Great to see Arran's The Bodega Sherry Cask make the list. Agreed not as heavily sherried as the others but the balance is so good, it's just a fantastic scotch with the right amount of sherry. A very heavy sherry bomb but from an IB is the 13 year Strathmill CS from Signatory!! Outta this world!

My favorite Sherry Bomb whisky is the Aberlour A'bunadh, but I've actually been grabbing my bottle of Tamdhu Batch 5 a lot lately. My newest sherry-bomb favorite is the Kilchoman Loch Gorm 2021. The Kavalan Solist expressions haven't wowed me for the price. I've only tried their Port and Ex-Bourbon casks, but I'm not shelling out the cash for their Sherry version at this point. Another great video, Phil. Cheers!

Thanks, Kevin! Yeah, I haven't loved the Kavalan whiskies - especially at the price point they are asking. Big fan of Tamdhu Batch 5. Loch Gorm is also an excellent choice; they know how to blend the sherry and smoky notes without either flavour dominating.

Edradour 12 CS is excellent sherry bomb but it has a distinctive “dirty” character so it may not please some of the public. It has that weird machine oil notes mixed with heavily cooked plums made into a jam. One of the best whiskies I ever had, I regret not getting a second bottle as it’s completely sold out atm. If anyone come across a bottle - do not hesitate, it’s a treasure. edit: I’m referring to the one bottled in ibisco decanter, it was single cask as well.

Loch Gorum is one of my very favorite single malts and it is impressive that Kilchoman as a young distillery is putting out product to rival Lagavulin and Ardbeg. Great video, Phil. I have yet to get my hands on the Tamdhu but I'll keep trying to get it. I'm sure I will like it.

for me to be honest, to rival ardbeg atm is not really a challange since their newer cask managment of selling the standing in the corner casks that dont hit the quality mark, (but then want the same or more money as before) is a sad choice.

Very nice Video. I like sherry whiskies. I just had a dram of an independent bottler that would be on the fare right top corner of your diagram. It’s the most heavily sherried that I had so fare. It’s the “Blossoming Auld Sherried Michel Couvreur”. It’s not my favorite, but it’s so special… A really interesting Dram. One of my favourite wherry whisky is :”Blair Athol 2006 14 Year Old Adelphi RAF Benevolent Fund” (alredy my second bottle 😛). I agree that the Arran Sherry Cask and Aberlour A`bunadh are solid whiskies.

Despite owning two Glengoyne Cask Strengths (Batch 8 and 10) I did not know that it was a sherry bomb. As for the Glenfarclas 105 I am saddened to hear about it being erratic but despite that I went for it when it went on sale the other day for half the price of the A'bunadh ($73 Canadian). Now I hear that the A'bunadh is not like it used to be though I am lucky enough to own a bottle of batch 47 or 49 (I can't remember).

If you want an extreme sherry bomb, there's Teerenpeli Kaski, aged for it's entire life exclusively in an ex-Pedro Ximenez casks, it's just mind-blowing. Even tho it's not a cask strength, you won't be disappointed. Not a big fan of Oloroso sherry, so 105, Glendronach batch 9, Tomatin Sherry CS didn't do much for me. With only exception Kavalan Solist. Anything I tried from them, even very basics, blew my mind away. IMHO Scotland could learn some tips from them on how to make awesome whiskey ))) Apart from Islay, these guys are doing great! ))

My favorite is Macallan 18, distilled in 1972, bottled in 1990. The old Macallan bottlings are the quintessential Sherry Bombs. One could argue that Macallan led the Sherry Bomb wave from back in the 80’s & 90’s. Today, Macallan has gotten full of itself. Their casks aren’t what they were back in the 20th century. And the price points today are simply obscene. I was surprised that no mention of Macallan appeared in the video review or in the threads I’ve seen. In the mid-1980s there was no equal to this venerable old Speyside Distillery.

