Balblair 1983? Yes please.

Balblair are re-launching The Gathering Place; their online community and discussion forum for all things Balblairy. I was asked to jot down a few vaguely coherent thoughts for them to celebrate the revamp and to review one of their upcoming new releases, the 1983 vintage.

Big Peat Christmas Edition 2013

As I mentioned in my previous article, I was lucky recently to taste Douglas Laing’s new Old Particular range the other week at their lovely offices/town house in Glasgow. We tried some awesome whiskies, including an ancient Bowmore (available here) but, I’ll be honest, one dram stood a hairy beard and shoulders above the rest, [...]...

Old Pulteney Lighthouse Series

If you’ve visited the duty free shop in the airport departure lounge recently in your bid to escape the impending Scottish gloom and bask in some winter sun, then you maj have noticed some rather eye-catching Old Pulteneys.

The Glenfiddich Cask Collection

For those who know me, it’s no secret that I have a soft spot for Glenfiddich; the 15yo Solera Reserve was one of the first bottles of whisky I ever bought, I organised a trip to the distillery for a close friend’s stag do earlier this year, and I’m frequently impressed with their pioneering innovations.
