I was expecting Craigallchie 13, Bunnahabhain,and Aberlour A'bunnah 😌
Good picks!
Glen Scotia Victoriana
Love how enthusiastic you are about Port Charlotte 10, feel the same way 😁 Looking forward to several years from now when Ardnamurchan has older casks.
Fingers crossed!
I don't know where you're finding some of these whiskys in the price ranges you've put them in, but I'd sure like to!
Master of Malt & The Whisky Exchange
I appreciate the enthusiasm for every single category, not just skimming over the cheaper stuff.
Thanks Jimmy!
Solid solid list! I have got to try that Speyburn!
You should!
Good video MA and a great list, the deanston 18 and anConc 18 for older malt’s are still a decent price. Another good 18 year old isTomatin 18 where I am around €80,well worth a purchase. Slàinte
Well said!
Great list. Too bad in the US all these bottles cost 30-50% more expensive
Aw man, that sucks.
@@MaltActivistI can second what he says. It’s ridiculous.
Same for us UK bourbon drinkers, even Boufallo Trace has been watered down 😉
No Ardberg in this list, woaw that’s a surprise 😅. Thanks for sharing. Now I need to find the ledaig.
It's so good!
A viewer from Iceland, shedding silent tears over these prices... At our state run offlicences every run of the mill whisky, single malt or blended or whatever would fall into your highest category and then upwards (and the selection is very poor as well...) If you don´t know frequent flyers willing to carry home a bottle or two then whisky is an over the top expensive and almost hopeless hobby here up north... With that said I was surprised to find a couple of bottles (the cheaper ones) in my collection mentioned in this list... Keep up the good work, it´s nice to be on the outside but get a little glimpse on the inside every now and then... :)
Thanks for stopping by !
Would I be the only lady your Analytics indicates ?
I am a subscriber of your channel and watch most your elucidative videos.
Congratulations !
I think you just might be the only one! Or one of two
😅
A very well thought out choice , not tried a AD yet , Laph cs is my fav go to . Love both 18 , Deanston just tops it for me , but my fav is the Billy Walker Glendronach Allardice bottling . Strange how to me the Ledaig 10 tastes like Laph 10 40% used to taste 20 odd years ago unless my tastes have changed .
Agree with you on the Allardice - special dram that. Though maybe not as good as it used to be. Deanston 18 is my go to as is the Ledaig 10.
Hello and Greets from Germany,
Great List without a Doubt , if i would have something to complain about it,
i would put Bunnahabhain 12 CS on this List too.
Keep up the good work.
😎🤘
Thank you!
Great to see Ledaig getting some love.
Indeed!
great video
Cheers!
I give you four whiskies right below 100£ which are better than the AncNoc in my humble opinion: Glen Scotia 18, Old Pulteney 18, Laphroaig PX Cask, Craigellachie 17. There you go!
My favourite would be the Bunnahabhain 18, but it´s 104£ at the moment and the rules i know, i know.
Great choices you had there! I could make a case for best under 25 would be WT101. I mean it is a beast and bourbon doesn't get that much better......law of diminishing returns or something like that lol Best under 100 currently would be for me the Edradour SV UCF 10yr. Awesome old school dirty sherry profile with a craft presentation. Now it used to be the older Billy Walker Glendronach Allardice would be around 100 delivered from the UK. That was an amazing deal. US pricing too! Now I think the best deals are IBs for me. Cheers boss!
Gotta agree with you on the IBs --- that's what I've been collecting lately
Man I would really appreciate if the laphroaig 10 CS was at that price in Brazil. We can only find it here in one retailer and it is 200£. The regular 10y costs about 60£. Great video 🥃
Damn! £200 ??? That's criminal!
Great video! How about a review of the new Laphroaig Cairdeas?
Coming soon!
looking for Ardbeg and Aberlour on the list...but i like the line up! cheers!
Next video!
