    Evan from KWM here - Great video!
    It will come as no surprise that we at Kensington Wine Market are big fans of indie bottlings.
    Nothing beats diving nose first into a Glencairn glass with a small batch or single cask whisky, hopefully at cask strength. What excites me is the new and different - not going back to the same 40% or 43% bottling over and over again.
    The consistency of the official 12 year and 18 year Official Bottlings can be comforting to return to, but they cannot eclipse the thrill of jumping into a limited one-off single-cask Indie Bottling for the first (and maybe last) time.

      Thanks Evan! Agreed! Some OB’s are better than others for experienced maltheads but store pics and indie selections at a store where you know who’s picking ‘em is always the cat’s meow. I have a small cache of your store cask releases in Winnipeg.
      Cheers🥃🥃🥃🥃

    Basically love Independent bottles. Even when they are not great, they often give a chance to taste the distillate a different way. Glad this one had some great "whisky only" notes that hit your brain just right! Love waxy tropical notes too. Cheers!

    5:19 Mark! Dude! You're too young to be having a senior moment! 😉 Good on ya for leaving that in the edit - it shows you've got self confidence and a good sense of humor.
    About the whisky - big fan of Glen Scotia here. I've tried their Double Cask, 15yo and Victoriana and find all of them to be very good Scotch at good value. I haven't had this or any other a IB Glen Scotia, but I've had a number of other IBs and they've all been good, with a few of them being truly outstanding. Last year I found an SMOS bottling of a 12yo cask strength Highland Park that is the best HP I've ever tasted PLUS it was just $95.00, which was a steal considering the quality. Scotch aficionados who haven't delved into independent bottlings are missing out on some excellent spirit, and this 22yo Glen Scotia sounds like one of the real winners!

      Hi Paul! Haha yes you said it! Definitely try to laugh about my own quirks…of which there are many!! I should probably write up a loose script🤣
      That HP sounds like a dream. And I agree with your comments - it’s as if the big shops, the bars, the whisky festivals all set up the newbies for a good 5-10 years of brand loyalty. I suppose it’s also like walking in a strange town at night without a map…before smartphones came out. Indies are anti marketing almost.
      My next purchase in Korea might be a bottle of Hepburns Choice, maybe a Benrinnes. Still $100 USD here but other than Talisker 10 and Ardbeg 5 at $50 and 45 here, everything is $100 and up.
      Cheers🥃🥃🥃🥃

      @@WhiskyWhistle Oh, that HP really was a dream - it was stated on the label as being matured in a sherry butt that yielded around 630 bottles if I recall correctly. It must have had a considerable amount of wine still in the barrel, as the color of the whisky was unusually dark and opaque. I'm not really a fan of most sherry bombs, but this one was incredibly rich and really complimented the Highland Park's spirit. I'm going to keep an eye out for any more SMOS bottlings that show up!

      Winnipeg lost a pretty good guy in my opinion when you left so I suppose Korea gained one. 🙂
