Amongst all Whiskybloggers you are the number ONE for me. Useful and quite clearly, always interesting stuff, good voice and instructive even for nerds. Go on🥃🥃🥃👍👍 and best greetings from an Bavarian.
Great list and great review as always MA.
Thank you 🤗
I would heartily recommend the Glen Scotia Campbeltown Harbour. As a cask strength aficionado, for me, this expression ticks all the wrong boxes; NAS, 40%, chill filtered, with added coloring. And yet, I love it, and at around 25€, it’s an amazing deal.
haha that's all the things I've been trying to run away from!
Fantastic list buddy! That Glencadam is so worth the price, will be eyeing up your #5! Seems a steal! Cheers.
Cheers my brother!
I love the knockando 18. I made a bottle disappear in record time some time ago. Thanks for reminding me I need to source a new one asap! Slainte!🥃
Glad to be of service
Good list video, yes Glencadam 10 is excellent but the 15 is even better.
Agreed!
Great list once again! I hunted down a bottle of that Paul John Oloroso after your glamorous review of it. Now that Knockandoo 18 sounds interesting too 🤔 Will you be reviewing it anytime soon?
I will be definitely reviewing that soon
I agree Paul John makes fantastic whisky. It stands out from other single malts. I like the Classic Select Cask. If you have an opportunity, do try it.
I have actually!
Come on man lets keep Glencadam underrated ;-) My two under the radar Tobermory 12yr and Arran quarter cask.
Great stuff fun as always 🙂
haha Agree on the Tobermory but I think Arran is getting a fair bit of mileage of late.
glencadam 10 is my favorite drum. the taste is just so delicate, tasty, and so unusual and outstanding at the same time, i never tasted anything even remotely close to it, including their older expressions
Agreed 100%
Great review. Glencadam and Paul John have been on the short list, but will add Knockando now.
One of the best malts I've ever had was a Teeling single carcavelos cask (not brabazon series). One of the worst was a Teeling 17 year white wine finish cut so deep into the feints it finished with mushrooms. It was bad enough that it would take a lot to convince me to buy another Teeling.
Yup, there are some Teelings that miss the mark. However, this was the first one I tried and really liked it.
@@MaltActivist the single grain admittedly is one of their best core products. I was lucky enough to find a 5 year age stated bottling from 2015 last year, since age statements have been dropping like flies in the industry
The first time I tasted teeling was in Scotland at distillery tour. It was very nice, but still I prefere scotch. Btw where is glen garioch ? That is my top under rated whisky 🥃. Nice video, much appreciated 👍😁...
I've actually not drunk that much Glen Garioch to offer an opinion.
+1 for the Teeling! Best in their range, imo
I agree
You were so close with the Loch Lomond, you held the right answer in your hands, you showed it to camera and then you recommended the wrong one! The 12 inchmoan is the best 46% peated release ever! It's octomore levels of peat complexity (not punchiness but the number of different peat based notes you can find) I would love to try it cask strength, it's why I'm keeping an eye out for IBs of Croftengea, their heavily peated malt
Wow! Ok maybe I need to do a side by side comparison and see.
I look forward to seeing the video
And their Inchfad is even better!
Does Loch Lomond have the same parent company as Glen Scotia?
Yup, Glen Scotia owned by the Loch Lomond Group
Teeling Rum Cask kicks some ass.
Ah! I haven't tried that I don't think
The Single Grain and the Rum Cask are my 2 favorites from Teeling. But I didn’t really like their Single Malt (weird taste imo).
I really want to try the Glencadam 10 at some point, hearing so much about it. It should make excellent company to my Arran 10 to help scratch that ex-bourbon itch.
Let me know when you get your hands on it
@@MaltActivist Forgot to come back. I got a 1 liter bottle a few months ago which is half way done. Neck pour felt too harsh on the alcohol at first but as the bottle got some air and I started to understand this whisky and its flavors, I fell in love with it. It's my only whisky I wanna go to if it's too hot where I live (Brazil) during the summer... It's citrusy, refreshing and bright. May try the 15 at some point. Cheers!
@@canal-do-guga-namura Hey man! So happy you like it. Enjoy.
4-5 years maturation in India will be anywhere 13-15 years in Scotland because faster maturation! You should try the Paul John Kanya and Mithuna! They are also fantastic! And their core range of brilliance, bold and edited is also wonderful!
