The Uncorked Podcast: Episode 9 | Dramface Top 40 Update | Ardbeg Shenanigans | Auctions & Feis Ile

Kevin and I are back to discuss a minor Top 40 distillery update and dive into Ardbeg's latest offerings and how they compare to Lagavulin, Port Charlotte and Laphroaig releases. Also, Scotch Whisky Auctions are making it easier for flippers to...well...flip. Is it a big deal?

Enjoyed most of this… I’m a fan of Dramface and it’s fine if their top 40 fascinates you but speaking solely from my perspective, if that interests someone it’s easily accessible on Dramface. But I enjoyed everything else. Cheers 🥃

Great point John!

It would be interesting to hear a podcast about the differences in age statements of OB from popular distilleries. Whether it’s worth it between certain 12 and 15s or 18s etc.

[@WhiskyUncorked]

Great suggestion! I will add it to the list!

Love the Ardbeg, Lagavulin, Port Charlotte and Laphroaig offerings. Sounds like you guys gave a fairly high alcohol intake? I'm big on moderation. Interesting video! I think a lot of people who follow whisky channels may read Dramface as I do so featuring so much of the info here could be left out. Cheers! 🙂

[@WhiskyUncorked]

We certainly are also big on moderation! Once in a great while during our blinds, if things are going well, we may have an extra dram or two but we always make sure to try and drink responsibly. The key is small pours. Can't appreciate what's in the glass if your mind isn't right (not to mention the next morning isn't great either!)

@@WhiskyUncorked Great thoughts!

[@kevinmrn]

Auction sites have been at Feis and other festivals for the last decade, don't know why it pops up now, when most of the bottles sell for less then their original price on secondary.

[@WhiskyUncorked]

Interesting. I have not been there myself. Hopefully one day!

[@kevinmrn]

@@WhiskyUncorked Definitely do so if you can. Even if its not for the festival, Islay is a magical place!
