Let's take this review as an example. Longmorn official bottlings exist. Am I gonna pay the hefty price that's required to own one? Not on your life!! Will I pay the (relatively) good price to give SMWS (or other indies) the opportunity to let me try Longmorn (and or other's) delights?? Happily.

#thewhiskeynovice #WednesdaywhiskyreviewJuly 24th Vpub Stand-inWhiskey Novice2025-07-24 | I've reviewed a few Flora & Fauna whiskies in my time. I would suggest I've enjoyed them all but, they do tend to come across as a little similar sometimes. Or do they? Well, the best way to find out (I'm thinking) is to try them side by side but...blindly! I've taken my tasting notes from each of the Flora & Fauna whiskies which I've reviewed and, based on them, I'm gonna see if I can differentiate between them. Here goes!!

#thewhiskeynovice #WednesdaywhiskyreviewJura 10 review #286 with The Whiskey NoviceWhiskey Novice2025-07-09 | Ok so...whiskies I haven't touched upon in the past is the theme. "Well..." you say! "you've reviewed a Jura in the past haven't you?!" And you'd be right. But that was an indy. And I thought it only right that, given how long the channel has been going, I should review an official Jura. So...here goes.

#thewhiskeynovice #WednesdaywhiskyreviewFriend at Hand Girona Gold review #274 with The Whiskey NoviceWhiskey Novice2025-04-16 | To tie in the fact that, the Friend at Hand's Girona Gold is a sherry cask finish, and therefore using barrels from Jerez, Spain...the bottle was named after one of the Spanish Armada (The Girona) which, sank off our Northern coast in 1588. When divers went down to the wreck of the Girona in the late 1960s, they discovered gold within the wreck and, recovered it. That collection is now housed at the Ulster museum in Belfast.
Among that collection was, a salamander broach (pictured on the label of the bottle.) That broach was to contain 9 rubies. However...6 of the rubies are missing, thought to be at the bottom of the ocean.
So, our whiskey, in this case, is called The Girona Gold and The Missing Rubies. The little black bag around the neck of the bottle cotaiins the 6 missing rubies.

#thewhiskeynovice #WednesdaywhiskyreviewBunnahabhain Toiteach A Dha review #266 with The Whiskey NoviceWhiskey Novice2025-02-19 | I've said many times in the past that, in my opinion, there's no other whisky which acts quite like Bunnahabhain acts. Does this (almost unpronouncable) expression also follow that curve??

#thewhiskeynovice #WednesdaywhiskyreviewArdnahoe Infinate Loch review #262 with The Whiskey NoviceWhiskey Novice2025-01-22 | So, let's face it...these guys aren't new to the whisky game! We're talking Hunter Laing here! They've been pleasing us as an independent bottler for quite some time. Some of us were lucky enough to get their hands on a bottle of Ardnahoe's inaugural release and some, myself included, enjoyed it. So...what of their first core release? Well...here's what I thought!

#thewhiskeynovice #WednesdaywhiskyreviewHinch Warehouse 3 Peated Malt review #260 with The Whiskey NoviceWhiskey Novice2025-01-08 | Anyone who watches my reviews regularly, will know that I tend to lean more towards Scotch whisky than any other. There's a reason for that. I prefer Scotch whisky! Irish whiskey has been around a long, long time but...it practically disappeared in the 20th Century. Although it is rebuilding, it'll take time before it re-establishes itself on the world market (outside of your Midleton and Bushmills products obviously!) What might seem like a small gesture from Hinch distillery, may go a long, long way towards cementing it's future as one of the brands to watch in that new establishment! Here're my thoughts on that "small" gesture!
