Glenmorangies and Westports

Thanks to /u/smoked_herring & /u/devoz for the samples. An old joke or riddle was “When is a Martini not a Martini?” and the answer being “A Gimlet”. I imagine if you’re over the age of 70 you are smirking at this time. I assume. I don’t really find it funny or that ubiquitous. I found it in an old […]

Glenmorangie Bacalta

Thanks to /u/ScotchChick for pouring me a sample of this dram. I’ll be honest, as I typically am: For a few years, I skipped over the Glenmorangie special releases. Yes, I’ve reviewed a few of them. Like today’s, Glenmorangie Bacalta, not around the time they came out. Why? Well, there’re a few reasons. The first is the easiest: […]

Glenmorangie Spios

I’d like to thank Glenmorangie for pouring this sample for me. I want to be up front, I was given lunch and this dram as well as other cocktails and a really good coffee as part of the event. The below opinions are my own. Casks as an interesting aspect of whisky making. In American […]

Glenmorangie Tusail [Pub L’Isle Noire Flight Review Set #2]

Went back to L’Île Noire Pub because I was in Montreal and it’s a great pub and they have a ton of whisky and gin. Great place, good prices, good staff. But why choose a Highland whisky? I mean, it’s not a bad region, per say. It’s just not usually my thing. My jive […]

Glenmorangie Cluster Fuck Reviews [Companta, 18, Signet, Quinta Ruban, Lasanta, Astar]

Thanks to /u/devoz, /u/lasidar, /u/scotch_fanatic, and /u/allumina for samples. And me for buying others. Me is pretty great. Can’t name things though. So based on some of my last multi-reviews, I can’t call this a vertical. It’s vertical-ish, but not really a vertical. Also isn’t a horizontal either. Diagnonal sounds dumb. No, this is a Cluster […]

Glenmorangie 21 1981/2002 Sauternes Finish [Feather’s Flight Review Set #8]

Is it bender time again? No it isn’t. Silly person. I’m not going out to the UK for at least a few months. So it’s not bender time. It’s my Birthday time! And all I ever ask for is to go out to The Feathers Pub and have drams. This year I asked for recommendations, and […]

Glenmorangie Quinta Ruban

Special thanks to /u/EMoneySC2 for the excellent swap we did 3 months ago. This drams for you (as you supplied me with it). Went up north this past weekend, and was surrounded by a group of people all enjoying whisky (and rum, but that’s another subreddit). Specifically whiskies I brought to share. Because seriously, sharing whisky […]

Glenmorangie Nectar D’Or

It’s back to Basics time!… Well, not really, it’s back to next level time? Whatever, it’s time to review one of the staples, all so that I can feel like I should be writing these reviews, not just.. I don’t know, some guy who drinks quite a bit. This week we have Glenmorangie Nectar D’Or. […]

Mystery Exchange Reviews [Glenlivet 18, Johnnie Walker Green Label, Glenmorangie 18, Balvenie 17 Peated Cask, Glenfarclas 21]

So as most people know by now, I kinda went on a bender on my vacation to the UK. 50 whisky samples in 15 days was both awesome and completely stupid, as I’m on medication where I’m not really supposed to have more than 4 oz. of hard liquor per week. None the less, I […]

Glenmorangie Ealanta Private Edition

I’m kinda speechless, for once. Review #70. This really blows me away. It seems like yesterday that I started posting. Though I better move on, otherwise I’m in the high grass of Nostalgia. I decided that I needed to do something special for my 70th Scotch review. Awhile ago /u/dustlesswalnut did me a solid and made […]