Love your reviews. One little comment, I feel that you are yelling at the camera and that’s likely due to the fact that you are wearing headphones.
Great list MA. LL12, Ledaig 10 winners all day! Some are way more expensive than the prices in the GBP.
You mean in Canada right?
@@MaltActivist right
Gosh. Until you got to the last three I have all these in my modest collection of about 20 bottles. I think we share a preferred palate. Lol
Fair enough!
I like the Ancnoc, it does a lot right but is not so complex. In Germany the price is about the same as the Deanston and I would take either over that Speyburn 😁
Fair enough!
Yepp. Thougt it would be like this. When it comes to cheaper and generally younger whisky, peated ones are the way to go. The peat covers up most of the bad things in any whisky. I’d only buy snything from this starting from the Deanston 18. I just don’t like young peated stuff. When it comes to peated whisky toss me a Laphroaig 25, a Bowmore 27 or something in that range. Slàinte mate!🙌🏼🥃
Gotta agree with you, my man!
The Ledaig 10 is utterly fabulous for the price...
It absolutely is
Used to be. In continental europe it’s very hard to find these days and price went high. Much higher than Ardbeg 10.
Ooooh tough love for Ancnoc....with today's conversion: £125 locally.
But its its just good whisky.
I am banging my head against my monitor looking at an indie 6 year Oloroso Ardnamurchin CS for £91. Seems a little expensive. I'll be sad when its gone but I'll survive.
haha you'll be fine, my man
Good list. wow, 28 GBP for a 12 year old 46% ABV. I am sold! All your prices are way lower than what we see in the U.S. For example, I paid $64 for my Ledaig compared to your 35 GBP! I also have Port Charlotte 10, Ardnamurchan AD/09.22 Cask Strength, and Laphroaig 10 Year Old Cask Strength.
Ledaig 10, 65 € in Portugal
@@JR-nl3mh My $65 sounds good. Gibraltar has the best prices!
You're sorted bro
@@MaltActivist like to see your opinions. Brave.
I was interested to your opinion on single malts ranging between 100 - 500£
Alright! I'll do one just for you.
No Campbeltown malts in your list? There are a couple that would fit.
Another list, perhaps?
@@MaltActivist totally, take your time. Whisky world is huge.
Without being ridic, what's a great whiskey if money isn't an issue?
Sounds like a new video needs to be made
When are the "quintessential" t-shirts coming out ? 😊
THAT. IS. A. FABULOUS. IDEA!
criteria is the plural for criterion.....*
Lol the Deanston is way more than the Ancnoc in Australia...
Oh really?
@@MaltActivist well that's if we can get it... haha
No Balvenie Doublewood?
hmmmmm tough call
Nah. 43% hurts it real bad
@@steveno7058Never had a bad Balvenie.🤔
#MaltyAtHisBest
Cheers
Can’t stop at 100. I think 1000 is a better ceiling.
well, we could go on for ever!
1000? More like 100,000
Where are you buying Laphroaig 10 cask strength for £64 ?
Right here: www.masterofmalt.com/whiskies/laphroaig/laphroaig-10-year-old-cask-strength-batch-15-whisky/
It's for 76.95 🙄
That Ardnamurchan for 50 pounds??? You must´ve mentioned an on-sale pric here...
I only see 60 pounds and up, many for 65-70, one instance even at 100 quid... ouch!
Also, with any Laphroaig I get rotting seaweed and what I call "general dying of sea creatures"... which is why I avoid it!
Sold out now (thanks to my video!) --- www.masterofmalt.com/whiskies/ardnamurchan/ardnamurchan-ad-09-22-cask-strength-whisky/
Your comments that sometimes higher aged whiskies are not necessarily better than their younger siblings... I had a bottle of the Old Pulteney 35 and much preferred the 21 year old... and even the 17 was better... the 35 had become too wood dominated..
Yeah, I would expect that to happen. You'd be surprised how many times distilleries discover forgotten casks and then bottle them
