This one doesn’t quite rise to the level Justin hit in 2007 - but it’s pretty impressive, especially given that it’s 19 years old. — 18 days ago

One of Glen Moray’s efforts to explore different finishes for single malts, this is scary smooth at 110 proof - exceedingly dangerous! — 2 months ago

It’s over the hill by a few years - still totally enjoyable - but this is the first vintage of Alban’s Reva syrah. Coolness factor is clearly a 10! — 2 months ago
