Easttide Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 My local wine shop had a deal on Tussock Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc for $5.99. Next lowest price on WineSearcher was $15. Naturally, this is a case buy. Not quite as much citrus as some of the more popular ones, but more well rounded. Might grab another case as this stuff goes down like water on the deck in the summer!

Popular Post stevem Posted May 26, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted May 26, 2016 Purchased this 3-4 year Travel Retail version of Kilchoman from the World of Whiskies shop at Gatwick Airport. Kilchoman, although a young whisky, is my favourite peated expression from Islay currently and I am working my way up to eventually purchasing their 12yr. High praises to the folks at Kilchoman for taking the time to do things right. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevem Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Big Kilchoman fan here. How is this one different from the other regular releases? How was it matured? Thanks! "Proportion" of Barley from Coull Point (although how much isn't stated) adds a hint of marine saltiness to the Clove and Vanilla, bit of wintergreen and avocado on the nose. They blended 4 & 5 yr old whisky aged in fresh American Bourbon (Oak) barrels, the 4yr was finished in Sherry Olorosso casks for 4 weeks which ticks the sweetness up a tock, however doesn't follow through in the finish. I am a big fan of the Old Pultney 17yr, and I see this as a peated, spiced version of this, albeit less mature/complex version of this.

LLC Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 I'm much more knowledgeable about wine than Port at this point but I am starting to have it more often as it is great with a cigar after dinner. Pick a few of these two up today. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
