[@thewhiskyfriend]

Cheers buddy, so glad your enjoying my friend...

[@MrKyle1810]

[@WhiskyLoversSociety]

Love the new bar. Nice lineup.

[@djbeacon6895]

Thanks to a very generous friend I was able to pickup this beauty, my first Hazelburn. What a big, deep, dark sherry bomb.

[@thewhiskyfriend]

your defo going to enjoy that bad boy my friend....

[@carlosc9127]

Thank you for the video

[@thewhiskyfriend]

Your very welcome my friend...

[@garyk3675]

Love Hazelburn - have the 13, 14, and 15 oloroso versions among other Hazelburn bottling. Interesting they were getting progressively older until this one! Thanks again Alan!

[@thewhiskyfriend]

This was fantastic Gary, this should be hitting the states anytime soon my friend....its defo worth a pick up.....cheers

[@Dai240888]

Hi i tried the 13 recently and loved it and i on the search for it i found the 15 and ordered it. I just tried the 15s neckpour and also really like it. How would you describe the differences between the 13 and the 15? On some reviews people said the 15 was almost too old, too much sulphur. The 12 in comparison was more fresh and more accessible.

[@garyk3675]

@@Dai240888 actually, i have only opened the 14 so far so I can’t answer your question from my own experience! Though, from what I have heard, the 15 is great. I really like the 14 yo

[@phillewis3108]

I’d be delighted to spend £70 for a Hazelburn! I’ve only ever seen it at auction going for well over twice that!

[@thewhiskyfriend]

It's well worth the £70 Phillip I was lucky enough to visit the distillery and they were on the shelf.... Cheers for dropping In fella

[@topshelfwhisky]

I enjoyed this one. Fresh and clean with that SB feel and great casks.

[@thewhiskyfriend]

Was lovely fella...picked up 3 bottles very happy chappy...

[@cliffnorman178]

Sounds like a superb whisky.

[@thewhiskyfriend]

It's wonderful Cliff... Cheers for dropping in fella...

[@MasterMote]

Wow looking at that bar, im inclined to trust your opinion..you clearly have had many amazing whiskies. I can't lie, I'm a lil jealous of that collection of campbell town whiskies you got there😉

[@tomwelsh3735]

I opened the 13 and its real nice. I picked up the 15, but have not tied yet. Cheers

[@thewhiskyfriend]

There all wonderful... Let me know how that 15 is my friend... Cheers for dropping by

[@neilbloor8743]

Alan well worth the £70

[@thewhiskyfriend]

Hope your enjoying yours fella...

[@peathead4450]

Haven't had a Hazelburn in quite some time... shame on me.

[@sandrofazzolari8833]

Lovely dram for sure. In Italy it is now well over 100 euros and rising. Thanks 🙏 Alan. Take care ciao 👋 S.

[@thewhiskyfriend]

i dont think you will be disappointed with this one Sandro....thanks for dropping by my friend....

[@garyk3675]

Was finally able to get it-though it sold out really quick from my usual sources before i could get it - lucky I didn’t even overpay (though had to pay exta for shipping). It should arrive in a few days.

[@thewhiskyfriend]

Let me know what you think Gary but I'm sure you will love it my friend

[@TheDksotheacc]

Might be asked already a couple of times, but do you have like a list somewhere with your top scored whiskeys in the 80-100 range?

[@davidmason4812]
