Singleton of Glendullan 19 2021 Special Release

This is my continuing review series of 2021 Special Releases from Diageo. I’m looking back at what I drink, what I think, and how things have changed. What a great idea then to immediately go to a distillery I barely have any experience with! I’m so good at this. So Singleton of Glendullan 19 2021 Special […]

Parker’s Heritage Collection 10th Edition & 5th Edition

I thank whomever poured these for me, and I apologize I can’t find your online username. My father is a bourbon fan. As such, when I visit him, I like to pick out samples. He has his with ice, as he likes bourbon and ice, and I have mine neat, with some water part way […]

Eddu Grey Rock & Eddu Silver Brocéliande

Bruichladdich Port Charlotte Triple Review – The OBs

Thanks to /u/throzen and /u/scotchable for these drams. This last year I’ve done the unthinkable: I made a 31 part multi review. I ended up learning a lot about my own reviews from writing and drinking that. For one, there is such thing as too much of a good thing. As well, I should split up my multi reviews […]
