Another interesting finishing experiment from Alistair Walker! This 37-year-old Invergordon single grain whisky has spent the last almost four years maturing in a cask that previously held an American rye whisky. It's certainly intriguing! ( 44.5% ABV)
People who have already tasted this Glentauchers describe it as a rich, delicate, and elegant dram. The single malt whisky was bottled in 2023 by Chorlton Whisky after maturing for at least 26 years in a bourbon cask. (bottled at 51.5% cask strength)
We've received new bottlings from Cadenhead's Original Collection, and this Craigellachie is one of them. This single malt whisky from the Speyside distillery, which has been in business for over 130 years, matured for 18 years in Oloroso casks. (46% ABV)
A very pleasantly drinkable, sweet and fruity Linkwood, that is how you can briefly describe this single malt whisky bottled by Archives in 2021. The Speysider, released in the famous Fishes of Samoa series, matured for 13 years in a bourbon cask. (56.3%)
Okay, from which of the 50 or so Speyside distilleries does this single malt whisky come? No idea. We do know that this malt aged for no less than 28 years in a bourbon cask, which means that the ABV percentage is almost at the critical limit: 40.1%!
The Alistair Walker Company has a knack for finishing whisky. This is evident once again with this Infrequent Flyers bottling, a 10-year-old Glenglassaugh single malt whisky finished in a Sauternes cask and bottled at 58.6% cask strength.
This is a great opportunity to taste the single malt whisky from the Caperdonich Distillery, which closed in 2002. This bottle is part of the 2008 Chairman's Stock bottling from Cadenhead. The Speysider matured for 27 years in a bourbon cask. (56.8%)
With their series Butterflies from the USA, Archives bottles whisky specifically for the American market. In this case, it concerns an American whisky released in 2018, a bourbon from Heaven Hill. The 9-year-old whisky is bottled at no less than 69.1%!
The Enigma bottlings from Cadenhead, as the name suggests, do not mention the distillery. With this edition, we have to make do with the knowledge that it is an 11-year-old, oloroso-matured Lowland single malt whisky at 57.5% ABV. For a nice price!
After almost two and a half centuries of activity in the Lowlands, the Littlemill Distillery closed its doors in 1996. And some twenty years after that closure, Cadenhead released a 24-year-old, bourbon-matured bottling of the single malt whisky. (52.2%)
The colour of this whisky reveals that it has been finished in a Pedro Ximénez cask. The Dailuaine single malt whisky bottled by Alistair Walker also has clear PX characteristics in the nose and taste, such as dark chocolate and raisins. (16y, 54.4%)
An exemplary 'Laddie', is how tasters describe this 12-year-old Bruichladdich single malt whisky, bottled in 2018 by Archives in the Fishes of Samoa series. The Islay malt matured in an ex-bourbon cask and is bottled at a cask strength of 52.5%.
Don't be put off by the nasty monster on the label! For this Peat Monster, Compass Box brought together a range of peated, bourbon-matured malt whiskies, from those with a sweet smoke to those with heavy peat tones. A blended malt for a great price! (46%)
Of the 10 years that this Aultmore single malt whisky matured, the last three and a half were in a Pedro Ximénez cask. You can tell from the colour alone! Alistair Walker bottled the Speysider at 55.4% cask strength under the Infrequent Flyers brand.
All of the Springbank single malt whiskies bottled by Archives got high scores. This is also the case for this 2016 bottling of a Springbank that matured for 17 years in a sherry hogshead. 239 bottles came from that cask, at 50.3% cask strength.
In 1996, Lowlands distillery Littlemill closed its doors after some two and a half centuries. Six years earlier, the spirit for this Cadenhead bottling went into the cask to emerge 24 years later as a single malt whisky of excellent quality. (53.7%)
In 2017, Cadenhead's Authentic Collection released a bottling of a 26-year-old Bladnoch single malt whisky. This malt from the 'Queen of the Lowlands' aged in a bourbon cask and is bottled at 49%. An oily, buttery dram with lots of fruit, honey and nuts.
This bottle dates back to the time when 'single malt' was called 'pure malt', and when Cadenhead still bottled in dumpy bottles. The bottle contains a 16-year-old Benromach single malt whisky, at the time intended for the Italian market. (45.7%, 75cl)
In 2021, Archives bottled this blend of Scotch malt whiskies for the American market (in 750ml bottles, of course). The whisky matured for 20 years in a sherry cask from which it was bottled at 44.6% cask strength. Red fruits, chocolate, tobacco, spices.

You don't often come across a blended grain whisky. And certainly not one like this Hedonism from Compass Box. The three grains Cameronbridge, Girvan and Port Dundas together form a creamy, soft blend, very pleasant to drink. (43%)
Orkney is not a whisky brand. If a bottler releases an edition with 'Orkney' in the name, it will be Highland Park single malt whisky from the distillery of the same name in the Orkneys. So this is a 16-year-old, bourbon cask-matured HP whisky. (54%)
