Brora 25 1981 Duncan Taylor Rare Auld (1400th Scotch Review)

I apologize, I don’t know where I obtained this sample, or from whom. Was it from /u/unclimbability? I have the opportunity to speak to whisky fans with different experiences than my own. In a fun discussion one mentioned he was going to be visiting Brora and doing the tour. To be completely blunt I had not even considered […]

Brora 29 1971 Old Malt Cask Douglas Laing [Feather’s Flight Review Set #18]

Each year I am brought out to The Feathers Pub, Toronto for my birthday. Some years multiple times. This year, just once, and that’s okay by me. Too much of a good thing and that. When selecting a Highland, I have to say that, assuming money is not a concern, my typical question is: What […]

Brora 25 (7th Release)

Thanks to /u/whisky_lads for this sample. I’m not 100% sure this is what it says it is. I’m a creep, tried finding it out. Can’t talk to the guy, he’s gone. I say you he’s gone! So I accept if he comes forward and says this isn’t what it says on the sample. Two months ago […]

Brora 1982 Gordon & MacPhail Connoisseur’s Choice [Feather’s Flight Review Set #17]

Went to The Feathers Pub for my belated birthday. And aimed to have some high end drams before they all went away and the LCBO hunts down anyone who even grows barley. Because that’s probably their next step. Until 1967, the Brora distillery was named Clynelish. Then it changed names, and started making heavily peated […]

Brora 20 1982 Rare Malt

Thanks to /u/xile_ for sharing a dram of this one. Hey, look, it’s my birth year. Last year I decided, through no sense of my own or my finances (especially not my finances) that I’d do some samples of whiskies that were distilled in my birth year. 1982. I know, you’re thinking: I’ve seen /u/TOModera before, […]

Brora 30 Sherry Single Barrel Chieftain’s K&L Exclusive

Very big thanks to /u/Marcovici for this sought after dram. Speaking of which, fucking hell I wish we had K&L Wine Merchants in Ontario. They seem to get some cool shit. And they are wine merchants, so my wife would always be like “Hey, order whisky to go with my wine” and shit. Then we’d have […]

Brora 20 1975 Rare Malts [Feather’s Flight Review Set #13]

My birthdays have become something of a fun legend. And by fun legend, I more so mean everyone coming downtown, all the way, just to watch me do whisky reviews. It’s a tad narcissistic, to say the least. It’s at The Feather’s Pub , so that helps. The foods good. Have the Welsh Rarebit. Maybe just […]
