    Alan I missed out on the latest Kilkerran 8 release. So I drowned my sorrows with a dram of this. Now I’m all happy again.

    Great video buddy, when you say "spicy sherry", I immediately think of Glengoyne. Excited to try this one.

    Great review Alan. Your love for this dram is obvious.
    I had the pleasure of sharing one of these with Billy Walker at the GWF. A whisky moment to savour.

    I will pick up my bottle tomorrow, looking forward to taste it. I did a battle last Saturday between batch 5 and 6, and in my taste that night, batch 6 came up on top. But it was real tight.

    I'm with you all the way on this one Alan. That coffee , leather and honey just does job alongside the spice notes. It does it for me big time 👌 A great powerful young whisky 👊

    Just picked up this bottle today, had a dram at the bar before the scotch whisky tour and fell in love with it! Dry, spicy, PX heaven for me. Lovely after taste, it lasts!

    Man! You sure nabbed this one right away. Congrats! Look forward to trying it. I’ve been loving batch 5, which I much prefer to batch 6. Look forward to eventually nabbing a bottle of this as well. Slainte!

      As long as you're drinking and sharing them, my friend, it's all good. I can't tell you how many people I've brought into scotch via batch 5. I like to throw them in the deep end. No boring Glenfiddich or Glenlivet 12s. Toss them into sherried speysiders at cask strength and let them swim their way to victory. I brought it to a wedding and many a lady and groomsman who normally would not drink a whisky were asking for seconds and learning all about Billy Walker. You gotta love the juice!

    Looking forward to this. I've really been enjoying both Batch 5 and Batch 6. For several months there, I was favoring bourbon cask finishes but I've recently swung back to the sherry bombs. Were you able to get your hands on the new Kilkerrans? Looking forward to reviews of those.

    I haven't seen any new batches of Glenallachie in the Chicago area for a few years now. The remaining old bottles have had their prices jacked way up.

    Billy seems to be pushing these out at a more frequent rate than other lines of different distilleries. Not a complaint, as I have enjoyed this whole series, just an observation. Can’t wait to get this one in the U S. Thanks for the rundown on this batch. Cheers All!

  • @welshtoro3256
    @welshtoro3256 2 года назад +2

    I wish I liked it as much as you and others. I think I have Batch 6 (it might be 7) and I just think it's a sherry bomb aged in an overactive casks. It's alright whisky but I think it's too expensive for something which isn't particularly complex. Don't beat me up. Cheers and all the best. WT

      @@thewhiskyfriend Hey big guy, I love me a sherry bomb too. Too bad for me that I love actual sherry more than whisky sherry bombs. I'm also a bit aware of the recent Glenallachie hype which reminds me so much of Springbank, Macallan, Kilikerran, Foursquare, Japanese, etc, etc. It's good whisky (Batch 6) but I have had countless independent sherry bomb bottles that are just as good. They nearly all taste the same these days. Peace