I have the Glendronach Batch 7... trust me, it's bad. Not a good way to start Rachel Barrie. Young, sharp, tannins galore. On the other hand I've tried the GlenAllachie Batch 6 and Aberlour A'bunadh Batch 69, but scrumptious. Glengoyne Batch 008 isn't bad either. And the Kavalan Solist is also excellent. Still to try, Glenfarclas 105 and Arran Sherry Cask. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦

Great video! I did really enjoy whatching it. However I am very disappointed with quality of every single one from 1 to 5. They are all extremely sour and metalic in taste. Unfortunately whisky industry goes for quantity not quality. Tamdhu is quite palpable though. Kilchoman Loch Gorm Edradour Ibisco decanters is oversherried whisky if you're into aggressive tannin, varnish and nail polish - go for it. Glenallachie 10 has changed the recipe it has quite a lot of virgin casks and Rioja wine cask, acidic, peppery and only gets drinkable with a dollop of water, so nope not sherry bomb for me. In terms of availability all of the whiskies you've mentioned are widely available, true, but I'd better be looking for something less accessible and definitely better quality whiskies. Morrison's Old Perth for example great blended malt with a high percentage of Glenfarclas, definitely better thought out recipe than 105, where it seems to me the last batches were filled without a greater concern of a quality. Some of Glenfarclas Family Casks show great value for money, and I'd look into Gordon & MacPhail Connoisseur Choice series, they may get quite hefty for a wallet but boy it's worth its price. Some Glenglassaugh show of great sherried whiskies, as well as some GlenAllachie Single Casks. Quality over Quantity, the words to live by! Slainthe !

Shame you don't have the Edradour 12 as for me that is the ultimate (currently available) cask strength sherry bomb. Otherwise the 10 at 46% is a no brainer. The Abunadh sems to be less sherry with every new batch, but was amazing and is still great value. Otherwise I have a few older Glen Dronach 18s stashed, those are pure nectar. Must remind myself of the Arran Sherry, been a while since I had one.

Kavalan makes some fantastic whisky in general, but their sherry cask whiskies are especially great. In ascending order of pricing: Triple Sherry Cask, Oloroso Sherry, Solist Oloroso Single Cask Strength, Solist Amontillado Single Cask Strength, Solist Manzanilla Single Cask Strength, Solist PX Single Cask Strength, & Solist Moscatel Single Cask Strength. I hear prices are pretty crazy around the world for many of these, but here in Taiwan they're quite affordable. For the quality level, the Triple Sherry & basic Oloroso Sherry are pretty inexpensive everywhere. My favorite is the Solist Oloroso Single Cask Strength. All are pretty huge sherry bombs.

I cant see my favourite Glen Scotia Sherry Double Cask Finish LE... But Tamdhu (may be) a little bit better, I agree! ;)

The Arbelour Cask Anagh is also quite good when I can't get the Abundah.

Edradour Caledonia! probably the most Taste-per-£ I've had in my mouth for a long time. By far. If you haven't tasted yet you simply have to.

I live in Taiwan and their entry level bottles are quite affordable for the quality. Their rarer high end Solist bottles can be pricey, but based on quality I think they're pretty reasonable here if you know where to shop. Their prices are insane around the world though.

No mentions of kilkerran 8? I know it's a batch release but so is Aberlour abundah to be fair. I habe never met someone who has tried the Kk8 and prefers another sherry bomb over it. Granted its become very hard to find recently but its so refined and probably the best 8 Year old whisky ever

Best sherry bomb is Kilkerran 8yo sherry cask (any batch). Hard to buy, but worth every minute of searching and every cent of price.

I enjoyed that Phil, the Loch gorm i got into after the 5 drams for different occasions vid. The 105 can be hit and miss so I go to the 15 yr old. Of late done the Glenallachie 10 cask strength, Glengoyne c/s, Bunnahabhain 12 c/s, but when Christmas calls what beats a Glendronach 15. ( had both and love both ).

Bowmore 17/18 heavy on the sherry and light on the smoke, especially for an Islay. Used to be very affordable for the age statement, but it's over 100 USD nowadays in the States.

Great video mate - this is the first video of yours I've seen so I've subscribed. I would reallly like a copy of that diagram you showed about the flavour profiles of different whiskies - is there any chance I could have one? Even for a price mate?
