.

A grain whisky from Spain - this is a small outturn made from the contents of 3 Palo Cortado casks.

Our first foray into Indian whisky, and we’re starting with a single malt - can this bottle of Brilliance live up to its name?

Saucy barbecue and waves of peat - for us, this batch 13 of the Laphroaig 10 Cask Strength is the cream of the crop.

A bottle full of green, seaside, boggy peat, in the best way possible.

Laphroaig 10 at cask strength - if you like coastal peat, what more can you ask for?

A blended bourbon with an exotic cask mix - new charred oak, rum, Sicilian amaro, and pear brandy casks will each have their impact.

A rum cask finish with a 14 year age statement - sweet, rounded, with lots of vanilla, quite pleasant.

The first of a series on rum cask-finished whiskies - how will this rye, at 50%, represent Angel’s Envy?

How does this stack up against our other cask strength favorites, Wild Turkey Rare Breed and Redbreast 12 CS?

The normal 12 year bottling is a mainstay on our shelf, always a great sipper with a couple of interesting flavors to offer. How will this one stack up?

Weighing in at a solid 117 proof, this is our go-to bourbon if we're looking for a punch

Our last peated Speyside whisky (for now) - Glenfiddich’s experimental series lands on peated spirit with a rum cask finish. We do love some sweet + peat.

Another peaty Speysider, this one from Benromach, a small distillery making whiskies with a lot of old-school character.

The first of three peated Speysider reviews - how will the variety of casks interact with the smoky spirit of this core range BenRiach?

A single barrel bourbon pick from an up and coming Indiana distillery - this shows a lot of potential.

A classic from Islay, despite the lack of heavy peat - this one’s staying on the shelf.
