Tobermory 23 1994 Sansibar The Clans Label

Thanks to throzen for pouring me a dram of this. If you look through my reviews and compare the amount of Ledaig to Tobermory, you should probably find a new hobby because that won’t take long: 42 Ledaig versus 12 Tobermory. I may enjoy the odd subtle whisky, and even the even subtle whisky, but I prefer […]

Ledaigs of many a variety

There’s an awkward thing I bring up around Tobermory/Ledaig and there’s an obvious thing. The awkward thing is due to the “body” or “stinky cheese” or “Brevibacterium” there are a variety of different comments, from the mundane “this is why I don’t like blue cheese” to uncomfortable comments about a variety of sex workers in […]

Tobermory 17 Dun Bheagan

Thanks to /u/ScotchGuy_To for sharing this dram Tobermory. I’ve had ones I like. I’ve had ones I less like. Some might even say I’m not a fan of Tobermory, but a big fan of Ledaig, because I’m a peaty-peathead with my love of peat and all that. But we’re not talking about peat today, so most of […]

Tobermory 23 1995 Maltbarn / Tobermory 12 / Tobermory 10 2008 North Star

Butthole Whisky. If you recognize where that’s from, welcome to the list I’m on. I don’t know if that’s a good thing or bad thing. Tobermory is made in such a way that specific flavours of pungent notes are forefront. For some of us we enjoy these notes in the form of fermented pickles and […]

Tobermory 8 2008 Archives

Thanks to @scotchguy.to for sharing a dram of this with me. Something I’m always looking for is a brash, young, interesting whisky. Usually, that means a full maturation. Usually means something beyond an ex-bourbon cask, something peated, something with an odd mashbill. It doesn’t always mean it will work. And sometimes something else works. So a friend […]

Tobermory 21 1995 Berry Bros. & Rudd

Thanks to /u/Davyj0ne5 for the swap. Talking about Tobermory is like talking about the most toxic relationship I ever was in. You see, as an adult, I no longer can just look at it without nuance. Yes, there was mental abuse. Yes, I lashed out in horrible, misogynistic ways that, while true, also don’t help. No, they […]

Tobermory 21 1995 The Whisky Agency

This year has been interesting and a time of new “firsts” for me. No, I didn’t get drilled in the ass, however thanks for asking. One of the actual things I accomplished is I was part of a group that released their own bottling. And for that, I’m quite proud, even if I played a […]

Tobermory 1994 Montgomerie’s

Thanks to /u/toadpooh for this sample. My history with Tobermory is messy as heck. So time to get my bias out of the way. The first time I reviewed Tobermory, it was part of a meal and was the end of reviewing a lot of whiskies. The second time I did it I did it to […]

Tobermory 15

So… like I need more downvotes with the reviews I’ve been putting up on /r/Wine, however, I think I owe this distillery, and /u/reddbdb to keep reviewing them. Thanks to /u/PACitizen for the sample. For those of you wondering, I’m not a fan of Tobermory 10. You can find each of the reviews of it I have […]

Tobermory 10 [Re-Review]

So I’m currently working on my next multiple review, however I have a couple samples that just can’t be grouped together, no matter how much I think outside the box and attempt to match them like Duplo blocks and the cat. Awhile back, when it was warmer out, I had a Scotch tasting party[1] . […]