I've tried the entire Paul John range and it's very good.
I believe (cf. Ralfy vids, and elsewhere) that Knockando's last syllable rhymes with "dough", not "doo" as you seem to be saying (google says "no-KAN-dow", but I don't think that means it's "ow" like the beginning of ouch). In part it's important to help distinguish from the nearby Knockdhu ("Nok-doo") distillery, whose whiskies are named anCnoc ("ah-NOCK") to further help distinguish.
Sorry if I sound like the pronunciation police, it's just the two nearby distilleries can be confused.
Will keep that in mind. Cheers.
Glencadam recently installed 19th century water wheel model in their distillary
oh wow really?
Lip smaking £35? Im in!! :)
I know right!
The Paul John, and Indian Whisky in general matures faster- the Oloroso bottling how old does it drink to you?
Drinks quite old actually. Maybe even double digits.
Slow maturation could mean used barrels. Not first fill super active barrels. Aging and maturing are two different things
You're right! I should have thought of that.
How long does Whisky last once opened?
If kept properly then over 20 years
Teeling is a Trademark that produces a very big amount of diffent Whiskys. A very few are quite nice but others are unfortunately not made for us Whisky-Nerds. Be careful with them. Thats all i say 😅🤷
Loch Lomond is a very unique Distillery because it has Pot Stills and Coffey Stills and a Kind of Hybrid Still called Lomond Still (because nobody else have a Still like that accept Bruichladdich which bought an old Lomond Still from Loch Lomond some Years ago). With these Stills they can produce a big variety of Whiskys depending on their Mash-Bill (which Grain , which amount of Peat in that Grain or Malted Barley) . These Varietys have different Names like Inchmurrin, Inchmoan, Inchfad, Loch Lomond and Croftengea for Example.
Thats where the Names come from.
😉
(I write that because you didnt show any Knowledge about this in the Video)
Thanks again for another good Video.
Greetings from Germany 😎🤘
Thank you! That's really interesting to know. I'll look up this info.
Just so you know: Ugly Betty was the original Lomond still invented in 1956 and installed at the Inverleven Distillery within the Dumbarton grain complex at least 6 years before Loch Lomond Distillery existed (there were also Lomond stills at Glenburgie and Miltonduff) and the 'new kids on the block' have rather cheekily sometimes referred to their own hybrid stills as if they were the originals...
Paul John has increased price of oloroso by 12.5 % recently .
Really? That's tough.
It costs 115 £ for 750 ml in Mumbai
There are 3 Loch Lomond 12. You forgot the “middle” one. Loch Lomond 12. That is the best one.
I didn't forget - I just didn't have it on me actually.
I'd love to try both inchmurrin and inchmoan. Haven't seen them in my market sadly.
Wild Turkey Rare Breed!
Yup!
Teeling should remain underrated. No idea why you included it. It is really underwhelming.
Is Teeling still Cooley juice?
@@billmonteith1161 No, they have their own distillery in Dublin since 2015.
I actually quite like this one!
@@MaltActivistdifferent folks different strokes😊
I have a bottle of regular (not Inchmurrin or Inchmoan) Loch Lomond 12 y.o. that I’ve been trying to oxidize for over a year and it still tastes and smells like burnt sugar. Not caramel, not toffee but straight up very unpleasant burnt sugar. I paid $45 US for it and it came as a gift package with 2 minis attached - one mini NAS Inchmurrin and the other mini NAS Inchmoan. I did like the Inchmoan. But the whole thing is not worth even the $45 IMO.
I once bought a mini bottle of Teeling single grain and couldn’t get over the acetone taste and smell.
Glencadam 10 year old is best value on the market if you can find it!!! One of the best single malts at this moment in time really, imo. It’s in liquor stores in New Hampshire and Vermont right now for about $50 for anyone who’s looking nearby. Just don’t buy all of them, leave some for me :).
I haven’t had a chance to taste Paul John. I did taste Amrut and it was a great malt! I know they are not from the same area in India, but that’s my only experience with Indian whiskies. I’ll have to be on the look out for Paul John.
I don’t think I’ve seen any Knockando expressions here in the US. But I do trust you on this one :) Another one to be on the look out for!
I guess we disagree on the first 2 but in agreement for the rest of them :).
Maybe you got a bad batch with the first two? I quite like em actually. See if you can get your hands on the Paul John Oloroso. Sublime.
