Mark’s Whisky Ramblings 312: Islay 8 Year Old Ypres Whisky Friends / The Magnificent Five

Mark Dermul, Belgian whisky vlogger, tries an Islay whisky. The guys of the Ypres Whisky Friends have realized their first club bottling. It’s an Islay Blended Malt, although that is to be taken with a grain of salt. The cask number leaves no doubt that this is a Laphroaig, according to insiders teaspooned with a bit of Caol Ila, so that it can no longer be termed single malt. They share the cask with the Magnificent Five – also from Belgium – who took the rest of the cask, but selected a totally different packaging.
