    ‘I am not an alcoholic’..lol…..You have a glencairn glass… how much more can you fill it without loosing the ability to swirl and open up the aromas….10/10 for the review, 11/10 for the humor…..

    Didn't expect an Islay Whisky review from you. Excellent! I am a huge fan for Laphroaig, Ardbeg, Talisker (though not from Islay) and Glendronach (Highlands). But these whiskies do not have a strong local following so I doubt you will get much attention.

      Yeah, the problem of running the channel is i have to guess which will drive traffic and which is just for personal pleasure.. good thing is that all alcohols are my personal pleasure so I have 1 less thing to consider!

    Analysis is very personal, I'll leave here what my feelings were at Bowmore 12 years.
    *Oilyness: Medium body, I didn't find it too oily or dense, but it's not thin either, I thought it had a good oiliness!
    For me, it doesn't need more than that, the oiliness it presents is cool.
    *Visual: although I use dye, I found the color beautiful!!!
    *On the nose: almost imperceptible alcohol, the first note I felt was the vegetable/organic of the peat, for me it reminds me a lot of manure (it's enough to be funny, but for those who are familiar with these characteristics of some whiskeys, I don't think it's bad :D) , then came the very faint smokey/smoky smell, and that of wood (oak). I found the scent to be very smooth and balanced. I didn't find it so sweet!!! These days I went to taste it again and the smell of bourbon was very evident (from the ex bourbon barrels), but I am no longer able to find that aroma, I need to concentrate more in the next tastings.
    With water or ice it enhances the smell of oak (like most whiskeys), the peat vegetable disappears and the smoky/smoked appears a lot more, and it gets a little sweeter..
    I didn't find it fruity, but slightly citric.
    *Palate: Pure, the first note for me was the vegetable/organic of the peat, then a burnt taste (oak roast), even giving the sensation of burnt wood in the mouth, then comes the light smoky/smoked and finally a bitter reminiscent of dark chocolate.
    With ice or water it is a little simpler, it enhances the oak (like most whiskeys), the peat vegetable disappears and the smoky/smoked appears much more, but it ends with an even stronger sensation of the Oak roast (taste burnt), and finally a slight bitterness.
    *Summary: Very easy and tasty whiskey to drink neat, it is also very pleasant with ice!!!! I didn't find it sweet, and for those who don't like the peat vegetable, add water or ice, because with it pure the flavor of this vegetable stands out!!
    It's a very simple whiskey, for me it's not worth the price! I don't know if I would buy again, unless it's a mega sale of stock burning!!!

    Sir Monday i drink two 500ml blank beer it's give me a good buzz but yesterday i drink four 330ml tiger but it's didn't give me any buzz or tipsy feeling. Why sir?

    • @sgalcoholguy
      @sgalcoholguy  Рік тому +1

      Hey, i’m not too familiar with blank beer, i’m guessing Blanc?
      But there are a few factors like alcohol content of the beer, amount of fizziness (carbonation) in the beer, how fast you drink, and even the meal size you had before drinking!
