Glen Garioch 21
An old dusty, clearly from the leather-look case! A very clear departure from GG’s modern approach – there is no 21 year age statement any longer, but rather “vintages” of specific years, such as 1999. A great dram!
Signatory Vintage Glenburgie 25
Another great expression from Signatory Vintage, and another new distillery to this club! Great to experience an affordable 25 year-old at a reasonable price point in the $300 range. Sourced from Alberta.
The Single Cask – Ben Nevis 20
A great dram from an independent bottler – wish we saw more Ben Nevis around Ontario, a friendly place located at the foot of mount Ben Nevis in Fort William, Scotland, but owned by Japanese whisky, Nikka.
Ardnamurchan Paul Launois Release
Another exciting double header from a new distillery for the club, one of the most remote in Scotland! Only producing whisky since 2014, it was a treat to experience Ardnamurchan with so little of its offerings ready/available. We tried both the peated and unpeated versions. Looking forward to what’s to come from this young distillery!
Daftmill 2007 Winter Batch Release
February brought us a double header of lowland single farm estate distillery Daftmill – winter and summer batch releases!
Caperdonich 28
Happy 14th Anniversary ETKW! The Crown Jewel of our 14th anniversary celebration: Lost Distilleries of Scotland.
We will update this post after we have sampled the whisky this evening….but I can tell you it smelled fantastic on the pour!!
Dallas Dhu 1979
Imperial 23
The second bottle in the line up for our 14th anniversary celebration: Lost Distilleries of Scotland.
Linkwood Artist Collective 21 Year
The Club returned to its roots with this rare Speysider, celebrating our official 200th taster bottle (!) by duplicating the very first distillery we featured way back in 2008. Paired with a smooth Davidoff cigarillo from the Dominican to honour the occasion, this whisky delivered the party feel with hints of the tropics, along with vanilla, chocolate, warm baking spices and a touch of tobacco. This was our first taste from independent bottler La Maison du Whisky, with a great first impression from the lovely artwork on the packaging. This bottle spent 21 years in a refill sherry hogshead. 1428 bottles were released. 58% ABV. Sourced from a private collector. Congratulations ETKW on this extraordinary milestone!
