We're looking at a couple of younger Kilchoman releases, including a not often seen blanc-de-blanc finish.

It’s always exciting to check out a new indie bottler and it’s doubly exciting when it’s an Islay whisky we’re looking at. We’ve got two Laphroaig releases under the microscope today.

Two Islay festival releases from SMWS, both PX finished for a good amount of time. Has the sherry married well with the Caol Ila and Bunnahabhain spirit?

A comparison of a NAS distillery release and an IB 30 year old will forever be skewed in most whisky lovers eyes, but we're excited to see if the Macallan DNA is present in both of these releases.

Two IB Blair Athols, distilled within a month of each other and both finished in different casks .. will we prefer the more common oloroso cask maturation, or be swayed by the rarer mezcal cask?

We look at two cask Strength offerings from Talisker to find out if these younger, punchier drams are worth the money.
