    This is a great one. It along with it's brother the Quarter cask Bothy are bookends to have on the shelf. Took me forever to get the 10 because I kept buying those two 😆. Cheers Al

    Available in Celtic Whiskey Shop at the moment. Just treated myself to an Arran 18, A Bothy, A Bodega and a couple of 10s. My Christmas is well and truly sorted. This is brilliant whisky at sensible money. I really hope it lasts.

    Big Al, great to see you back and reviewing a fantastic bottle!! I gotta get another but never see around town so will have to order by way of Europe. Of the 4 different Arrans I have, the Bodega is my favorite. As you say, tons of well integrated flavors. CHEERS!!

    Agree with another comment, this has replaced the A'bunadh on my shelf. Not that I don't enjoy Aberlour, just that this has such a big dark sherry nose, with a rich palate for almost half the price out here. Thanks for sharing, enjoy the weekend!

    • @WhiskeyStraightAl
      @WhiskeyStraightAl  3 года назад +1

      I only had a few samples of the A'bunadh, and as much I enjoyed it, I'd still take this over it as well. A great whisky at a great price for what you're getting. Cheers Jon and have a great weekend too.

    I'm new to scotch whisky. My first dram about three weeks ago was a Talisker 10 - not a fan. After doing lots of research, purchased a (unpeated) Bunnahabhain 10 to go under the tree. Then my daughters boyfriend brought me drams of Laphroaig 10 and Aberlour 10 - both excellent, but very different - loved em both. Tonight I went out an bought two more. Gonna be broke. Bought the Bruichladdich the Classic Laddie in its glorious blue sea bottle, and this .. The Arran Sherry Cask The Bodega.. I was thinking I was purchasing the the Arran 10, but got it home and saw it was The Bodega. Do I bring it back? The Arran 10 is not available. Sounds like a dam good whisky. Might be perfect for over Christmas. Looking for any feedback. Cheers!

    • @WhiskeyStraightAl
      @WhiskeyStraightAl  2 года назад +1

      The Talisker 10 takes time to get used too. Ir was the same for me, now I really enjoy it. Interestingly, like you, the Laphroaig 10 hit the spot for me right away. Aberlour is a real easy drinker across the range & the Bunnahabhain 12 is majestic. Definitely one to check out. Arran 10 is great if you can get it - this Bodega is even better. All the best in your Scotch journey Steve & keep me informed. Cheers🥃
