- Welcome back to a new series from me The Whiskey Novice.
This time I'm starting another 4 part series focusing on 2 distilleries from Campbeltown in Scotland. Those distilleries are Springbank and Glengyle. Both independent distilleries owned by the Mitchell family.
First, in review #24, I take a look at Hazelburn 10 year old from the Springbank distillery.
Thanks for watching.

Nice review - just catching up! I've recently purchased a bottle of HB 10 and planning to take it on holiday next month and seeing how the bottle develops over the course of a fortnight.
Great review. Very glad you were recommended on a livestream last week, or I don't know that I'd have known you were even out here. Keep up the good work.
Cheers Steve. Yeah I'll be eternally grateful to Roy for that one 😁.
Fantastic review, was waiting for "then try this"... I rewatched this and drammed along with you. I'm a bit past the shoulder now and it's an incredible citrus bomb.
I'm admiring your ability to articulate the experience. I keep thinking that more expensive whiskys will show themselves better but it's the complexity that actually makes a better whisky harder to read and therefore more rewarding to get to know.
Whisky tube has been a great thing in my journey so please keep up the good work.
🙏 glad you enjoyed it my friend. I'm always learning too which is why I'm quite happy to keep the "novice" title.
Cheers.
Yes, Whiskey Novice. Very much enjoyed the review. Looking forward to the rest of the series. And that shirt is spectacular, sir!!!
Thanks very much. I'm tickin' all the right boxes then? 😂
This is a good one, 10 years old and 46% is outstanding. Nice job sir, Slainte!!
Cheers Scot. It's good stuff for sure 👍🥃
Very enjoyable. Thanks Jim.
Cheers Malcolm.
First! :-)
Speaking of whisky friends you haven´t met in person: Please consider coming to Limburg Whisky Fair in Germany (whiskyfair.de, April 25 and 26))!
So far we are 15 of Roy´s barflies (him included) meeting there (again). Flights to Frankfurt are typically cheap and the Toyoko Inn*** has rooms for less than 40 pounds per night.
My first first 😁. Cheers doc.
Hey I'd love to buddy but as someone who's self employed and works every weekend, I have to be very choosey about when I can take time off work. I'm already losing work in April so unfortunately can't afford to take any more off.
Sounds like it'll be great though. I wish all of you a great time.
@@WhiskeyNovice Alrighty, maybe next year then or another whisky festival. Thank you!!!
I literally couldn't go even if I wanted to. I've been holding off renewing my passport until I found out what was going to happen with them post brexit. I didn't see the point of throwing around £100 (that I could be spending on whisky!) at a new one, then finding out it's no longer valid and I'd just need another new one. So I'm trapped here at the moment! Have drinks for me while you are there Doc.
@@thewhiskybowman yeah it's a curse isn't it! It went so long and then just like that...it's done but now, as you've said, we have to wait around longer wondering where we stand re: travel, etc.
@@thewhiskybowman We will! £100 for a passport? That is insane! Better spend it on whisky. Cheers, Doc
It has been said already but you are very good at editing. The format of your reviews is spot on, good length, good présentation, good sound and of course, a great knowledge about scotch.
Thanks mate. That's incredibly kind of you to say. Cheers.
Just found out about your Channel during Dom’s stream. Great stuff!! Keep up the great work!! Cheers!!🥃
Cheers mate. Much appreciated.
Awesome video Jim and a really kind shout out for Stuart 🙏
Cheers Ant. Oh there's plenty of love to go around. Still haven't worn your shirt cos I'm holding onto it for the very purpose of love sharing 😆
Whiskey Novice cool, can’t wait to see it on you 👍 And some love will be coming your way from us in the near future so keep em’ peeled 👀
Stuart sent me to say hi 👋. Good review, great whisky and excellent beard. Cheers 🥃
😄😄cheers mate 🥃. Good to have ya.
Whiskey Novice good to be here 👍
Great review Jim, I'm enjoying more and more your approach....I hope you'll get more exposure & recognition...Nice shout out to Stuart as well (often in dialog with Johnny on Spirits People channel/podcast). Cheers !
Cheers Greg. Very kind of you to say. Many thanks.
@@WhiskeyNovice you're very welcome, I gave you a shout out also on latest Vin's live (No Non Sense Whisky) comment section, as I noticed your name was missing imho...
@@GregsWhiskyGuide 😄 aww cheers man. I'll get to watching his live tomorrow. Was gigging tonight while it was on. Thanks buddy.
Another awesome review mate ✌
Cheers Stuart. Appreciate it mate.
Great review once again Jim - you just keep on oozing quality! I haven't had this one yet, but I've got a few Scotch reviews in the offing. Cheers.
Cheers Al. It's a lovely whisky mate. Would recommend it highly. If you don't mind me asking...whereabouts in the country are you?
@@WhiskeyNovice Annalong - down the coast between Kilkeel and Newcastle. I'll definitely keep an eye out for it.
@@WhiskeyStraightAl agh right. Lovely part of the country. We'll definately have to get something orhanised between us at some point. Cheers mate.
You've got me checking out Whisky Whims now. (Like I'm not spending enough time on youtube as it is!) I must have been getting him mixed up with someone else as I have seen him popping up but I always thought he was American, and he was more about American whisky, so I never actually checked him out before. I was genuinely surprised when you said he is a fellow Scot!
😄😄 Stuart's a good lad. He has genuinely introduced me to sum crackin' whiskies. None of which were American btw. He tends to take quite a dim view on American whisky. The words "nail" and "varnish" come up quite a lot 😆
@@WhiskeyNovice Yeah, I've clearly confused him with someone else I wasn't interested in, so have just blanked him by mistake.
Nice review, interested in this one, I have the Springbank 10 but not tried the Hazelburn yet. On oxidation of Whisky, I've was given an opened bottle of BNJ 8yr last week that had been opened for over 10 years and forgotten. I did try BNJ in 2005 quite an extreme example but from memory, surprisingly I don't think it was spoiled in anyway, may have changed profile slightly. Cheers Kev
Cheers Kevin. Yeah I'm actually a firm believer in letting whisky oxidate in the bottle. I know the inert gas sprays are available to pretty much prevent them from changing, but you would never get to fully enjoy the subtle changes which happen as the bottle drains.
It makes for an interesting experiment 😁.
Absolutely agree, It's great seeing how the profile changes from the neck down once a bit of air gets in there.
I sometimes get 'mandarin orange' from Longrow NAS. I'm I mad?
