Managed to bag a bottle of this on a deal for 16 quid, I’m looking forward to trying to make a pbj shot with it
Informative video , thank you .
I have btach nr2 bittle 123 and i wonder if its worth yo have thus one fir collection.
I loved my first bottle so bought another 2 , not really sure about the second bottle it’s nothing like I remember, going to leave it a while on the shelf to see if it calms down
Great idea @Ben
Must say glen Scotia have some cracking whiskies 🥃😁
I love Longrow and Springbank.
Does anyone know where the 3 new distilleries are going to get their water from?
Thanks Ben for the informative video . Great stuff. Cheers
You won’t get all that until it opens up after 2 weeks at least as the char wood overpowers the bourbon
if you had to chose only one, would you go for Lindores Abbey Casks of Lindores Oloroso Sheery or the Lochlea Fallow Edition - 2nd Crop?
I look forward to reading her book Love and Whiskey and trying her product! signed, historian.
I understand that while DiSaronno has added caramel color, Tosolini Solitza does not. Correct?
I've grabbed the Amarone version. Wish i had a miniature to try...
Ooh, I never saw this one.
I really want to try this. Thanks for the review
Can someone explain PX Sherry? I know Sherry but not "PX".
Short for 'Pedro Ximenez', a type of grape known for producing dark, rich, unctuous sweet Sherry wine - although on rare occasions you can find a dry Sherry using that grape!
I have a 750ml bottle. Well, I think it's fine.
OK, you got me! Fingers crossed for the ballot...
You're right, Ben. When ex-Bourbon oak hits that six-row barley Indian malt spirit then much tropicality ensues. I've loved it in Amruts, Paul Johns, and in the Indri Trini. I'm yet to try the Dru. The only one I had trouble with was the Rampur ‘Select’. Just a bit too much mango skin and this really sets in as an aftertaste.
any one tried it? is it better than grey goose Vodka?
Thank you for this!!! Uncle neared is a legend!!!
Sounds like Lochlea has an amazing distillery culture!
I must try this one
Can you review the kraken?
Great information and review my friend.
Excellent whisky 🥃… well done Spirit of Yorkshire…👍 Filey Bay! 👍
Peanut butter whiskey mixed with pineapple juice has a butterfinger candy bar flavor 😋
A great video Ben.I agree, another great finish from Filey Bay
Damn I would have loved a bottle, my grandad flew from airfields in Lincolnshire Inc this one
Not sure how sweet that is but Skrewball is pretty sweet. I also like it better chilled but have to cut it with a half shot of regular whiskey. Never heard of Sheep Dog but we found have a line of flavored whiskeys called Bird Dog. Crown Royal Blackberry with lemonade is all the rage right now. Very refreshingly dangerous summer drink. Can hardly taste the alcohol.
My mother loved DiSaronno and I enjoyed it with her. She passed in 2018 and I hadn't had any since. Recently, I bought a half pint because I'm not really a drinker. I was so looking forward to a shot. I was very disappointed! It was NOT the same. It had gotten cheaper over the years and I'll never buy it again. I am going to try the Tosolini Solitza if I can find it here in the states.
Good review! I like this whiskey a lot!
Hello my friends.
Please do not forget Lynchburg is less than an hour’s drive from the birthplace of the Klan. Just a couple counties over in Pulaski, TN. Yes, Nathan Green and Jack developed a relationship that endures today AT THE SAME EXACT TIME and PLACE in our Nation’s history that birthed some of the finest whiskey in the world and one of the most evil organizations ever. There is picture at the distillery of George Green, one of Nearest’s sons, seated to Jack’s right. That would been unheard of in that era. There has not been a time that Green’s descendants have not worked at the distillery to this day. We all have choices. Choose wisely. Just a thought from the old, white southern guy from Tennessee. Treat your fellow members of the human race right. They might be compelled to reciprocate.
i can see paul john
Took a chance on this brand and on this bottle and I'm quite pleased.
The bottle is beautiful. The whisky is awful. Too sweet and lacks character. The oak is there but overpowered by everything else going on. Great marketing though, I’ll give them that!
Sounds intriguing… I shall look out for it. Thanks Ben and Happy New Year. Ciao 👋 S.
Received a bottle of the inagural release for Xmas. Wow -What a dram!....If only I could pronounce it correctly, I am getting worse as the morning goes on!
He's drunk he said kyiv it's Kiev
Rly? How much u got for this kinda comment ? 30 rubles?
Here because of Nas and AZ 😂
Racism is always the Black innovators are left out of profit and history. They deliberately do it 😢
Hi Ben, Thanks for the review. Need to check my sample of the 1 edition tonight. Maybe I will put the 2 edition on my christmas list. Cheers from Germany
3:21 you sure you haven't had a few?😂
I have recently had the Ten, UIG and Coreyvreckan and I think this is very much superb, outstanding single malt scotch. I don't bother with the special releases as they are ridiculously expensive and hit and miss for quality but the core lineup is delicious. The new bottle of UIG that I recently bought along with new bottles of the Ardbeg TEN and Coreyvreckan cost a lot but each expression is spectacular and the UIG is a symphony on my palette!! Seriously! It's the best batch I have ever had. I wish you could carry some in your store. It's so popular I would think even with a bigger order it would sell. There is such a huge Ardbeg following and I would think you'd have people asking for it? Maybe not! Lagavulin, Laphroaig, Kilchomen, Ardbeg - huge favourites. The core lineup has a lot of information out there to be able to give to customers. You are a little manicky here! Hey I go there sometimes too - it's too many espresso in the morning before work! It gets be jolted and AWAKE!!! Love your reviews! Do you carry Lagavulin and Laphroaig? In Canada we pay about $100 for the TEN, 135 for the UIG and $205, all before our high taxes, for these amazing Ardbegs - for me? It's 100% worth every penny. In Vancouver where I live we have an alcohol tax provincially - 15% in addition to a provincial and federal sales tax. Annoying!! Cheers!! 🙂
I like the box with environment friendly card box only. Not magnet. I am not a collector of boxes at all. I opened by boxes without knowing about the problems others experienced and had not problems.
We've just had this enter the Australian market and I've been enjoying it too. Like you, I'm keen to try it in a few different Whisky cocktails.
I live about 4 miles from the Wire Works. I'd considered their gins before, but thought their gin to be too pricey. Having seen this video I popped by their place and bought a bottle of their Alter Ego. It was a pleasant surprise and worth the price. I'm more of a Talisker person, but I can see Alter Ego being a good alternative. Their shop was not open when I arrived, and you have to press a door bell button to have somone come from the distillery part of the site. It was a very friendly and informative encounter. Thankfully they'd not been hit with floods from the adjacent River Derwent.
You talk rubbish man I don’t like peanut butter but love this
