Read More Whiskies I’ll Never Own #3 – Highland Park 21Deanston 10 PX Finish – 57.5% ABV – $79.95 (LCBO) Ok, I’ll up be up front with this one… It’s probably not going to be to everyone’s taste, but it’s definitely in the wheelhouse of my palate.

Colour: Pale Straw Nose: Like a Hawaiian vacation in a glass… Heavy tropical fruits. Citrus, pineapple and banana immediately. Light vanilla and oakiness follow underneath. Palate: Sweet, but not dessert-malt level. The tropical fruit is still predominant, but […]

Read More Whisky Musings #3 – Oban 14 Year OldI posted a written version of the Oban review over at reddit.com/r/scotch, and I thought I would post it up here as well, cuz… why not? Oban is a town and distillery I had the opportunity to visit, and I found that the town and the spirit had a remarkably similar quality. Like the malt, […]
