Wow what a fantastic overview - I pair a Scotch or Rye with a cigar on Saturday - was shopping with my wife and tried this (bought a bottle for tomorrows cigar) and agree with your assessment entirely. Beautifully done, I love your tasting style and approach!

That's it, I'm doing it this year! Fun part will be selecting the whisky. I have a Canadian peated from Macaloney's on the west coast, which might be perfect. It's pretty tasty stuff...😋 Happy Yuletide you two! 🥃 Marian 🇨🇦

I really struggle with these celebrity whisk(e)ys, and other various types of liquor or wines. So much of the selling point is tied into touting some famous name or other so they can charge premium prices for the product. Generally, I tend to avoid them. That being said, a couple of the Gretzky (CDN hockey player) whisky releases have been pretty good. This Sir Davis is not currently available in Canada at this time. Lots happening in the background at the allotment today! Cheers Matt 🥃😁🥃 Marian 🇨🇦

Gelnmorangie was probably my first portal into 'proper' whisky too. A pity the lovely golden yellow colour isn't natural. But what would have been an even gutsier re-invention of the 'classic' would be to put it in an original style bottle and play on their envious heritage branding, rather than persisting with the hideous poncy packaging that assaults my eyes. Oh, a little higher ABV would be a result too. Currently £29 on Amazon, so I'm still going to buy a bottle.

What an achievement for Robert...50 years, still going strong. If I'd known then what I know now, this is an industry I would have loved to have worked in. I hope you had a chance to taste that wonderful (I'm sure) release. I have the 16, picked up years ago in Bermuda. It's a nice clean dram, and I enjoy it. We rarely see the brand here, unfortunately. I knew Tomintoul's location was a factor in determining the final product. We have a group in western Canada (Bearface) that elementally ages their casks in extreme weather conditions. It definitely affects the whisky in interesting ways. Thank you Matt, as always, for an enlightening interview with yet another legend! Cheers...☕☕ (9am here) Marian 🇨🇦
