One of my favorite episodes. Loved the conversation between you two. Very informative. Very entertaining.

Outstanding as always gentlemen and yet another distillery I have to find a bottle of. I can find multiple GlenAllachie bottles at a store by me but not this particular LE release. I grab one of them. Thank you and keep up the great work. Cheers...

Great review as always. I’ve written off Glenallachie ever since Billy put his signature on everything to try and sell the old juice, albeit re-casked, at much higher prices. Maybe I’ll get one of these new ones… it is getting to be his juice (2017 he bought GA) and he does know what he is doing. He has now some peated GA called Meikle Tòir, which is okay. Specially the one called Turbo - which is very good. BTW, I am going to to be on you neck of the woods these next few days. But more by the “college on the hill” area. Time to check some of those state liquor stores. Slainte!

Again, a very nice review. While I have not had a Billy Walker dram, I have had the Glenallachie 12 Year. Two bottles as a matter of fact. The Billy Walker drams I have had are The Glenglassaugh Evolution and Torfa. Both of those are superb. I am a Billy Walker believer. I look forward to your videos in 2025. Cheers!

Cheers Colin & Malcolm 😉 Seasonal Greetings, I hear 'Meikle Toir' (Billy Walker's best attempt) has landed Stateside & I hope you add it to the bar 😋

Would you recommend that a whiskey novice such as myself would be prudent to stay away from complex whiskies until I was a little more experienced with some conventional ones?

Thats a super new release seeing as how it has the new label design. I still cant believe how much they messed up the labels. It was goofy with the Flintstones labels at first and now its just... boring. I've had the 10 YO CS batch 5 and 7, 15YO and a few old bottles from before Billy Walker. They are inferior to the old GlenDronach in every way to me. I've not had any new GlenDronach since I refuse to buy their Chill-Filtered stuff. Most of the GlenAllachie bottlings have such a high Oloroso cask influence already I dont really see how this would be something "Special" Compared to their normal stuff. I'll have some Edradour ALL DAY over something like this I'd say. Then again I've not had it.

One of the first whiskeys I ever tried. Nice memory.

He was right. It was five. 2 plus 6 equals eight plus 6 equals 14. 1 plus 4 equals 5.

I rarely drink whiskey or any hard spirits but I thoroughly enjoy watching your channel and vicariously savoring the whiskey drinking experience through you and your guests. By the time the episode is over I feel as though I have actually been imbibing with you. Good work.

That’s an outstanding French accent you put on Jura!

Outstanding as always gentlemen. First off, "Thank you" to Rick and all our Veterans. Second, 30 years ago when I was new to Scotch I was at a Binny's store when I walked past a gentleman pouring samples of Jura. I had never heard of it and was pleasantly surprised by the sample of 10 year old. I purchased a bottle of the 14 year old immediately and enjoyed it over the next 2-3 years. I need to replace that bottle ASAP, 27 years is too long not having a bottle of Jura in the collection. Thank you and keep up the great work. Cheers...🥃

Still brings a smile, when you guys pop a Jura, personally I don't😂🥃 Cheers Lads enjoyable watch, but I might have better luck next week to sip along.

The amount of grey hair in this video... We're definitely not getting any younger. Drink faster, fellas. :)

Why would you drink Jura

Great video, alongside the tour video, gives a big insight into Glenfarclas. Many thanks.

The first scotch I ever tried was the Ardbeg An Oa, so I feel like I jumped into the deep end of the pool right off the bat. Although "medicinal" was definitely what I smelled and tasted, I liked it. Have also had their 10 year, and liked that too.

Outstanding as always gentlemen and for once, I had a bottle to drink along with you. I am an Ardbeg fan and after I saw a review of this bottle by another UA-cam whisky reviewer I respect, I picked up a bottle. The reviewer said the barrels were toasted using an infrared method vs. fire. It is supposed to toast deeper and more evenly than fire. The note you posted about the extra mocha toasting of the cask heads is icing on the cake. I really like this bottle. There are extra layers of flavor to it that make it special. Thank you and keep up the great work. Kudos to Larry. Cheers...

Never had this one, this was about the time when I lost interest in Ardbeg releases as they felt a bit overpriced and underwhelming... I guess I lie a bit, since I did get 3 bottles of BizzarreBQ since that one was super tasty. For like 90 euros too so such a good deal. I love how Malcolm is turning into a peat fiend like most of us. One of Us, Gooble Gobble.

Opening my bottle of this to watch along with you. So excited!!!

MC Escher, nothing like the self drawing hands... Great review gents!

The Glenturret distillery is well worth a visit. I purchased the 2023 Triple Wood 43% abv. There's no mention on the bottle regarding the cask process, only tasting notes on the front and some distillery heritage info on the back.

Oh the crap I got for not saying it right - Leinster!!! Thank Colin and Malcolm! Excellent Jura!

When Johnny comes marching home again, Jurrahh, Jurrahh We'll pour him a dram of 10 year old, Jurrahh, Jurrahh... I have yet to try a Jura, mostly do the the bad rep it seems to have in the Whisky Tube community, but I hear that the recent Jura 16 Perspectives release is pretty special. That will be my first Jura, if I find it on the shelf. Thanks for the video. This is the reason why I keep a collection of various sized corks for potential replacement service. Cheers!

