TM-US Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Anybody try the Glenlivet Guardians Chapter/Exotic? Worth a shot at $65 or complete rubbish? Have to say I'm intrigued by the higher ABV and potential "sherryness" of it. The duty free version that was something like "distillers reserve" was very nice for $70. I heard that this one is similar. Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would have to read the back label because it's not stated on the front.Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM-US Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Something brand new. And an old favourite that was on special How do you like the Master's Keep?Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM-US Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Only wish it were cask strength. 43% seems weak for a 25 yo whisky. Oh well, sure this will still be very good.. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk The older releases are cask strength. Recently Diageo has released a lot of their limited bottlings at 43% unfortunately.

jabster Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Expanding the collection of limited release bottlings from this Melbourne based distillery: Have you tried these yet? Interested to get some and wonder what u think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sengjc Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Have you tried these yet? Interested to get some and wonder what u think Haven't tried these ones yet but the in house PX cask I tried from the old Baranows was really good. The sweetness of the PX sherry complements the fruity spirit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cant imagine a country with a higher taxation on booze and tobacco then aust! And dont even think of importing wine! We have a tax called WET and it absolutely kills you!

Popular Post sengjc Posted September 15, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted September 15, 2015 This year's Ardbeg Supernova SN2015 - supposedly the final release of the series. A selection of bottlings from Diageo's discontinued Flora and Fauna series. Also another bottling from the Lost Distillery Company to join the other two - it was on sale. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destino30 Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 This year's Ardbeg Supernova SN2015 - supposedly the final release of the series. How does that Ardbeg compare with the others in its line? I really like the Uigeadail but the Perpetuum got crummy reviews.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk It's supposedly peatier. I haven't had any though. Not sure why the Perpetuum's got crummy reviews - I think it is decent from the samples I had.
