WB136050 An old Macallan by a french bottler
very nice!
Famous Grouse and Macallan used to be Edrington owned. I came across a cask maybe a year ago of the blended malt. It had Macallan, Glenturret, Highland Park and a couple other malts in it and the pricing was super good
Interesting!
Good review but at £60 it's too pricey for me. Plenty of better options at that price not least the 10 year old CS for £55 here in the UK. I think prices are coming down to a more sensible level and this type of bottling should be well under £50 imo.
I agree!
The Macallan 2005 Aged 18 Years Gordon & Macphail Speymalt @ 57.3% abv. Cost £225
ouch - too expensive for me
Thank you for this review. I have now ordered a bottle here in Germany. By the way, it will cost me 69,90 €.
well done!
No idea what Sassafras smells like but there are still some Batch #1 bottles out there (I have a few :) ). Thanks Jason, just saved me 99€ 👋
you're welcome!
Here's a good fix for this spirit, which makes it exceptional. Drink about a dram. If you have 1792 small batch, add back the 1 1/2 dram. Amazing. Beautiful bourbon and fruit perfume. Thank me later
That's a great idea!
I live in Virginia and bought my bottle of the Dual Cask at the distillery. It was a gift for friends I was visiting and they enjoyed it. I purchased a bottle today as it was on sale at the ABC for $37 (normally $46). Like Jason, I add water to my whiskey to bring out the flavor. I've had other Virginia brands, but I tend to buy this one. It is a good sipper and friends enjoy it also.
Thanks for sharing!
I had a shot at a wedding. I must say it's better than Hibiki. 💯Loved it
but would you buy a bottle at that price point?
Wow!! No wonder a big box liquor store by me discounted these by 38%. It is selling for $74 USD now’s It is an 11 year old bottled in 2022 that was also matured in a PX puncheon. They finally gave up on them.
Brown-Forman has a slight problem
How was the bourbon?
I liked it!
I'm a massive massive fan of the barrel strength rye and 10 year rye offerings - I know the price points are premium, but the quality is super premium in my opinion.
ENJOY!
Thanks Jason for all the relevant information you provide. I've seen this but never reached for it. Both 2023 and 2024 bottlings are available. I am tempted... But for $169...😬
That is a high price tag - think twice
Jack Daniel's Old No. 7 is a Sour Mash Whiskey
as most bourbons are
@@WhiskyJason1 Actually they're not.The Jack Daniel's Old No.7 has Sour Mash on the label. Whilst the likes of Bulleit, Bulleit Aged 10 Years, Makers Mark, Wild Turkey and Jim Beam named are Bourbon on there labels and so most of the Poppy Van Winkles. The whiskeys are Jack Daniel's Aged 10 and 12 Years, Gentleman Jack along side the Single Barrel Barrel Strength and Uncle Nearest 1856 and 1884
Dude why would you water it down to start with...review the whiskey as it is.
The things that are dug or cut in the wood are called letters and they are engraved. You let 25 year old whiskey breathe for 5 minutes and judge it. Then, as a benchmark, you use 18 year old whiskey, that's been breathing for a year? No, can't take you seriously.
then please find a different whiskytuber - Enjoy!
I had a bottle that looked more like the one that Jason is holding. It’s the older bottling. It was surprisingly decent. Had sort of a buttered popcorn note. Bought a new style bottle and sadly it’s not good at all . Ordinary. Very much a mixer.
Sazerac bought Paddy as a brand a few years and maybe they are using different sourced whiskeys
Jason, can’t find it here in the NE US. I have the Bunna CS 12 Batches 2021,22&23. The 23 has grown on me over the year. I understand it better now. At first not being another 22 was disappointing but over the year it has grown on me greatly having notes of both the 22 and 21. I heard they might not release a 2024 edition? I will still look for the Edradour 12 CS. Really love your reviews!! Please keep them coming! Thank you Neal
Thanks Neal!!!
I just bought a bottle of the batch 10 Glenallachie CS for £55 which I think is good value.
very nice!
Nice one Jason. Unfortunately this isn't available here in SoCal. The only sherry bomb I enjoy at the present is the Arran Sherry Cask... Younger but still good.
This so good!
Ive got the Glentauchers and Linkwood versions so far and they are really good drams, ive got my eyes on a Glen Ord bourbon matured next!
good choice!
I’ve been waiting for your video for Batch 3. Well done Jason🫡
THANKS!
Damn, I was just about to buy this yesterday but I got the Bunna 17 feis ile moine triple cask.
also a very nice bottling!
Answer to your questin of the day my favorit under 100 usd sherry bomb cask strength whisky is Auchroisk 2010/2024 - 13y - Signatory 100 PROOF Edition #12 .it really is one of my favorite, and i promis last time that i’m talking about that bottle
well done - in Germany you could buy two of them for under 100€
@@WhiskyJason1 Jason you are awesome!
The alcohol bottling stages are Sorting, Filling, Capping and Labelling🍎🍒🍓🍅
ok
Any of the sherry matured 100 proof series take the crown of aged stated (pseudo)cask strength whiskies to me.
Have you tried them all? There are like 15+ now
@@shaddepadde Ive tried most of the sherry casked non-peated ones. The Linkwood 10 might be my favourite atm.
@@ziiro91 cool. Have my eye on that one.. Whats your top 3 if forced to choose? :D
@@shaddepadde My top 3 are the Glentauchers, Linkwood and the Mannochmore. I have had most of them and they are all good for the money. Tbf they don't get close to the Bunnahabhian CS and fortunately there is plenty of it available in the UK at the minute.
