Great review as always! I am on day 9 of a 10 day quarantine in New Zealand for work, as I am from Canada. For my isolation, I also brought a bottle to really get to know, but my choice was the Bunnahabhain 12. I knew I already loved it, but I agree that since it helped me get through these 9 days, it really hold an extra special place in my heart now.
I am following your reviews always with a lot of interest. As I like sherried whisky a lot, I have to agree completely with your rating certainly with your comparison with The Macallan. When I tasted this Glenmo Accord it made me think immediately of The Macallan Sherry Cask 12yrs, albeit that the latter is almost 3x the price of the Glenmorangie. In the same price category, the Glenmo 12 Accord easily comes on top compared with e.g. Glenfarclas 12 and Aberlour 12. Tx for your honnest and to the point reviews.
I'm a big Glenmo fan. I wish I could get this. Travel exclusives during a pandemic are frustrating! Great review sounds like an interesting variating on the core range.
Is it really a finish? According to my bottle it's a mix of 12 years in bourbon and 12 years in sherry, making the comparison to the finished lasanta interesting. No mention of finishing anywhere on my bottle. (Don't have the box anymore). Agreed, it's tasty!
Omg you're right. I don't know where that info came from. Maybe I was looking at my Lasanta bottle? Nowhere is that said on this one! I'll have to edit my description to reflect that. Good catch!
Nice to see you home making vids. This looks decent but I will just keep buying my Billy Walkers. I may be able to get this eventually as I often buy travel exclusives in markets here and Cambodia has duty free shops NOT at the airports you can purchase things at with a foreign passport...no kidding.. I got my Signets there, so, they carry Glenmorangie.. I was hoping my next sherry whisky would be a Kavalan...Cheers buddy!
ahahaha u got me there with '' what did I do for a week in the hotel'' Nice to know ur from canada! Can you do some canadien whiskeys reviews? Like the alberta premium one u talked about. Maybe lot 40, pike creek, caribou crossing! Thanks! great video!
I am a big fan of your reviews Jeff. Have you sampled the 1L travel exclusives Kavalan Vinho Barrique or Kavalan Solist Sherry? Are they of the same great quality as the regular releases?
I've only ever had them from the standard 700ml bottles. I'm sure generally speaking the quality should be about the same. Keep in mind the Solist releases specifically are single cask expressions, meaning there will be batch variation. I see no reason why the 1L bottle size would be of lesser quality, though. Cheers Krassimir!
Hello my bro, all your videos are very good, congratulations 🥃🥃.. Check between the Glenmorangie Accord and the Edradour 10, which one do you prefer? greetings 🥃🥃 
I'm also a fan of the Alberta Premium Cask Strength - it taught me that a adding a little bit of water can really enhance the hidden flavours of a high proofed dram. Mmm. (PH. Ha!)
Great review ... keep kicking them re the 46% + ABV Geoff, eventually they must listen. Back in the early days (1980's) GM's Lasanta etc were the available, affordable drams to first bring the different cask finishes to the market. It's a beginners brand I feel, though the signet comes well praised, and I remember the 18 year fondly (1986) with an epic side story you would not believe.
@@Gwhisky OK here it is ..1986 I was about to board a flight from Sharja to Baku Azerbaijan and didn't know if it was ok to bring alcohol, Az is a muslim country.

@@stihlnz Hah damn that's pretty crazy. You're lucky you made it out alive! Makes for a hell of a story though. Thanks for sharing, Tom. Read that out loud to the gf. We both had a good laugh about it! 😂
The glenmorangie signet seems to be really nice. I can get one for 165 euro's. I don't see the collector value because it keeps coming on the market, price getting higher and higher so still thinking about taking this deal
I Keep/ kept buying Glenmorangie’s have a whole line of em on my cabinet , looks impressive🤣 ..But after trying em , In truth I seldom manage to reach for them again , always something better and more appealing . 👍
@@Gwhisky That does suck. I'm researching that Glenmorangie Finealta. Seems to go for about $80, which is pricey, but it's 46% & 1L and I'd love to try it. So...
Currently on sale for ~56 euros at one of Bulgarian on-line shops. For 1 l. bottle the price is reasonable - ish. But still, how much better than Lasanta is it to convince me to get stuck with 1 l. bottle for an year at least? Because it will take me this long to finish it. I'll pass. I'm good with Quinta Ruban and Nectar d'Or :) BTW, some "unrealistic MF" of online retailers obviously bet on buyer's utter ignorance and charge around 170 euros for this. Same for the Elementa and Tribute... Cheers!

