    This video made me smile. I found it for $115 all in. If I could feel as good or as happy as Kevin is here I’d snap it up in a heartbeat. Great during quarantine you had such a time of reflection. During that time I wasn’t buying as much.

    Thank you for all your reviews, they have been very helpful to me as I just started venturing into the realm of scotch whiskey.

    Just got my first bottle, batch 70. Thanks for your review, and the other video comparing to the Annamh. Very helpful!

      I love when my reviews are helpful, James. Thanks for letting me know and enjoy the A'bunadh. Cheers!

    An absolute favorite!! I've tried about 10 different batches and they never let me down...

      When I don’t have a bottle of A’Bunadh in my cabinet, I forget how much I love it. Then I get a bottle and drink it too fast… repeating the cycle. 😆

    Love it! Tastes like liquid Baklava. Burns my eyes when I sniff it or drink it. Love it! Batch 65. 59.5%

      Since I'm allergic to walnuts and pecans, and most baklava I've been offered has one of the two, I can't confirm or deny that tasting note… but I love it. Cheers!

    I've gone through a dozen bottles of the A'bunadh batches 64/65 in the past year. Just picked up my first bottle of batch #66
    Quite a bit better than just about all of my favorites (Mac12, Glenmorangie Quinta Ruban, Glendronach 15).
    This reminds me of fresh maple syrup growing up in Ohio.

    • @WhiskyRiffs
      @WhiskyRiffs  4 роки тому +1

      Great tasting note. We seem to have similar tastes, since the Glenmorangie Quinta Ruban is a favorite Scotch of mine. Now I have to make sure I try the Glendronach 15. Cheers!

      I’ve never tried a Seagull guitar, but I’m sure they’re great. I used to own an Ovation and then played the Taylor 314ce V-brace guitar and fell in love. There are so many great guitars available theses days.

    I picked this up yesterday (cask 69) and yeah it’s really good. Cherry and chocolate on the nose. Smokey (or is that peat?) on the palate. I’m also tasting more fruit and some orange and it’s sweet and a little cinnamon maybe. Long finish too. Overall I really liked it. Thanks for the recommendation.

    • @WhiskyRiffs
      @WhiskyRiffs  2 роки тому +2

      Excellent! Another A'bunadh fan. There shouldn't be any peat, but Aberlour packs a punch with their ABV. Great notes as well. Cheers!

    I can recomend The Glengoyne Teapot Dram, another "sherrybomb", also The Tamdhu Batch Strength is a great one...and another, Glengoyne Cask Strength...

    • @WhiskyRiffs

      Thanks for the suggestion! I have yet to purchase any Glengoyne bottles and I’m not sure it’s even been in any of my tasting sets. 🤔

      Hi Mark, I am a jazz guitar fan and have toyed with playing jazz a few times over the years. I tend to slip back into my comfort zone of the blues though. Do you play jazz?
