Ardbeg is truly one of my favorite whisky brands. But, if I’m being truthful, the last couple years their products and their pricing have been a total miss for me. The only recent product I absolutely loved and was so surprised with was Ardbeg BizarreBQ. Here we have another release that yes, we paid way…

Johnnie Walker High Rye
Alright, when this first came out, I rolled my eyes because honestly, there are way too many ryes out there that are simply, how should I put it… crap! How does this one rate? Well, keep reading. This whisky is composed of 60% rye aged whisky matured in American oak barrels and includes whiskies from…
The Dalmore 14-Year

Chivas Regal XV

This whisky is for those who enjoy whisky on the sweeter side. Nose: sweetness and tropical fruitPalate: caramel,…
Ardbeg BizarreBQ
“Grilling meets distilling,” is the opening line on the back of the Ardbeg BizarreBQ bottle. Ardbeg’s Master Distiller Dr. Bill Lumsden teams up with Christian Stevenson (AKA DJ BBQ) to create this limited expression. Now honestly, this to me is the perfect bromance. Whisky smoke and smoked meats, might definitely, just be the perfect combo….