@@Martin-uj7wj ah okey. Got the glentoucher but havnt tried it yet. Got 2x bunna CS 2022 so i feel safe :D Maybe a linkwood will find its way home. Doh i am curious of and Linkwood 13yo from Adelphi..
Hey Jason, ich habe gerade erst jetzt diese Perle (Video) von dir gefunden. Die Frau ist super, kompetent und super erklärt von ihr. Ich war ein Jahr nach der Eröffnung dort und ich fand es toll, viel Herzblut dabei. Jetzt noch einen leckeren 10 jährigen Whiskey von Teeling kriegen und wir sind glücklich, aber da warten wir noch ein wenig....
Danke Mark!!
Yes, Suntory Kakubin is so widespread and cheap. The Nikka 12, now without the age statement, is called The Tailored, which not so much to my liking. The Nikka Black is s good choice for a daily drinker -- $15 US -- and is apparently what one of Nikka's master blenders prefers. Within Japan Akashi has 4 and 5 yo single malt bottles (500ml--yeah I know) that I think are close to being under $100, but they are more outside of the country. In spite of the price rise, I would still recommend at least trying out Nikka Yoichi NAS and certainly Hibiki NAS as well as the Nikka 12 blended of old.
Hibiki Harmony is so good - no longer a bargain but still very nice!
Nice to see Japanese Whisky get some attention. I can find Kaigan 12Y, The Shin 15Y Malt Whisky, and The Shin 10Y Malt Whisky for under $120. But I have never tried these. I have only had Nikka Coffey Malt Whisky, which I find delightful. Cheers!
I have never heard of the Kaigan 12Y or The Shin 15Y - thanks!
Drink at a 1985 office party 😂 In Australia in 1985, an office party would be mass-produced Australian beer and wine in a box. Can't help you with your question of the day. Did you see Nikka the Grain? Sourced from 4 different Nikka distilleries with 7 different types of grain whisky and blended.
can anyone name the 4 different Nikka distilleries that all make grain??
I should have listed the four distilleries responsible, they are Miyagikyo, Moji, Satsuma Tsukasa and Nishinomiya.
living in the south of France, I don't drink whiskey in the summer. I much prefer to drink them in winter. And maybe that's why I prefer Miltonduff
maybe - but winter is coming!
If you were choosing between the Ancnoc 24 or Glengarioch 17 (3rd Chapter) as a free dram which would you take?
that is a great question - in the summer Ancnoc 24 and in the winter Glengarioch 17 (3rd Chapter)
@@WhiskyJason1That’s cheating Jason ! 🤣
Before I answer the question of the day, I must again express my disappointment that you did not like the Auchroisk whisky in your previous video 😮💨. The answer to your question is whisky base number 159045 Kujira 05-year-old.
thanks!!!
You should have put the Johnnie Walker Aged 12 Years @ 40% abv or something better from Scotland and the Chamber Aged 12 Years @ 53% abv from Ireland both being blended whiskies along side the Nikka Aged 12 Years @ 43% abv for a three way blended whiskey contest
great idea - but I do not have either of those here
You can now buy Ki One from Korea at The Whisky Exchange
Thanks!!
Suntory Hibiki Aged 12 and 17 Years, Togouchi Aged 9 Years all blended whiskys from €100 To €110 if they are still available at that price point
suntory hibiki 17 costs over 500€ here in Germany :-(
I lament the day Suntory Yamazaki 12 prices became prohibitive. Nikka from the Barrel is a go to blend for me. Ohishi Sherry Cask 8 year old rice whisky can be had for $65 here in SoCal, and it's quite good.
I have never seen the Ohishi Sherry Cask 8 year old - thanks!
Thanks for reviewing these Jason. It's good to get reviews on accessible whisky. I have had most of these and not disappointed with any of them as yet. They are probably the best value whisky being offered since 2020 and I for one have been stocking up on them. It can't last forever and having a few dozen of these for future drinking seems a pretty good investment to me. I recently compared the Linkwood to the well liked Edradour Caledonia which is £25 a bottle more and didn't think there was much between them. I really liked the Mannochmore as well. Good stuff.
Value for money is hard to beat!
I’ve really enjoyed the Auchroisk with my friend. The dark, damp forest floor, mocha, coffee type notes are very interesting to both of us. The darkest tasting sherry cask matured scotch either of us have had before. It is also easy to understand why some don’t like this, as the notes are very austere.
none of these were bad - I just liked some better
Would love to buy some of 100proof series stuff but unfortunately it's not really available in my market.
sorry to hear that

I don't agree with you about the Auchroisk, I have it at home and it's just great. Apparently when you drink too much whiskey the taste buds are lost. And in my opinion it is much better than all the Irish whiskey you praise all the time...🏴>🇮🇪
good to disagree
I picked up the Secret Orkney #15 today. I look forward to your review of that. I am aware that Signatory just released another Secret Orkney under number #23, but I specifically chose #15 because it includes bourbon barrels. I expect the mix of bourbon and sherry barrels to be a better fit for HP.
enjoy
Earlier this year Fred Minnick had an interesting video on the possibility and signs of the Bourbon/whisky bubble bursting.
yep watched it
Why not A for value? As you said yourself, Signatory is probably not making any money out of these.
Yeah, it doesn’t make sense on the surface of it. It’s too cheap, but only a C for value? Based on that framing, value should equal to or greater than rating.
ok maybe b
