ralfy review 916 – Glenmorangie 13yo Cognac Cask @46%vol:

Welcome to this weeks episode of the show. This week I’ll be taking a look at some new releases from Hannah Whisky Merchants in their Lady of the Glen range.

This week, John Drinks was kind enough to have me help in dissecting the differences between the new Ben Nevis 10YO and the older and much more illusive bottling.

Needless to say that the contrast of the two is a chasm in comparison to a few small discrepancies of house style. It’s a real shame that those older Nevis bottles weren’t regularly available as they would’ve really cemented their place as one of the most unusual spirits in all of Scotland.

Cheers!

Mark’s Whisky Ramblings 431: Torabhaig Allt Gleann

Mark Dermul, Belgian whisky blogger, tastes a new release from Skye. After the successful launch of their Inaugural Release, the Torabhaig distillery founded on Skye in 2017 came up a few months ago with this second release in their so-called Legacy Series. The young malt, composed from around 300 bourbon barrels from 2017 and 2018, listens to the name Allt Gleann, which means as much as Old Valley. Like its predecessor, it is bottled at 46%.

Mark’s Whisky Ramblings 430: Bunnahabhain 12 Year Old 2009 Klubb23 for Buds & Barrels

Mark Dermul, Belgian whisky blogger, tries an independently bottled Bunnahabhain. Mark says: ‘Bunna 2009 on sherry? I have good memories of that. There’s good reason for having bottled such a cask with Mark & Manny’s malts. But our friends from Klubb23 also could get their hands on such a cask and bottled it for the shop Buds & Barrels, run by our good friend Tom Haseldonckx.’ It’s the first of a series of four single casks in the series ‘L’Histoire  d’Alixe’, so we have something to look forward to. Nice label, by the way, by the hand of Annie Mation (see what she did there?).
