  1. It wasn't all Glenmorangie, there were also a few bottles from their sister distillery, Ardbeg

    - I finally managed to land a Lord of the Isles. That's been a unicorn I was hunting for a while.

    - Seann Chreag 21 year old

    - Traigh Bhan TB/07 (seventh edition) - this was actually from Royal Mile Whiskies and not an auction

    - Smoketrails Napa Valley Edition

    - And a backup bottle of the famous lightly peated Blasda

  3. The auction unpacking continued with Ardbeg.

    The Anthology The Beithir's Tale 15 year, the third in the series.

    The Traigh Bhan 19 year batch 6. Batch 7 has finally popped up in an auction, and I'm stalking it like a Pokemon.

    And Homecoming, a rum-finished Ardbeg normally only available at the distillery or Ardbeg House.

  5. I swung back into Julio's Liquors last week to pick up another couple of bottles they were holding for me.

    The new Ardbeg Dolce is the latest annual Ardbeg Day special release. Finished in ex-Bourbon and Marsala dolce wine casks.

    The Pinhook 10 year rye "Finish Line" is part of the ongoing Loch & Key Whisk(e)y Society vertical series. Each year a parcel of the same rye is bottled, just one year older than the last. The first release was aged 4 years and, despite the name, this isn't the end of the line yet.

  10. Into the daylight. After years in the cool quiet darkness of the bonded warehouse, a cask of what has become Scotch whisky heads off for bottling at Ardbeg Distillery on the Isle of Islay. More pics and info: undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/isl

  15. I'm not really a 'peat head', but I do enjoy peat at times. And my preference tends to be the 'sweet peat' of Ardbeg.

    I picked up the 23 year old Vintage Y2K 'blue' edition, the 25 year old, and the 19 year Traigh Bhan 04 (still looking for 07) - and the new Cask Strength 10, which came from Julio's Liquors

  17. This is the big ticket item that came in last week, the new Drammers Club 19 year Ardbeg Single Cask #5459. Aged entirely in an ex-Oloroso Sherry Butt.

    We took it along on a weekend trip with a couple of friends to Blue - Inn on the Beach on Plum Island this past weekend. It was a perfect dram for sitting by the windows, looking out across the snowy beach at the ocean, and just relaxing.

  19. I recently had several months worth of auction lots shipped, and last night I finally had time to open them. It has, unfortunately, been a crazy couple of months.

    This is the first batch.

    First up are five Ardbeg bottlings - the original 17 year (not the recent re-release), Traigh Bhan release 02, the Twenty One, Twenty Something 22yr, and Twenty Something 23yr.

    A run of nice Single Grain bottlings from Clan Denny - 1997 20yr Invergordon, 1998 25yr Cambus, 1974 35yr North of Scotland, 1975 36yr Cambus, 1965 45yr Dumbarton, 1965 45yr Girvan, 1965 45yr Caledonian, and 1963 48yr Cambus.

    And a 2006 bottling of Compass Box Hedonism. That's one I was missing from the lineup.

  24. CW: Alkohol
    Heute dann "Frau Kolle" vom @kollemate

    Ich hab echt keine Ahnung was"Wintergewürz" ist. Sonderlich zimtig schmeckt es zum Glück nicht. Genau genommen merke ich kaum einen Unterschied zu "normaler" #Kollemate?

    …was auch nur bedeutet dass die Brühe besser als die typische Mate schmeckt? (Imo Platz zwei nach weiter ungeschlagener Flora)

    Der #Ardbeg #Whisky passt nicht perfekt dazu, aber könnte schlimmer sein.

  26. Recent pickups from Julio's Liquors.

    First up, Ardbeg Smokiverse, this year's Fèis Ìle release. This just came in for those who had pre-ordered it, as I had, and will be generally available soon for Ardbeg Day.

    Next up, Pinhook 9 year Straight Rye Whiskey "The Home Stretch. This is part of the Loch & Key Whisk(e)y Society vertical series which sees a new release each year, each one year older than the last. I've been collecting these since it started and I'm planning to wait for it to end, then do a gathering to side-by-side all of them. It will end when it ends - basically whenever another year starts to be too much.

    Then Bully Boy Distillers Straight Bourbon Whiskey "Wickeder Dahk". Another Loch & Key bottling, this is obviously a follow up to the earlier "Wicked Dahk" bottle. (If you're wondering about the spelling, think Boston accent.)

    And finally, Alma del Jaguar Tequila Nocturne. We tried their range at a recent Whisk(e)y Wednesday at Julio's Liquors - the standard Blanco, Reposado, and Anejo, and this one. Their standard line ferments 20% with champagne yeast and 80% with wild yeast, and they were all very good. But Nocturne is 100% wild yeast and I thought it was the best of the lot, and very affordable, so I grabbed one.
