Only 2-3 bottles were sent to Australia, so this might be one of the rarest whiskies we have taste this year, possibly this decade. It was amazing to say the least.

Carn Mor Virtual Tasting - March 2024
Maighstir really was a stand out with clementines and fruit juice notes. The two entry level Wiseman Bourbon and Wiseman Rye were delicious as well. Maureen’s guidance over each dram and insights are fantastic. Thanks guys, wish I had been able to join in live
Looks like an excellent tasting! Shame I couldn't join.
Always Good fun and great value.
Officially the best brand ambassador in Australia right there 👏
Andy punches hard 🥊
🎉 😁
Far too much preamble ,please talk about the whisky
Appreciate the feedback Pete. We’re trying to cut back on the talk and straight to the whiskies sooner
sounds like a winner!
Great interview with Rachel Thompson. They’re seem to be making some great whisky after sampling some of their range in the recent VT.
Pleased as always to have the chance to try more whisky - thank you TWL! Definitely succeeded in forming a "scotch-esque" bourbon in Maighstir but I can't go past those berry/blackcurrant notes in confiscated! Looking forward to your coming blend Maureen!
We're big fans of the confiscated. Hands down wins the taste challenge every time in that lineup. Thanks for joining the virtual mate.
Another great virtual. The 2 Wiseman’s were great value, especially the rye. Pick of the night for me was definitely the Maighstir, followed closely by the Takumi. Great introduction to the brand.
Thanks Noel. Love how opinions are mixed on this lineup. The Takumi, Confiscated and Maighstir all doing well in terms of sales as well.
Def a fave virtual of the year so far. Loved every release we tried, and was surprised that my fave of the night was the one I expected to like the least. Ended up buying a bottle. This is why I love the virtuals!
Love how Justin is changing it up with his releases. I think people are starting to understand his methodology and approach. Definitely showed with how popular this tasting sold out.
Yes, I read Thompson Bros too at first. Haha.
Haha, it's tricky isn't it.
Absolutely the best way to try before you buy. Don’t think there’s been any that I haven’t enjoyed.
🤣🤣🤣
Sounds great. Have enjoyed the other Morris whiskies I’ve tried. If I’m having whisky with a mixer, I tend to always use rye, so I might have to try this one out. To be honest, the apple juice highball sounds delish
Emma highly recommends the apple juice highball, definitely worth a try. Refreshing AF.
😮😮😮
We have part 2 coming soon with our tasting notes. Was easily top 2 whiskies we had this year.
@@TheWhiskyList can’t believe you actually got to try it!
Definitely one of my fave virtuals from the last year. The Old Fitz 17yr blew me away
Have become a huge fan of Sagamore. Great base rye, but the finished ryes are done really well. Love the sherry finish rye and the rum cask goes ridiculously well in a ginger highball
Great show every year, and lineup changes every time so is always a fantastic day out. The yearly event I certainly won’t miss
Where?
@edfriday7709, there 2024 season has ended. There is one final whisky festival TOP SHELF being held in Sydney on October 19th. There will be 10-12 Whisky Shows across Australia in 2025. We list our shows here: thewhiskylist.com.au/events?eventType=show
Karen & I love the virtual tastings. Living a rural town, it great to be able to go to a Whisky Tasting and not have to stay overnight and drive 100kms to get to the tasting. We have tried so many amazing whiskies that that we wouldn't have bought even in a bar, as we don't want to waste money on a whisky we don't like.
I'm so glad to hear you're enjoying the virtual tastings! It's amazing how technology connects us to experiences we might not have otherwise. - Thanks, Emma
Hakushu 18 for sure
Excellent choice
Hakushu 18 pls!!!
It's a stunning whisky that's for sure.
Love joining these tastings 🥃
Love joining these tastings? Wait until you see how much I love the snacks afterwards! 😂
Sad I missed this one, very keen to try that Glentauchers 🤤🤤
Absolutely love the Whisky List virtuals!!! Best way to either try a range of whiskies from a distillery I’m not familiar with, or to taste some absolute unicorns that I’d never have been able to try otherwise. Also, best way to try before I buy! Only hard part is stopping myself from doing absolutely every virtual tasting that comes around.
Yeah it sucks when you try and then want them all. Restraint is so hard haha
Haha yep. Sometimes I think it would’ve been better not knowing how good some of these whiskies were lol
I love what you guys do I'm a whisky drinker..and have three of your offerings so far .and enjoy them all .I will be adding more soon ..thank you and keep up the great work..Trev.
Thanks Trev. We love sharing great drams too!
Great work David. Will need to keen this in mind, luckily I haven’t suffered a broken cork YET! I know my time will come
Haha, the cork gods are smiling on you Noel!
Emma it’s nearly as big as your Classic Laddie! 😂
Haha, it really does look like it could give the Classic Laddie a run for its money!
Amazing lineup for the evening, really enjoyed it. For me the standouts were the Springbank, Glen Moray & BruichLaddich but o be honest they were all stellar drams. And the company wasn’t bad either. Can’t wait for the next one.
Seriously hard to pick between those top three
Another amazing lineup. The Glen Grant and the Glen Moray both really surprised me by how great they were. The Bruichladdich was just a touch too funky for my tastes haha
Laddie was polarising but that Glen Moray damn
I really enjoy watching these tastings with Angus, thanks for posting and great work! Cheers.
Glad you like them!
wow interesting to see those poll
Yeah poll at the end keeps all our tastings super honest. There's a whisky for everyone
These are by far some of the best whiskies on the market. Worth every penny.
Massively agree with this statement.
This was such a great lineup!
Absolutely stunning lineup!
Loved the Bruichladdich and the Springbank. The Glen Moray was top 3 as well. Stunning whisky
As good as it gets!
Great advice
Thanks mate
just for clarification, of course it's best to use a coffee filter instead of a paper towel. This demo shows how easy it is using materials one might have at home already, to be used in an emergency cork crisis
Thanks for clarifying Maestro!
This technique is brilliant!!! 😂😂😂
1:27 is when the real magic happens
So cool
We thought so too!
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Hello sir How about 10 year ?
10yo Glendronach would be awesome!
whiskey and beer!
Boilermakers are awesome. We wrote a helpful guide on them a few years back thewhiskylist.com.au/guides/boilermakers-beer-whisky/
I like to learn about my distillery. 😂 There was a McHenry whiskey in Benton, Pennsylvania 19th century.
Small world haha
ONLY HIGH QUALITY ONES.
Once you try a Glendronach, hard to go back to anything else haha
@@TheWhiskyList Wish to taste one soon🙂👍
Hi
@@bobbypascale hello
Hi Bobby
The Fillioux xo 44% is fantastic. About a 30-35yr old blend i think.
Yeah it's stunning, we're big fans too!
what machine is that?
I'll have to ask, our printer has it at their warehouse. Might be an OMTech.
I'm researching Glenlivet 12 for purchasing. It's looking like a definite yes. Thank you SLAINTE 🥃
Yeah it's a solid dram. Tastes great and is consistent in flavour between batches.
This guy is in customs
Yeah not sketchy at all haha
☺️ *promosm*
thats hilarious among whiskey bottles
