Once more, this isn't a proper "best of" list. It can't be as it's impossible for me to have tried everything. Nor can we consider it a chart - I certainly don't maintain such a thing, so it won't be my own best ever either. As we approach the summer break and the half-year point, it is simply pours that have struck me during the year to date. There will be some that have appeared before, but also a few that may be new to your eyes and ears.
It would be amazing if you joined and shared your standouts of 2022 so far because, if we're searching for reasons to hook up and talk whisky, this is as good a topic as any, don't you think?
I really hope to welcome you there!
