Springbank 5 yo 100° proof (2025, OB, 57.1%)
Manchiamo dalle sacre sponde (quelle di Campbeltown, Zacinto la lasciamo al bro Ugo Foscolo) da troppo tempo. E soprattutto manchiamo dal core range di Springbank, una delle nostre distillerie-rifugio, dove andiamo ad accoccolarci quando il mondo fuori è cattivo e il whisky non ci entusiasma. Orbene, il gran ritorno lo facciamo recensendo l’ultimo ingresso nella… Continue reading →

Highland Park Heather
Heather (or heather honey) is one of the most common tasting notes in Highland Park whisky. The island of Orkney has no trees so the local peat has abundant heather at its base. It's no surprise the distillery named an expression after it.This new packaging is fairly modest and refreshing. No viking elements, just graphical things and a pink / purple colour scheme that doesn't seem to aim for the classical whisky audience. There's no age statement but we've heard Highland Park Heather ages for around 11 years.Let's see how this compares to the Cask Strength release I had a couple of months ago.

Balla con Ballindalloch
Lunedì è un giorno complicato, di solito i posticipi di Serie A sono osceni, perfino per il livello osceno della Serie A. In più, mediamente si torna al lavoro dopo l’illusione di libertà del weekend, il che rende la vita ancor più caina. Ecco perché è con grande piacere che siamo finiti a lenire le… Continue reading →

inchgower 9 yo (2016/2026, Lloyd’s liquid sunshine, 54.2%)

Diageo LE Mega-lineup
We’ve worked with a ton of brands over the years, but Diageo was a tough nut to crack as we couldn’t get a consistent contact to work with. Diageo distilleries showed up frequently in our line-ups as independently bottled expressions, but never OBs. We picked up a bunch of LEs from a local collector and decided we’d just run an event on our own without … The post Diageo LE Mega-lineup appeared first on Toronto Whisky Society .
