Review: Oban 15 Years Old Port Cask Finish
Hot on the heels of its 15 year old Cask Strength edition, Diageo has launched another Oban expression… and it’s another 15 year old. While the Cask Strength release was finished in sherry casks, this one’s done in Port (though at 52.1% abv, it’s not far from the proof of the cask strength expression). Turns… The post Review: Oban 15 Years Old Port Cask Finish appeared first on Drinkhacker: The Insider's Guide to Good Drinking .

The etiquette and politics of whisky write-ups and reviews
Reader discretion advised: Rant incoming, partially triggered by a whisky producer who didn’t take kindly to some feedback I gave them about their whisky. It seems the etiquette and politics of whisky write-ups and reviews might be evolving. But first I’ll set the scene…. I’ve been writing about whisky for over 20 years now; I … Continue reading "The etiquette and politics of whisky write-ups and reviews" The post The etiquette and politics of whisky write-ups and reviews appeared first on Whisky and Wisdom .

Review: Kilkerran 16 Years Old
Kilkerran, like many other Campbeltown whiskies, owes its existence to the late Hedley Wright. The fifth-generation scion of the whisky-making Mitchell family resurrected the single malt’s parent distillery, Glengyle, in 2004 after nearly 80 years of absence. Of the many dead Campbeltown distilleries to bring back to life, why Glengyle? It probably helped that the… The post Review: Kilkerran 16 Years Old appeared first on Drinkhacker: The Insider's Guide to Good Drinking .

The return of Michter’s ultra luxe Celebration Sour Mash, only the fifth release to date, somewhat overshadowed the announcement that the fan favorite 10-year-old single barrel was also on its way, destined for the top shelves at your local watering hole and the fancy display cabinets of those liquor stores lucky enough to get… The post Review: Michter’s Single Barrel Straight Bourbon 10 Years Old 2026 appeared first on Drinkhacker: The Insider's Guide to Good Drinking .

Sweeten the Pot
There is one ancient beer style that survives today but few breweries will attempt. It is a little mysterious, often misunderstood, and can be difficult to brew.

Review: Rumple Minze Cinnamint Whiskey
There are probably five bottles that pop into your head the second someone asks which liquor brands get a bad rap. Are those bad raps always warranted?

Review: Indri Agneya Indian Single Malt
One of the most notable distilleries in India, Piccadily’s Indri has become the largest-selling single malt whisky in India. Its latest release, Agneya, derives its name from the Sanskrit word meaning “belonging to fire.” As such, it’s a lightly peated expression aged in both sherry and bourbon casks, though it carries no age statement.
