Hampstead London Dry Gin | The Booze Review
http://boozereview.co.uk/2013/07/30/hampstead-london-dry-gin
Twice as drunk at half the price. Old Samuel De Luxe Blended Bourbon Old Kentucky Whiskey. Duc De Coeyr Cidre De Normandie →. Hampstead London Dry Gin. July 30, 2013. I’m sorry. That doesn’t even make sense. I guess either the shape of it threw me off, or I was too excited about cheap booze to bother checking what size the bottle is, but looking at it now it does seem kind of stumpy. Booze Review rating: 9/10 deliciouses. This entry was posted in Gin. Duc De Coeyr Cidre De Normandie →. 899 in the UK?

http://manchesterwhiskyclub.blogspot.com/2014/11/duty-free-drams.html
Thursday, November 6, 2014. Our first tasting in August saw us play host to several famous whisky brands and examples of their Travel retail Exclusive whiskies. These are bottles that can only be picked up in airports across the globe and provide an interesting look at different stock as well as providing good value for money in many cases due to the sheer size of the bottles with most being 1 litre in size. Old Pulteney, Noss Head - 46%. Jameson Select Reserve - 40%. Balblair 2004 - 46%. Balblair is a p...

Review of Sons of Liberty: Hop Flavored Whiskey | The Scotch Noob
http://scotchnoob.com/2015/08/10/sons-of-liberty-hop-flavored
Sons of Liberty: Hop Flavored Whiskey (Seasonal) The Scotch Noob. Sons of Liberty: Hop Flavored Whiskey (Seasonal). August 10, 2015. August 10, 2015. My stance in general on flavored whisky is that if sugar is involved, I stay away from it. I also generally don’t review them. Still, I stand by my prejudices, even if I can’t defend them. Sons of Liberty’s Hop Flavored Whiskey is a seasonal release (they also have a Pumpkin one). Distilled from an IPA (India Pale Ale) wash, and then distilled wit...Piercin...

Eagle Rare (10 year) Bourbon The Scotch Noob. Eagle Rare (10 year) Bourbon. June 29, 2015. July 20, 2015. The Great Hunt For My House Bourbon. I recently picked up a bottle of Eagle Rare 10 year, which lately has become better known as the younger and more-available version of the Buffalo Trace Antique Collection’s Eagle Rare 17, which is almost as difficult to acquire as Pappy Van Winkle. Eagle Rare uses Buffalo Trace’s “Low Rye” mash bill, which is shared with the Buffalo Trace. Sweet and a little tart...

Review of Bushmills Black Bush Irish Whiskey | The Scotch Noob

Bushmills Black Bush Blended Irish Whiskey The Scotch Noob. Bushmills Black Bush Blended Irish Whiskey. June 8, 2015. June 7, 2015. I actually keep coming back to the bottle of Black Bush that I bought on a whim. At first for cocktail fodder, and then for something to splash into a glass of ice. I even bought a second bottle (rare for me). It’s bottled at 40% ABV. Note that Black Bush was previously aged more in the neighborhood of 11 years, and has since lost some of that maturity, probably as...A gentl...

The Scotch What? | The Scotch Noob

November 9, 2010. December 22, 2010. I am the Scotch Noob. Oh, sorry. Noob is a meme. As stuffy older gentleman with an ascot and a tee time. Every day, new twenty- and thirty-somethings are waking up to the satisfying world of Scotch as age demographics of Scotch drinkers are skewing ever lower. You don’t have to own a smoking jacket, or play Whist. In order to enjoy Scotch, and (believe it or not) you don’t have to break the bank either. And share your own Scotch stories and favorites.

Review: Oakkits | The Scotch Noob
http://scotchnoob.com/2015/06/22/review-oakkits
Review: Oakkits The Scotch Noob. June 22, 2015. October 14, 2015. The aging-at-home industry appears to be picking up speed lately, with products such as Whisky Elements. Beyond Barrel Aging Masts. Review upcoming), small barrels for home aging. And even wooden bottles. In other words, it hardly makes sense to put a $6 stick of wood into a $30 bottle in order to make the bottle taste like it’s worth $35! When whiskymakers create wine-finished whiskies such as Glenmorangie Lasanta. For matching your spiri...
