    Finally opened the Bunnahabhain 12 yr CS; I now understand your enthusiasm. It is so smooth; my thinking was with an abv of 56.6% I was going to get a really big alcohol kick like some other high abv whiskey's I've tried; not so. What an enjoyable dram; I have experimented with adding water (drop by drop) to see if it enhances the experience. While certainly changing the flavor/experience, I must say that for me I prefer it neat!! Alan, thank you again for introducing me to a wonderful experience.

      Fantastic...glad you got to try it...Next piece of advice...buy another because your gonna go through that bottle so fast my friend....

    Many thanks for the review; decided to try two of your recommendations based on the enthusiasm. Had to order from Edinburgh, so with shipping to the US they were a wee bit expensive. But after opening the Thompson Bros., no regrets; what a treat. If I had deep pockets, I'd certainly order six more for backup. Have not yet opened the Bunnahabhain, I already have the standard 12 year and really enjoy it, so certainly looking forward to the 12 year cask strength. Will let you know. Fortunately for me, I was able to get the Speyburn 15yr locally, also enjoyable. Again, thanks for your reviews - keep it up!!

    Great list Alan. I absolutely agree on the Bunna 12. I recently got a back up bottle. Speyburn 15 is on my bar as well.

    The Bunna 12 is fantastic my joint whisky of the year with Glen Scotia festival edition 2022. I got a couple of shouts for you. Kilchoman Sanaig, my fav whisky I’ve tried this year. Also the value end of Glen Scotia are worth a shout too Alan. And Campbeltown Loch.

    In Sweden, in addition to the Kilkerran 12, Bunnahabhain 12, Ledaig 10 etc that you mentioned I would add Craigellachie 13, Deanston 15 organic, Loch Lomond 15, Kilchoman Sanaig, Arran sherry cask and the Port Charlotte 10 heavily peated. The PC 10 is a bit more expensive but worth it imo.

  • @alangray6961

    Its funny, as my last Master of Malt order was for 2 of their own bottlings and Thompson Brothers blended malt. Three very nice drams, and excellent value. One MoM bottling was their 13yo grain whisky, whilst the other was an 11yo Linkwood.

    • @thewhiskyfriend
      @thewhiskyfriend  Год назад +1

      All fantastic bottles sir I almost I clouded the linkwood 11...think I mentioned it on the video.... But wanted to keep the video to 5 bottle... All great whiskies... Cheers for dropping by my friend...

  • @thewhiskyenthusiast
    @thewhiskyenthusiast Год назад +1

    Awesome list Alan, brilliant addind the IB s there as most people would skip them in these lists and stick to the distillery versions but those MoM s sound great!
    Deanston 10 Bordeaux for is a fantastic bang for buck but only if you get it from the airports as at duty free they go fo 37£ where as in the market it's around 65! Cheers my friend, great video once again 🥃

    My favorite liquor store had a sale on the Speyburn 15 at $40 a bottle. I bought 3 bottles and they sold out.

  • @peathead4450
    @peathead4450 Год назад +2

    Interesting list, Alan. Thanks for sharing .
    Not much to add. And if I would, it would be that I personally would prefer bourbon matured whiskies over sherry matured, but that's taste.

      @@jasonwest9425 absolutely RB is great stuff love it, great flavour.
      But I will also vouch for the Bunna 12 Cask Strength 2022, it’s amazing. Even though it’s £74 it’s worth every penny. The 2023 will probably be £90 and I’ll still buy it. If 2024 goes over £100 maybe time to stop.