Lol good whisky definitely helps soften the blow of extreme boredom. Bunna is a great pick! 🥃
Thanks for the specs dear. It put me off. I was going to buy this one. As usual keep up the good work. 👍👍

I'll get into those Kavalans soon enough. Cheers!
@@Gwhisky I figured you would be the person I turn to for info and advice on them. Cheers buddy!
I recently brought a bottle. Only had a couple sips so far.
Is it a nice drink…..yes
Would I buy it again? Probably not
ahahaha u got me there with '' what did I do for a week in the hotel''
Nice to know ur from canada! Can you do some canadien whiskeys reviews? Like the alberta premium one u talked about. Maybe lot 40, pike creek, caribou crossing! Thanks!
great video!
Funny you should mention that. I just shot a list of my favourite Canadian whiskies. Should be out next week! 🙂
@@Gwhisky nice. Cant wait! Will buy everything u rate 86 and more 😅😅
@@andreipuscarenco532 Hah it's just a list. No ratings. 😬
@@Gwhisky can u give me a little spoiler? I immagine if its ur " favourit" list then they should all have good ratings? 😉🙃
Well I haven't tried a lot of canadians, so it starts with some solid basic stuff, but let's say no. 4 and up are all highly recommended. 👌

True. This one takes water beautifully! 🥃
Really good review, wish I could pick this up in South Aus. Out of curiosity, have you always lived in Taiwan, sir?
It might be available at your airport. And no, I'm certainly not a native. I first moved here about 13 years ago.

The Signet is fantastic, and the 18 is often overlooked. It's actually quite solid. This 18 story... I'm intrigued. Hah!

It's worth it. And I like that it's a steady release. Means it's for drinking. 😉
I Keep/ kept
buying Glenmorangie’s have a whole line of em on my cabinet , looks impressive🤣 ..But after trying em , In truth I seldom manage to reach for them again , always something better and more appealing .
👍
Hah fair enough. I think I like them more than you, but they definitely have some mass-marketed basic whiskies in their range. 🥃
Good review ! Glenmorangie good choice , i liked : )
Thanks! 🥃
What do you think about Glenmorangie 16 tribute?
I haven't had any of the other from this range, so I can't comment. A lightly peated Glenmo sounds interesting though. It could go either way...
You are so expressive
Hah thanks Sara! 🥃
Boy, a lightly peated Glenmorangie sounds interesting.
Agree! It was pricier, though.
@@Gwhisky Is standard Glenmorangie 10 40% in Taiwan?
Yes, unfortunately.
@@Gwhisky That does suck. I'm researching that Glenmorangie Finealta. Seems to go for about $80, which is pricey, but it's 46% & 1L and I'd love to try it. So...
That's one that I haven't tried. Could be decent. The private editions are a mixed bag but there are some gems in there...
Sir, you repeatedly used the term 'Entry Level' so I wonder what elements constitute as 'Entry Level' by your definition?
I tend to use it to refer to stuff that's roughly USD $50 or under in my market. Affordable bottlings, broadly speaking.
Купил сегодня 1 литр, как-нибудь попробую.
Enjoy!
easy drinking dram and great value for the money
Absolutely!
🤣 Phub logo. Quarantine time spending …

Yeah I mean the Quinta Ruban is legitimately nice stuff, and better than this given the abv.
€170? Hah... well he's ambitious... 😂
Nice review. Such a shame its 43%
Why is it a shame?
😂 PH Flash
A 16 year old peated Glenmorangie. 🤔
The Accord sounds delicious. I’ll keep my eye out.
😉 I'm curious about that 16 year old Tribute too. Could be interesting!
