Wade's Top Five RARE Whiskies of the Year 2023

[@whiskeyisajourney]

Every one of those bottles sound fantastic. I will be on the hunt for the Springbank Local Barley in 2024. I will probably try and find it at a whisky bar and not buy the bottle and I had a feeling the Laphroaig 25 was going to be in the list somewhere. Nice! Happy New Year Wade.

Was a very good year indeed! Happy New Year Peter!

Great choices to look out for, and I'm very anxious to try (no spoilers ...) the one featuring local barley, after whisky terroir came up on the channel recently.

[@McIntyresMalts]

After trying various local barley expressions and experiencing regional peat I am convinced that terroir influence in whisky is absolutely a thing and I find it odd that people argue it isn't. Will check out your video on it too Tim, thanks mate!

[@thewhiskyenthusiast]

Those local barleys are just delicious! I have never tasted a Ben Nevis I think, I need to rectify that. Cheers brother!

[@McIntyresMalts]

I definitely keep my eye out for IB Ben Nevis now that is for sure!

[@thewhiskyscribe]

Nice list mate, definitely rare drams as I haven’t had a chance to try any of these.

[@McIntyresMalts]

They definitely impressed me big time mate, if you have a similar palate to mine you will like them. Hope you and the family are well!

Shouldn't have watched this!? Now my mouth is watering because of the Glendronach 19yo Madeira Cask Finish 🤤🤤🤤 Then I saw the price range and started to cry 😭😭😭 Maybe I'll have the opportunity to get a little dram or a sample one lucky day 🤔🤷🏼‍♂️
