In this video I give you my take on several questions regarding how to help you preserve your whisky collection, based on my experience & discussions with other collectors, online searches, etc...Please note that it is not a comprehensive study with full scientific facts & advices, and if I had to go more in depth about what a cork is, it will be way too long & boring for you as for me. I’m just sharing here with you a survey of the main issues you might come across with your bottles of whiskies

Is ARDNAHOE Distillery Islay’s New Gem ? | Infinite Loch & Society Bottling 2024 reviews

My Albums of the Year 2025 & beyond | #MetalandWhisky #MusicandWhisky

I have the pleasure to present you my new video, which has been recorded & published in « degraded mode », with no stable connection from home, but still published thanks to a good friend of mine, so apologies if it’s not perfect, sound & presentation wise. For this video I’m coming back to one of my favorite exercises, purely subjective, of pairing music albums I love (here mainly in the general « Metal music » genre, and many of its subgenres, but not only…) with whiskies of my collection...I

For this new video, I am exploring what is similar in such remotely located whiskies, as 7190 km separate the Indian Radico Khaitan Ltd distillery’s RAMPUR « Barrel Blush » (a single malt) from the French Distillerie des Menhirs’s EDDU « Vallée du Rhône Nord » (a buckwheat whisky), both finished in similar wine type casks, with Syrah grape red wine (the Indian whisky being finished in Australian Shiraz wine cask, Shiraz being usually the name used for outside France production of Syrah grape var

My Favorite Whiskies of the Year 2025

Hello everyone, here is my "Favorite Whiskies of the Year 2025" video, which sees also a bit of a change compared to the 2024 one : There are now only 10 official categories (favorite this or that…), plus 2 honorable mentions lists, one being in fact my « Unofficial W.O.T.Y. 2025 (“Unobtainium, overpriced & High end” bottlings) Top 4” list, for a total of 30 official Awards & others mentioned. Among the 10 official categories, I did choose to suppress the countries of production mention, and ins