Have you ever had an independent Jura? They are incredible at Cask Strength between 12-30 YO, very herbal and spicy. Very much a unique malt. Sadly the owners completely disrespect their product by nuking it with E150 and Chill filtering it to heck. Get you some IB Jura friendos!

Great stuff as per usual guys. I have just had the first bottle of Inchgower land for me today , got the 'coopers choice' 2010 "beaumes de venise" (sweet wine cask finish) 53.5% - only had a couple wee drams of it so cant say much yet but it seems pretty decent. Been trying to get a few more bottles for my rotation as i sometimes only have 2/3 to pick from , keeping them on bedroom floor isnt ideal also haha i need space dude.

Bump two of these together for a resonate embrace, or mearly knock a single one against your favorite bottle of liquid exuberance to hear the universal call to celebrate. Call me sappy.. but I do love these glasses ❤😢

Sorry Colin where you messing about or do you believe it's Juh-ra verses juw rah for pronunciation 😂Never had an Inchgower but I'm open to new experience's, cheers🥃😉

One of my favorite stores near me in Massachusetts has this one (and a lot of other Mossburns) for $56. Sounds like a pretty good value to give it a try when I get the itch to try something beyond my core faves. Cheers!

Outstanding as always gentlemen. The only Inchgower near me is a Cadenhead's Inchgower 14 for $99 and after watching this episode, I just may pull the trigger. Thank you and keep up the great work. Cheers...

Oh hey, what happened to you guys doing the food/snack pairings at the end with each whiskey? That was always super interesting to me

Cheers! Since there are so, so many single malts to taste, I have only had Port Charlotte Islay Barley 2013 from Bruichladdich. That Port Charlotte is devine. Can't wait to try other Bruichladdich.

Like a kid in a candy store, Colin! I was surprised you didn't jump up and down with giddy laughter in that warehouse! What a privilege to taste whisky fro the Diageo portfolio in its natural state. They make some of the most beautiful whisky in the world! Unfortunate that their expressions are stripped and colored when they get to us.

The 15 and 21 are simply amazing! I feel they both beat the 17 and 25 by a mile. But then again that’s me. Excellent episode! Very informative…

I love living vicariously through you on this tasting and tour through an iconic distillery. I learned a lot about barrel management there! Fascinating how the older expressions carry peat influence even through the barrels because of previously held content. Well done Colin!

Nice follow-up video. Deborah has to be the best guide on any distillery tour video I've watched. I sure wish we got that 46% 15 year-old here, or that the US had a 46% option. I've had the 12. It was nice, but not a re-buy for me. There's a store near me that has the 17 for $115, which seems to be the best price I can find in the area. I'm tempted now to give that one a try, despite the 43%. Thanks for the tour. A bit jealous of your experience there, I must say. Cheers!

That must have been an amazing experience!

Keep up the great content guys love the channel. Big respect . If you guys can get ahold of M&S single origin 54% Dominican chocolate grab it, its an unreal pairing with whisky.They also do the same 54% single origin with blood orange too just as nice man really top end stuff as good as some of the really pricey choc ive had over the years.

Cheers Colin, I do like a CS Benromach & FYI a Kilchoman Sanaig CS 😋 57.8%. It dropped in the UK in the past week & would look good taking up the #1 slot.🥃

Another totally enjoyable show. You know what they say, “A blind squirrel finds an acorn every once in a while“. It was bound to happen, just didn't think it would be No. 1. Malcolm is spot on, there is nothing like shortbread, especially Scottish. Cheers!

I just love this show I bet the stories flow with you guys.

Wow… Wow… Wow…! Blue Randy is rigged!!!! 😂 Great show guys. Awesome dram! And yes, it is a little highland peat and actually it has some funk to it as well. I love the 21, always overlooked… But I think it is great… Lucky me!

Some of their marketing is keeping them from being considered the holy grail of the new generation along with the likes of Ardnamurchan, I think. The confusing batch number released and a million special releases just fail to draw the attention of many... Still, now that they're of age I've started following them and the whisky is excellent, wish them all the best - happy to see they have such a presence in North America... Reverse curls should be part of any serious self-care ritual, please protect your elbow joints guys.

Gentlemen, thank you again for the fun and informative review. At this moment there is a great indipendent Caol Ila 100 Proof from Signatory Vintage. It is only 9 years old but brillant.

Rather informative, thanks!

Gentlemen, thank you for this review. I enjoyed it very much. Yesterday I ordered this bottle. Actually I was looking for a copy from 2022 because of its excellent reviews. Unfortunately I couldn't find it.

Great video. Thanks for sharing. Looking forward to Part 2. Cheers!

Oh, the memories! Lots of changes from my visit about 10 years ago! Loved the video, can’t wait for part two!

Cheers Colin, I enjoyed your interaction with Deborah, plus I like that camera with it's auto everything😉
