It’s a cold and rainy Monday here in Boston so why not write about a great whisky that comes to mind on a day like today, Old Pulteney 21 year-old. The Old Pulteney distillery is located in Wick, Scotland and was first established in 1826. It is one of the most northerly mainland distilleries located…

Spring is finally here and oh boy, let me tell, I have some great whiskies to write about this Spring, but today I am going to post my fourth post on my Gordon & MacPhail (G&M) whisky series as I’d like finish this out. Here are the past series posts: Gordon & MacPhail Series Post…
Edradour Barolo Cask Matured (distilled 2006 and bottled in 2014)
Although I have mentioned Edradour in my blog before, I have never officially written about an Edradour tasting. So, I am kicking off the week with a distillery I’ve not officially written about. Edradour is known as one of Scotland’s smallest distillery. It’s a highland single malt that was first established in 1825. In 1982,…
Cadenhead Glenallachie-Glenlivet 20 year-old
Sleepy is the word I used to describe how I felt this Monday morning after the daylight savings time moved our clocks one hour ahead. Before I find myself falling asleep and possibly drooling at my desk I’ll share my Cadenhead Glenallachie-Glenlivet 20 year-old post. The Glenallachie-Glenlivet distillery was founded in 1967. The distillery is…
Larceny Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey
I’ve officially had it with all this snow! Over 9 feet of snow within the last few weeks makes me want to move to a nice tropical island. I however suspect we have not seen the last of the snow storms. During last weeks storm I wrote a review about a bourbon, I am going…
Knob Creek Kentucky Straight Bourbon
My apologies for today’s late post and for not posting last week. These snow storms have been crazy! We’re getting another storm now as we speak. I am wondering if I somehow moved to Alaska without knowing it. The upside, whiskey is always perfect on days like these. Today I sampled a Knob Creek Kentucky…
Talisker Storm
Yikes, if you live in Boston or the Northeast, the words being tossed around by meteorologists in your area include: blizzard, potential historic snow amounts (what??) and storm. My first thought was, Yes Snow Day! I get to work from home tomorrow and maybe even Wednesday, sweet, I’ll take it. I felt like a kid…
Jameson 18 year-old Limited Reserve.
Sorry for the late post. Weekends do go by way too fast, and as it’s a holiday here, I’ve been running some errands. While doing a search through my posts I realized I have yet to write about Jameson, so for this post I am going to stick with the Irish whiskey theme for another…

Very Special Old Fitzgerald 12 year-old straight bourbon whiskey
Had I walked into a liquor store and seen Old Fitzgerald I am not sure it would have been a bottle I would have picked up or even glanced at. A friend of my boyfriend introduced me to Old Fitzgerald 12, and even when he showed us the bottle I didn’t think much of it….
