Whisky Wednesday Reviews Millburn and Linlithgow – Whisky News
April 22nd, 2020
Millburn and Linlithgow – One distillery is northern and not particularly well known at all. It’s now a restaurant and hotel, no signs of it’s whisky heritage apart from the building that once made and stored the stuff. The other is a treasured lowland distillery with two different names: Linlithgow and St. Magdelene. The site was an leper colony, a convent, a hospital and a distillery before its closure in 1983. Two long lost to history but beyond contrasting and extremely different whiskies.

Distillery Focus: Tobermory at Hard To Find Whisky – Scotch Whisky News
April 16th, 2020
The Tobermory distillery lies in a tranquil harbour overlooking the seaside town of Tobermory. Established in 1798, it is the only distillery on the idyllic Hebridean Isle of Mull, and is one of the oldest in all of Scotland.
The Tobermory distillery produces two distinct but equally alluring single malt whiskies. Tobermory is unpeated, sweet, gentle, fruity, and carries the gentle fragrance of the sea. Ledaig is a different beast altogether. Sweet and oily with a heavy reek of earthy smoke, this bold, punchy peat monster can go toe to toe with the finest peated whiskies from Islay.

Mark’s Whisky Ramblings 305: Images of Tomintoul Malts of Scotland
Mark Dermul, Belgian whisky vlogger, tries a confusing malt… This bottle from Malts of Scotland is dubbed ‘Images of Tomintoul – Carrbridge Packhorse Bridge’, which might put you on the wrong track. Sure, the Tomintoul distillery is close to this bridge, but still 40 kilometres away. Closer, about 22 kilometres, you’ll find the Balmenach Distillery where Mark believes this malt was produced.

Mark’s Whisky Ramblings 304: Blair Athol 10 Year Old 2007 Signatory Vintage
Mark Dermul, Belgian whisky vlogger, gets offered a sample. ‘Hey, Mark, I have here a Blair Athol. I was wondering if you had tried it yet.’ Mark confessed, with almost 4500 tasted whiskies on my counter, he does not know this by heart. ‘I’ll have to check my website,’ he declares. ‘It’s not on there,’ Benny declares, expectantly holding the bottle with a good measure still in it. ‘Well, then I have not yet tried it’, Mark smiles, accepting the bottle in thanks. ‘Let’s finish off this bottle and update our list.’
